That made me spit out my coffee!He comes with a 1st round pick

For me, I would love to add Kane, but the package could only include one of Newhook or Byram. I understand if Chicago balks at that, but the Avs shouldn't give up both in any deal for one player.
No doubt. Sakic is a patient and shrewd GM. He wouldn’t trade both Newhook and Byram and would probably not trade Newhook for anything
Kaut + 1st is as far as Colorado is going
Am i missing some news on Byram? I thought his head injuries had him depart hockey for the unforeseeable future and sadly he may never play hockey again. Why would the Hawks give up Kane for such uncertainty?
I am curious to hear an Avs response to this. I thought Byram was out for season.Am i missing some news on Byram? I thought his head injuries had him depart hockey for the unforeseeable future and sadly he may never play hockey again. Why would the Hawks give up Kane for such uncertainty?

Sakic maybe shrewd but he isn't stupid. Colorado window is only open for the next 2 to 3 years at most. Kane is still a top 10 player , future hall of fame player who any team sees adding him would make them a dangerous team . Byram and those young assets would be worth the price to win a cup or 2 .... remember those young kids do nothing for the team now or in the near future to win...
He’s been skating in Denver the last week or so, but no update on returning. Hasn’t been ruled out though either.
There are question marks around Byram's health but he isn't a "young kid" or prospect anymore. He's a contributing member on the Avs roster, when healthy. Same for Newhook, who is the teams 3C currently.Sakic maybe shrewd but he isn't stupid. Colorado window is only open for the next 2 to 3 years at most.

imagine thinking the Avs only have a 2-3 year window at most lmao. Apparently MacKinnon, Landeskog, Rantanen, Makar, and Girard are all exiting their primes…
Could you imagine if we needed a goal in the final minute?
Landeskog-Rantanen-Kane
MacKinnon-Makar
Good God... Will never happen though.
True.If you were down a goal in the final minute, wouldn't you have 6 attackers on the ice instead of 5?
So you understand and acknowledge that it was a joke. but you're using the joke as a basis for your opinion and statement?I know it was a joke but it sums up my point that avs fans think that kaut +1st is some major package which is ridiculous.
I definitely would not say vastly more.Kane at 5.25M is worth vastly more than broken Eichel at 10M.

Most teams windows are only a couple of years especially with a salary cap that creates parity... age isn't the only factor . Chemistry , lucky bounces , goaltending, depth , injuries. Colorado was a better team last year and they still didn't make it to the finals...
Colorado could use some veteran leadership and players to get them over the hump...
Still waiting to hear from you Avs fans on why Byram holds any trade value at all considering the liklihood he never plays again
