Because 80% of posters here are shouting rumours, false narratives and making polls that Mikko wanted 14mil from the Avs, here is something from the only guy who has constant solid info from this organization.

Pierre LeBrun from The Athletic:

80% of your posts are just bashing the Avs. Are you even a fan?

And if you are, and you watched the games, you'd see there is something wrong with this team. You need to stop comparing every move to that team that won the Cup. That was a stacked team and the stars finally aligned after what 2-3 years of not getting to the finals.

Ehhh, I can't front almost went in on season tickets with a woman I was dating. I refused to wear anything but a team USA hoodie to the games though.

I really don't like how the team is built. Half measures, and no game breakers. They have forced trying to get back to the playoffs too early. Reminds me of our first failed rebuild with Duchene.

I haven't lived many places with an NHL team though. I had season tickets for one year in Tampa because it was my first opportunity.

Mikko hit the post.



Oh are we?

Thanks for that insightful post.

Of course, a Finnish poster. Why do you guys all hold grudges and troll any team that dares to trade away a Finnish player?

I didn't say it to troll, I'm so sorry if you took my comment that way. I am just referring on the GDT when some of the players didn't shoot when they had a good chance..

I'm sorry. I feel really bad right now.. no grudges what so ever. My fav Finn on Avs is Lehkonen anyway.

Jack Drury (Ted's son, Chris' nephew) is a Harvard alum. I know Moore and Kerfoot went to Harvard. Any other Avs?
It doesn't amount to anything. I just want to name-drop Ivy League jocks next time I'm attending an English Lit social at my alma mater, Brown.

Nope that’s it (unless the Avs end up getting Donato).

Guarantees them all an inroad to a cushy league job since the Commish and his crony, er, right hand man, are both Crimson alums.

Seeing Kotkaniemi on that pic warms my heart (because he's still there and not here)

If they could have gotten him at like 1-1.5M retained that actually would have been a such nicer addition than Drury who they expect to be the 3C for some reason.

I realize Carolina probably weren’t ever going to do something like that though.

Yeah, lately it's Bednar's comments and demeanor that have pissed me off. Seems like he's losing control more and more, and is out of answers.

The man has been giving the same guys the same message for nine years now. At some point I imagine you have to run out of ways of expressing your message and keeping it fresh.

I've always imagined being a GM or even Team President is a bit like gardening. You've got to have new growth to keep it fresh looking but, unfortunately, that involves pruning. I kind of feel we are the point where we all have had a wonderful ride and nobody should feel bad that it's time for change... but time for a change it is. I'm becoming more and more certain by the game.

Just my two cents.

Maybe, but at the very least they should have known they needed some fresh eyes in the off season for the offense and powerplay.

Bro didn't they produce the same last year lol I would want nothing to do with KK and that contract.
 
Are they telling Mikko to park himself in front of the net or is this just what he's doing in an otherwise unrehearsed default?
