Proposal: CHI-COL: Big deadline trade

Avs would have interest in Seth Jones, but only if the number was around 7.5M or less. There would also be a few other teams interested in that, so I understand that there would be a sweetener.

However, as others have pointed out, Seth Jones at his full contract is a negative asset for most teams (even though I'm a fan of the player). So I think it's either you retain on him at some point or you just accept that you're keeping him. It's not like his value is going up with age either.

Otherwise the Avs would probably just go after a guy like Murphy and run him and Manson on the 2nd/3rd pair
 
6 years of retention?

Colorado doesn't have the assets
Jones without retention? Chicago isn't putting up the assets.

Jones without retention doesn't make sense for a team trying to contend. A team who's rebuilding and doesn't mind the dead cap to gain a few first rounders makes more sense.
