Rumor: 2024-2025 Trade Rumors and Free Agency Talk | The Slow Crawl to the Season

I am willing to be a bit more patient with Mitts. He has been a bit better the last couple of games.
He also performed really well in the playoffs last year. I’d guess whatever is going on is something mental like the change of scenery/honeymoon phase of the new team being over and now him having to adjust or he’s playing through an injury. Guys don’t forget to play hockey in their prime generally
 
God how I wish we could reverse last year's Byram/Mittelstadt trade and look elsewhere.

Casey Mittelstadt has become horrendous.
Maybe we can healthy scratch him a game or two, once Nuke comes back and run

Drouin Nate Nuke
Lehky pars Mikko
Kivi Colton LOC
Fel Kelly innala
 
Unless you can find a way to get a Mitts upgrade at 2C, ideally with term. My backup preference would be to get Brock Nelson as a rental and just pray Mitts turns it around.

I’ve been debating the merits of this, it would force the Avs to be even more top heavy, but if he could return to the 100 point two-way C it could be worth the risk. If he continues to play as a lame duck 2C at 11.6 the contention window is guaranteed closed
It’s also closed if Mitts has permanently turned into a pumpkin
