It's possible they tried and Ritchie was a stumbling block. I get the feeling that Pit is going to screw this up if they keep holding out for a massive return.
I think any rumor of Saros being available was before they went on their run.

I'm not advocating for trading Ritchie, but wouldn't having a long term solution for the 2C position in Mitts make Ritchie more expendable? Likewise, our defensive depth took a hit, so maybe Gulyaev increases in value from a team prospect pipeline perspective?
Chabot is excellent. and Greig is 9nly 4C temporarily and maybe 3 C.
Chabot is certainly not overpaid. He is.one of the best and is better than Toews
I'm hindsight would.have been so simple to just keep Kadri lol. Now we traded for a worse center who is about to.make as much if not.more.Yeah I was a little annoyed earlier by thinking of how if we just signed Kadri we could have kept Bo as well. Definitely two of my favorites and were so huge in our cup run, I will forever love them.
I don't think this board was going to make it to Friday, did you read this thread before the trades yesterday?
Considering they were in a ton of rumors around him yesterday and the leaders apparently at some point, it's hard to think they're out of it. Teams circle back.

Like he would know. He certainly didn't on the 2 moves the Avs made yesterday. (he should have checked this forum)
No...that's not the way you do it. Essentially, this gives the Avs the luxury of letting him develop at his own pace without the need to try and hurry him along. If at some point he's 20-21 and too good for the AHL... then you have a nice problem on your hands and you can make a decision at that point but it's 2-3 years away and by no means a sure thing... even though he's looking great so far.

It's filled. Avs clearly wanted to ensure they had proper depth, and they got it with Walker.

What about Ullmark to the Avs (with some retention by a 3rd team)
Lindholm to Boston
Guentzel to Vancouver

Is he a rental and should the Avs re-sign? Is this another Manson where we should let him go?
Rantanen for Chabot is something the Sens wouldn't do.
Yeah Ritchie could turn out as good as Greig but Greig is here now. Adding Ritchie is what would get Ottawa to bite maybe
Imagine if you switched Chabot and Toews and he was on the ice with Mack and Makar always.
plus we still have Nuke who is a better all around player than Mikko and much more important to winning
The Avs woukd do that trade in a heartbeat. Mikko is going to a want 12 plus while Chabot is getting 8.

Avs get Ullmark for nothing and Pens lose Guentzel for nothing?
What am I missing?
And Pittsburgh just says ‘Thank you sir, can I have another?’ when they get nothing in this trade?

I'd re-sign Walker... he's not a big physical D that wears down nearly as quickly. I don't think he has more than 3 years of similar level play left in him (I expect a Toews like regression to happen), but he can add a lot during those years and those are the most critical for this core.
The only downside to Walker is a G-Walker pairing is rather small. They are going to have to be elite at retrievals in the playoffs consistently. Which both are elite players at that, so it should work well... just a concern to keep an eye on.
