I played in a rental last night for the first time in like 6 years I was horrible, my hands are bricks. How do I disqualify myself from the 2C job?

I love bricks

It's amusing how Henrique was a realistic target when Lindholm, Monahan, whatever else was still on the board.

The moment Henrique became the best option available, the Avs switch to crap like Kerfoot.

We will just never pay what it takes to get the best player available. Always go bargain shopping in the scrap heap.

Maybe the Avs leaked that rumor on purpose to keep the price for Henrique within reason

They should just bring back Kadri at this point. Bring our boy home, I’m sure he wants to win over the dumpster fire that the Flames are gonna become. Dump Johansen on Calgary and whatever else it takes.

We’re not really sure if all the Kerfoot rumors are legit, but if they are and CMac really wants to get him, where is the fit for Kerfoot on this team? How would he help this team? I just don’t understand. If it really happens, CMac gets Kerfoot after the failed trade getting RyJo, I’ll probably lose all my faith for this management. They were saying on DNVR that Kerfoot doesn’t even play center now

Kerfoot is currently playing LW, but he's mostly played C this year.

His 559 face-offs rank 2nd on the Coyotes. His most common lines this year, per Dobber Hockey:

	LW	C	RW
17.6%	Keller	Kerfoot	Schmaltz
11.6%	Zucker	Kerfoot	Carcone
8.6%	Kerfoot	McBain	O'Brien
7.5%	Kerfoot	Hayton	Schmaltz
6.3%	Zucker	Kerfoot	Crouse

Listed as LW on their top line with Hayton at C and Schmaltz ar RW. All three of those guy could, and have played C before.

Yeah but Kerfoot is gonna be another RyJo as far as production goes. Maybe not lazy as RyJo, but hardly productive that helps the Avs in any way

We're all freaking out over Kerfoot when the Avs real target just scored a SHG.

I just checked all the scores from today’s games, I don’t see anyone scoring a SHG…

Oh wait, Sturm did LOL… yeah let’s get him, Kerfoot, Eller and Nieto back!!!

 

[Alienblood]

Honestly, jokes aside, I’d almost be willing to just accept we can’t get a 2C in season and we got two 3Cs to cover talent with depth.

yes and that might quiet the fans .I think they know this isn't the year again and will reset for next year

 

[JH21]

I will lose my mind if Kerfoot is the only addition.

You should. That will probably change things lol

 

[lonelybadger]

Starting to run out of years though.

Kerfoot's 35 points would be tied with Toews for 5th most on our team.

1 more than Drouin who half you guys love who is playing alongside Mackinnon.

He wouldn’t be an upgrade to the roster unless you’re getting Kerfoot to replace Kiviranta or Wagner on the 4th line, but even then, is Kerfoot really a 4th line player? Someone that’s gonna grind with Cogs, LOC or whoever ends up on that 4th line. Are they getting Kerfoot to replace Drouin, or be a 3C? He’s definitely not a 2C. I just don’t see a fit for him on this team. Should just stay away

 

[BrickNHL]

Aves scouts at the Sabres game. They were there for both weekend games

Let’s go f***ing get Casey Mittelstadt

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

Kerfoot would be this deadlines Eller.

Totally pointless

Best I can do is Jeff Skinner

That would be cool.

Wouldn’t they rather trade their « third line » centre Cozens

 

[RoyIsALegend]

As Brick stated...



We've been at 3 of the last 4 Sabres games and both this weekend.

Oh come on, Ellar had 7 points.

 

[Mighty Makar]

Fatty and EJ?

I'm not saying he would be a savior but he would be 10x better than Johansen who he would be replacing so yes, our team would be better.

We are not trading Byram or Girard because then who replaces them? We might in the offseason because Behrens should be ready then Gulyayev can come over the next year.

We aren't trading Ritchie either so realistically, what will our 1st get us? We don't have any other top prospects either.

I think it will be either Kerfoot or Wennberg. I don't think our 1st and a B level prospect will be the best offer for Henrique.

Drouin- Mackinnon- Nichushkin
Lehkonen- Kerfoot- Rantanen
Wood- Colton- O'Connor
Parise- Wagner- Cogliano
