Rumor: 2026 Trade Rumors and Free Agency: Offseason Edition

[CobraAcesS]

This is why I’m hoping Bednar has an important offseason. The Avs didn’t lose a hard fought close, 6 or 7 game series.

They got waxed 4-0, after being the top team in the league. No one looked good. Everyone underperformed.

He can’t just blame a few injuries on everyone looking bad.

Yeah, if there is one thing, Bednar has the ability to grow. We know that from his first season to his second lol.

Let's just hope his assistant hire addresses his weakness this time.

I would kill for Tangs man, ahhh, I'd be offering him double his salary to jump ship if possible.

Has he grown at all since then though? Seems like he has run the same system for many years and this team no longer can handle it. It worked great when the team was a bunch of mid 20’s players who could keep up with the attack and back checking required. Now that it’s become an old as hell team, he’s still running that system.

Many here have noted how out of synch him and management have been. They keep giving him older and slower players and he’s too stubborn to adapt a system that can better fit their abilities.

Guys, we already have Bendar thread. Let's not muck up this one with talk about him, too.

Fine fine fine. Necas for Tippett and Sanheim, get’er done!

I won’t give up on Lafrenière being traded here . Yes yes I know. cap , assets bla bla bla. Drury Nuke/Colton to NYR. Wishful thinking

It’s really interesting that Larkin is only 29 years old. Seems like he’s been in the league for very long time and should be older

It's your fault

It's your fault

Why is it my fault? I did not sleep with Larkin’s mom

Bednar still the coach, shakes head

I'm pretty damn sure Brock is a fine player. He sucked in the playoffs. So did literally everyone else for the Avs.

We need a change in coaching, no more tinkering with the roster beyond what is necessary for cap reasons and acquiring that LHD.

Brock was a special kind of suck. He played with the intensity of drinking a cup of coffee at 8 am. Three points - including two empty net goals - in 13 games? 48% xGF from the Selke finalist? I'm willing to blame a lot on Bednar, and think he should've been shitcanned, but Nelson's pitiful postseason performance (two years in a row) is on him.
