Rumor: AVS Proposals/Rumors/Free Agents & Roster Moves (related topics)

What cable do you have?

I have Directv and get both home and away broadcasts.

I think it's the same on Xfinity

I can't deal with Dish, I'd rash brave Comcast's BS than deal with the problems the satellites have during weather, especially rain/wind. The places I've lived lately just have too much of it all year. Hell Florida could be in the 80s and storming with high wind gusts lol.

In Colorado Springs I had Dish back in 2007, and I jacked myself up trying to climb up and break all of the ice off of the damn thing after an ice storm lol.

Bobby Mac says the Avs, Bruins, Rangers, and Coyotes are 4 teams that have a very significant interest in Trouba but they don't have the proper fit right now. He thinks unless the ask of a top young LHD changes, this one might drag on for a while.

I hate the new NHL and teams' website layouts. Things are so much more spaced out. So much more scrolling to see any info on each page. Open a page...scroll, scroll, scroll. Open another page...scroll, scroll, scroll again. All I do is scroll now. And pages take longer to load as well. Very poor job.

I still don't know how to find the season schedule and results for a team. When I filter I get five games instead of 82.

I use ESPN for stats now.

Have been really busy the last few weeks and haven't been reading much on here. How have our PTOs looked in camp and do any of them make the team?

I smell a three team deal coming...

Yea I think it'll drag out too. None of those teams really have what the Jets are looking for. Except the Avs with Bigras. I doubt they trade Z. Then there's the issue of cap space, which seems could only be solved by moving Varly which is super risky right now, or Iggy who doubtfully wants to move at all, let alone right before the season.

Unless the Yotes are willing to part with Chychrun, and the Jets are ok with taking an 18 year old D instead of one similarly aged to Trouba like they're looking for, I could see this going till the trade deadline.

 

[raistlin76]

Don't think Jets needs Varly as they have Hellebuyck who is their goalie of the future. I think if we want to get Trouba one of Bigras or Zadorov goes other way. I don't think it's something I'd like to see.

Why would the Jets do this?

Not that I'm a supporter of moving Bigras or Zadorov, but even if we did, we literally do not have the cap space to make the move.

 

[Thepoolmaster]

Probably horrible value and obviously fantasy but What about

EDM
Barrie

WPG
RNH + 3rd

AVS
Trouba

With the addition of Larson the oilers could use a puck mover. Draisaitl is going to make the nuge expendable this year.

The Avs move Barrie (although I wouldn't want to because I think he brings a unique presence to the backend)

Avs get Trouba to play the right side. Would be a great partner for Zadorov I think in the future.

The jets get a center to give a one two punch of scheifle RNH.

 

[Cousin Eddie]

Avs get worse by swapping Trouba with Barrie. Plus Barrie has a sweetheart contract. Trouba doesn't have a contract.

 

[henchman21]

If the Avs really want Trouba... we are talking about a deal around Trouba/Duchene or Trouba/Landy.

If i'm using Duchene or Landeskog i would aim for Lindholm instead.

 

[henchman21]

Yep.

 

[Cousin Eddie]

Mckenzie saying Anaheim are trying to get Lindholm signed in the range of 5-5.4million AAV. Thinks Lindhom is hoping for something in the 6's.

WHY GOD WHY. I wish we had the room to send a ridiculous OS. Not that they ever happen but I'd be perfectly fine giving Lindholm a 7 year deal with the AAV starting with a 7 as well.

I'm going to guess that Anaheim will give in and give Lindholm 5.75-6m per, but they will jettison Fowler for futures sometime during the first half of the season. That is where the Avs should jump in IMO.

OS don't commonly happen for a reason... It would be better to trade for Lindholm's rights than to sign him to an OS. In that case, the Avs would be dumping enough salary to give room for a ~6m deal.

I don't think so anymore. Did you see Mckenzie answer the question as to why no Hall/Trouba swap happened? He said the Jets feel set down the left side, and so allocating 6 million in cap space to another player for that position wouldn't be wise. That would eliminate Landeskog. Duchene, I suppose could still make sense, but they have Scheifele and Little as centers.

Not to mention a guy sitting out with no contract, who has requested a trade, who also has character and development question marks, isn't going to land a first line player. He will return a ton of value, but it won't be in a one for one.

My point is there isn't a deal to be made with the assets the Avs have, the only deal is one that favors the Jets significantly and Landy/Duchene fit that mold.

 

[tigervixxxen]

They might want an equal LD back but who is going to make that trade? If you already have a good young LD presumably under contract then why trade for an unsigned guy? I don't think anyone is that desperate for righties.

 

[The Pwnerer]

Trading Trouba within our division, they are going to ask for the moon. I think we should stay away, I also don't want to face the player we would be trading 8x(?) a year, whomever it would be.

 

[henchman21]

I wonder if Boston makes a run at Trouba... A Krug + swap for Trouba makes some sense.

 

[Pokecheque]

Someone on NHL Radio said it's gonna be highly unlikely teams opt for any trade that isn't 1-for-1 because of the upcoming expansion draft. So Winnipeg likely won't go for any 2-for-1 because they might not be able to protect said player in 2017.
