Eh Nazar isn't really that valuable and Romanov is having a meh season. Nazar has beck level stats in the AHL without the defensive play or ability to play center at the NHL level. His size is going to be a detriment and he's still not likely to even reach the level Dach was at two years ago.
Anyone acquired from those highway robbers — Avs management.
Although the recent comedic British series about infamous highway robber Dick Turpin makes criminals of that ilk, look endearing (well worth watching), this in no way applies to the Avs.
Lose their number, Kent!
For a guy with zero experience, he has done far more good than the previous clown that was in charge for almost a decade. Imagine Kent in a few years. The potential is there. His ability on getting firsts and seconds with relative ease is fascinating. Yes, mistakes happened with Barron, Dach and Newhook. That Slaf contract might also ruin Kent, but he has plenty of time to repair his mistakes. Michkov didn't want to play for the Habs, period.
Barron is still so young. We should be playing the crap out of him.
Dach is like the many coworkers all of us worked with, tries hard, put in the work, good work ethic and do his job the first 3-6 months or until probation is passed and then they show their real color. There is a reason Chicago traded a 6’4” 220 lbs 3rd overall pick 3 years after being drafted. Blah blah blah with the excuses!
Neither of those teams would trade either player straight up for Dach.
Before this year, nobody on these boards would have traded Dach for either Romanov or Nazar or even better players.
Exactly, everyone thinks he’s the player that played Game 1 against the Leafs last year before getting hurt. Somehow people never thought he’d be the player the Blackhawks got sick of waiting for

Certainly not at the price it took.
Giving a early second round pick has overkill for him. A first round pick should have been enough.
You should never judge an athlete that tears his acl the year after his return .
You all are acting like Dach has been awful 100% of his time here. With young Hutson, Guhle, Xhekaj, Harris, Engstrom, Mailloux and more in the pipeline, moving Romanov made sense.
It was tongue in cheek. Obviously, Hughes made the trades out of his own free will, so “robbery” is just hyperbole. I thought the reference to Dick Turpin that I included in the post, gave a clear indication of what I was trying to do — I didn’t think someone would take it literally, so here we are.
