Confirmed with Link: Blackwood traded to Colorado

[CobraAcesS]

We need to trade for matthew wood

If there is a Woodcock in the league now we must trade for him.

I don't know with some of the names I've never seen now though.

The return of Kiefer Sherwood?

 

[arun]

And team can only play in sher-wood gear

Shwood suggestion


I was not on board with the wood jokes, but it seems resistance is futile.

 

[Bone Breaker]

apparently there is a goalie prospect called Camden Wooderson. they should draft him asap. better stockpile all the wood we can on net!

Is Blackwood a good puck handler? I'd love a good puckhandling goalie to help our D.

 

[Richard Doll]

Blackwood doesn’t seem that much of an upgrade, but I guess anything to get rid of Georgie. Sure seems expensive if Kovelenko and a second was the price we had to pay to get rid of him.

Kovelenko wasn’t going to be a star, but he had potential to be a solid third liner.

You wanna know if he's good with his wood?

Giovanni Smith is a goon who was on waivers yesterday

Smith was my last name once too!

"Plays the puck intelligently" was in his scouting report on EP, so likely not a negative skill. I don't have premium access so I can't see if they rated it.

Then you took your husband’s name?

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Those three goalie coaches should immediately be fired for harboring that egregiously bad opinion. Unless of course, they work for the Oilers, Golden Boys or Mild

 

[Richard Doll]

He doesn't have to be. He's only 28...if he works out I wouldn't be surprised to see him sign an extension. Would be best case scenario for the Avs so they can stop using assets on goaltenders every other f***ing year.

We traded a second and Kovelenko, we just traded assets

 

[Mike C]

Then you took your husband’s name?

Good one!

Husband, wife, isn't it all the same in today's new millennial way of thought??

 

[forsbergavs32]

Any chance SJ gets mixed up and sends us Will Smith by accident?

 

[CobraAcesS]

This is why I thought it, but didn't say it lol.

RIAL doesn't do PC though.

Only if he slaps someone on the other team a couple times a year.

I'm a 70s school yard rat from Brooklyn NY---nothing sacred!!

 

[CobraAcesS]

I know it's not a deep list, but Blackwood could be on team Canada. I just realized that looking through some recent news on him.

 

[The Merchant]

We traded a second and Kovelenko, we just traded assets

That's my point

 

[ASmileyFace]

Go f*** yourself Georgie...

Cheers to taking a chance on someone else.

 

[The Abusement Park]

The return of Kiefer Sherwood?

He's having an insane fantasy season this year lmao.

 

[CobraAcesS]

Found conditions on the 5th rounder

Per the San Jose Sharks, these are the terms of the conditional fifth:

“Colorado will instead transfer the worse of their current fourth-round selections in 2025 (Colorado’s own or Vancouver’s selection) if at least two of the conditions are met:

“- Colorado advances to the Third Round of the NHL Playoffs in 2024-25

“- Blackwood wins 25 regular season games from the date of the trade to the end of the 2024-25 regular season

“- Blackwood starts 30 NHL Regular Season games from the date of the trade to the end of the 2024-25 regular season”

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

The thing that pisses me off about this isn’t the player, it's what they gave up to get him.

Grier acquired Blackwood for a 6th round pick a year ago. That's it.

Today, CMac gave up a quality young NHL player (Kovalenko) with upside, a goalie in Georgiev that while he hasn't great the last year, we have seen can be quite good when he isn't f***ed up mentally, a 2nd round pick, a 5th round pick that can become a 4th round pick, and retained 14% of George's salary... and Blackwood is a UFA at the end of the season.

Just seems like a massive overpayment and terrible asset management.
