Extension in place I assume? Or it'd be a big brain move if he comes back July 1st lol.

F***.

Necas is the Mikko replacement. He's not a C... Now if the Avs traded for him to be the 2C I'll be f***ing livid...

 

[expatriatedtexan]

I thought Necas was a winger?

 

[Vaslof]

It’s dumb and I hate it

I thought his name was Kasperi Kotkaniemi hence the KK. He does happen to have a brother named that.

 

[Frenchy]

It’s dumb and I hate it

well Kotkaniemi didnt invent the light bulb

 

[Grackle Party]

Still has to be something with the Hawks if think with all the scouting etc..

 

[Alienblood]

Cause we are get

There's still more to this. Why would Chicago be scouting us if they were only sending Hall to Carolina

Cause we are getting Jones too and Kotkaniemi

I wouldn't think so, Chicago wouldn't be eating 50% of his new deal.

 

[Avs9296]

There has to be another Av on the way out doesn't there? Necas and KK combined make more than Rantanen was making, do we even have the cap space for it right now?

 

[Foppa2118]

Trying to figure out if alcohol will help or hurt this head spinning feeling I have right now.

 

[Alienblood]

Losing Mikko and Landy in only a few years is brutal. No way we'll be a better team without him.

Landy is coming back

 

[RoyIsALegend]

I have a feeling this won’t be finalized until the Hawks-Lightning game finishes.

Ya something still not adding up for me.

Jesse is shocked, Meghan is sad.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

I hope our pro-scouts have done a ton of work on KK and see something there we can develop/use. I just see him taking the place of a league minimum contract without all that much of an increase in performance.

 

[Avs_19]

No Jesperi!

 

[dahrougem2]

This feels like another instance of CMac/Bednar being on completely different pages.

Bednar is going to HATE Kotkaniemi.

Unless the plan is to ship him out in a different deal, this looks brutal. We're going to be stuck with a 4.82M 4th liner in Bednar's dog house.

 

[tucker3434]

Jesse is shocked, Meghan is sad.

I’m both.

 

[the_fan]

Is Kotkaniemi really bad or is he better than someone like Colton? Maybe CMac can trade Colton now?

 

[Balthazar]

Jesse is saying there are reports that Colorado may not be done

KK to Chicago please

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

No KK?

 

[forsbergavs32]

Ya something still not adding up for me.

Yep, there's no way Davidson was scouting us that heavily just to retain on Mikko for a 3rd

 

[The Abusement Park]

Nice

 

[dahrougem2]

Hold up now, this is better. Thank god
