That's absolutely horrendous wtf. Seth Jones has no value at $9.5M.


Edit: Ok reading some of the replies things appear to have at least gotten somewhat closer...


IMO:


- Remove Dickinson
- Move his $2.125M retained over to Jones, so Jones would come to Colorado at $7.375M.
- Replace Manson with Wood



Mittelstadt + Ivan + 2026 1st + Wood for Jones(@7.375M) + Donato



I'd be tempted to do that one but I probably wouldn't pull the trigger unless the Avs had a separate deal lined up for a better 2C then what Donato would be for us. I like Donato quite a bit but more as a utility middle 6 guy then a pure 2C.


Maybe Chicago fans feel that deal isn't any good at that point but IMO Jones has to be retained down to $7.5M before he starts to enter positive value territory and without that retention I dont think the Avs would have any interest in him.
 
Drouin-MacKinnon-Necas
Lehkonen-Donato-Nichushkin
Wood-Drury-Colton
Kiviranta-Dickinson-O'Connor

Toews-Makar
Girard-Jones
de Haan-Malinski

This roster is (at best) a wash, but costs $3.4M more.

Colorado isn't touching this deal.

$3.4m more this season… limiting cap space moving forward… plus giving up a 1st round pick.

This is an easy pass.
 
Terrible for the Avs how about Josh Manson for Seth Jones retained salary and a 1st rounder if the Avs are taking Jones contract 1 for 1.
