Holy shit I just realised how many threads have been lost.

Guy seems like he's got a good head on his shoulders. Really focused and driven, never deviates or distracted by extra curricular, etc.
The current construction, nuke.
It's not close. As long as we assume Nuke keeps playing.
The real question is Nuke & Nelson/Necas or whatever other combination equals anything close to 12M.
The comparison really should be whoever is here next year out of Necas/Drury/Lindren/Nelson/Coyle vs 12M Mikko,
OR whatever combination of those guys this year equals Mikko’s 9 and change he’s paid now.
Nuke has averaged 44 goals per 82 games played over the last two years and is the best defensive winger in the NHL. He’s done that while mostly carrying his own line 5v5 too.
This tweet was made the day Nuke returned.
Since then, the Avs haven’t lost in regulation and their record overall is 8-0-1.
He’s arguably more valuable to the Avs than Rantanen without even factoring contracts. But at half the cost? It’s not even a discussion.
The question with Nuke is obviously the other shit.

That's what I have been thinking too Cousin Eddie. Nuke has been so good and consistent, why not give Rants A to Nuke.
Show by example type.
