GDT: 2024 NHL Trade Deadline

[Colorado Avalanche]

This is the best quote.

So is Fourgiev working enough?

 

[Mighty Makar]

No he's still under contract next year at 5M AAV

50% retained, dude.

I wonder why it took so long then. Also I don't care if the Avs lose tonight. All I'm talking about is Guntzel lol

 

[henchman21]

People think Toffoli is too slow for the Avs but Mittelstadt isn't fast either.

Toffoli is exactly the kind of sharp shooter that would benefit from CM's playmaking abilities.

Speed is insanely overrated. How players burst and with what paces they can play is far more important than if they skate 23mph with a clear sheet of ice.

They apparently had to find the team willing to absorb the salary/buyout

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

This is true.

So basically they know his long-term number already?

 

[Mighty Makar]

CGod.

??? Because they needed a dman to make sure they could move Byram for Mittlestadt.

And it seems like they needed to wait until the sellers were willing to move their dmen to maximize value.

Plus they needed to find a team willing to take on RyJos salary and cap hit.

 

[Avs_19]

Avs must've offered the same deal for Tanev.

You being here right now while CMac is having a press conference has scratched option one off my list of magically calling for the exact players we keep getting. Now I’m left to think you are either a witch or in a big pile of trouble for not sending people winning lottery numbers

I agree. Taffoli is legit. Proven sniper. Very consistent player. I wouldn’t have any concerns in acquiring him.

 

[Alienblood]

I’m on beer 3 for my cousins graduation party. Gonna beat @henchman21 by the end of the night

Will start now and have 20 gone by the time the Avs game is over lol

 

[forsbergavs32]

Altitude was barely able to put a positive spin on losing RyJo...Their key points were 51% faceoffs and his whole 13 minutes of ice time.

He’s just in a big pile of shit.

Major respect to CMac for waking up today and thinking:

Seems like they first tried to make that move with Calgary, when that failed because Calgary would not take RyJo, they somewhat had to start over.

I imagine the Bo trade had been in the pipe for awhile.

 

[Avs9296]

Gotta give CMac some credit. He recognized he f***ed up big time with Tatar and Johanson but he pivoted quickly and shipped both out in the same season they were signed/traded for.

Depth stuff. We can get more shit done before the deadline.

 

[AVSfan2daMAX]

MacFarland redeemed himself with the fanbase in only a couple hours.

Good thing he's running the team and not HFAvs.

 

[Balthazar]

I'm pretty sure CMac is reading social media...perhaps this forum too

 

[AvalancheSpeedsters]

To be fair and maybe it’s just me , he had done so with his draft trades earlier this year

Well, a lot of people wanted exactly who he got for #2 center.
