How involved is Sakic in this stuff anymore? He hasn't been the GM for nearly 3 years...did Sakic have a stroke??...
He’s still President of hockey Ops. He’ll be involved, especially if it’s a massive deal like Jones.How involved is Sakic in this stuff anymore? He hasn't been the GM for nearly 3 years
Would Jones with enough retention be the worst thing for the 3rd pairing? We have had some real struggles there throughout the season. Have not watched the Hawks, so no clue if he is still at least reliable in his own zone at least
Yes....he is. Just not at a 1D level. He would be Colorados 3rd best d man....no...he is not...

Well, the wild did play pretty good considering their injuries....maybe he just wants to watch a good team play for a while...
So like what Florida has done with the 2014 draftImagine MacKinnon, Drouin, and Jones all on the same team. 3 of the top 4 from the 2013 draft. Hockey is so weird sometimes.
Mackinnon for JonesObviously Nathan mackinnon

Really the only pieces that make senseMackinnon for Jones
Kaiser would be a young option. Martinez fits the veteran version contending usually go forAvs need a PKing dman. Kaiser or Martinez might work.
Probably scouting Rantanen. Which is unfortunate because he kind of sucks when you actually watch him play. They're better of just scouting his stat line.
Agreed. He should be nowhere near the highest paid guy in the league, and it sounds like that's what he is looking for. But for fun,
Rantanen+Mittelstadt
For
Seth Jones+Teravainen/Bertuzzi+Hall?
Gives Bedard a guy to play with who has all the experience in the world, and can be a great second fiddle. gets rid of Jones, and they get a 2C.
Avs look at it as Jones@ 9.5>Mikko@ 13+ long term. Also gives them a couple forwards to replace those lost, one signed for cheaper than Mikko long term and a rental who can maybe be a bit of a driver on his own line better than Mitts seems to be for them?
Or maybe it's Mikko for Picks that they turn around and use elsewhere to fix the roster.
