Why? He's a low-end 2C but a billion times better than what you already have (which is no 2C).
He's a wing. Saying hes better than Johansen isnt saying much. The Avs would be settling. This is a half pregnant approach. If they're paying the ask here, it needs to be for a legitimate C. Otherwise, just save the assets and go the buy low route and hope for the best. Its not much different than hoping for the best with Scmaltz as a C except the buy low route would be less costly.
Also, I dont follow him avidly but my familiarity with him is that, at least up until fairly recently, he's been very streaky...he scores a lot of points in two weeks and then hibernates for two months. Thats not what the Avs need either. They had too much of that on last years team.
Schmaltz would be the Avs settling and wishing in the left hand and spitting in the right hand while hoping the left hand fills up first.
