I’d definitely do that deal back to Anaheim. And yes. Would be hilarious.So ... a 2nd and Helleson? That'd be hilarious.
In no world is Manson better than Girard.Manson >>> Girard. Get rid of Girard

Avs least valued contracts.if a contract needs to go (in order to re-sign everyone), he is the #1 on my list.
a pick is fine for him. 2nd, 3rd, whatever.
I actually like him and his gamestyle but no way should the Avs get rid of someone better and younger.
I love Colton on the 3rd line. I'd argue he's exactly what the Avs have been missing on the 3rd line the last 2 years.Avs least valued contracts.
Colton
Manson
They both have positive value, but I’d gladly dump either for a modest return.
Could easily be replaced in that role by a Trenin type.I love Colton on the 3rd line. I'd argue he's exactly what the Avs have been missing on the 3rd line the last 2 years.
Only if we keep another puck mover like Walker.given the avs position and mansons ntc they'll probably only get a mid/late pick. mansons been good enough not to need an asset attached in a dump.
i wouldnt be surprised if it was girard moved instead at the same price.
Come play off time G will lose minutes to Manson, JJ and Walker. He’s just not a play off type grinderCould easily be replaced in that role by a Trenin type.
A 3C should be good in the dot, he should PK and he should be good defensively. Colton is none of those things.
Only if we keep another puck mover like Walker.
Manson is mediocre. He’s not nearly as strong defensively as is assumed. I’d rather get a cheaper player that provides more defensive acumen.
I really doubt that. You need puck movers in the playoffs. Esp a team like the Avs. Girard is their best PK defender analytically and underrated defensively. Girard is overrated offensively.Come play off time G will lose minutes to Manson, JJ and Walker. He’s just not a play off type grinder

I mean. The Avs only area of strength in their pipeline is LHD with Gulyayev and Behrens... but Gulayev is a few years away so I see your point for next year anyway.Yeah only way we should trade Manson is if we resign Walker. And we shouldn't trade G. We already traded Byram, there's no one else coming on the left side. We don't have any prospects ready to come in and take on top 4 minutes. So if we don't resign Walker, we should be trading a forward for cap space if needed. Preferably Colton, then Wood if we need a little more. If Landy is back for real we could technically do Lehky, but that would not be desirable.
Didn't he not want to go to Canada or am i misremembering?Eh they didn’t even beat the avs offer of 2nd + helleson when he was available lol…. I think they like to dream of Manson but never want to pay the price
Granted new gm so maybe
Yeah I agree with you, and I am thinking about next year specifically for D replacements. I'd be happy with your plan if they can pull it off. I was just thinking they shouldn't move Manson if they can't resign Walker.I mean.

Avs should replace Manson with a cheaper bottom pair guy next year on a one year, cup chasing type deal. Reallocate the dollars to Walker, whom looks like a better fit than Josh.
Colton and Wood have been fine, but I suspect the Avs will explore moving one or both this summer.
I don’t remember that being the case, but maybeDidn't he not want to go to Canada or am i misremembering?
yep, i'd say you could have yourself a leafs-sens bidding war, if neither are on his NTC, especially if Tanev re-ups in Dallas.Exactly who the Sens need.
If EJ can get a 4th rd pick, Manson should be worth at least a 3rd and prospect.given the avs position and mansons ntc they'll probably only get a mid/late pick. mansons been good enough not to need an asset attached in a dump.
i wouldnt be surprised if it was girard moved instead at the same price.
Did anyone on Chicago even have the balls to challenge Manson? Probably wise not to do so:No interest in a goon who is too scared to back up his cheap shots.

Plus Manson has a NTC he's not going to the worst team in the league.
The nice thing about the Avs post RyJo (and EJ) is I don't see a bad contract on our books. Even Landy being LTIR makes that one a non-problem. Nothing negative value.Yeah I agree with you, and I am thinking about next year specifically for D replacements. I'd be happy with your plan if they can pull it off. I was just thinking they shouldn't move Manson if they can't resign Walker.
Even as an Avs fan... I hated that slash Manson did on Bedard. That was a bush league play. Not sure why he felt compelled to try to hurt a great young 18 year old. What message are you sending in an otherwise innocuous game?odd question to ask when Manson didn't even have the balls to play in the game and instead opted for a 1 game injury/rest. Sure sounds like Manson thought there were plenty of challengers waiting for him on the Hawks.
I don’t remember anything about Canada, but I know he nixed a trade to WinnipegDidn't he not want to go to Canada or am i misremembering?

I really didn't like that play. His check from behind on JT Miller wasn't a favorite of mine either. Manson has been a little too dirty lately and I hope he cleans up his game. Some grit and edge is fine... if you're upset with Bedard... face rub him after a save around your net. But the over the top stuff is uncalled for and not Avs hockey. And if you injure a guy with some malice, you'll be suspended and rightfully so.
Yeah, who the hell does Josh Manson think he is slashing THE Connor Bedard like that??No interest in a goon who is too scared to back up his cheap shots.
