GDT: NHL Free Agent Frenzy 2024

[Ararana]

So if I'm reading the tea leaves right:

- Avs wanted a cost controlled RHD for Colton
- Teams know Avs want to extend Drouin and are only offering to take Colton for basically free
- Avs aren't willing to give away Colton for just cap space and are going to lose Drouin because of it

I’m surprised we haven’t signed Suter, yet.

Cmac respects the rules.

Cmac respects the rules.

What a bitch.

 

[Ararana]

I’m surprised we haven’t signed Suter, yet.

The most predictable signing of the day will happen an hour and half after the bell rings because the Avs were busy having lunch

He's 34. I know he was good in the playoffs last year but the big drop-off can happen any second now. If they get just one good year out of him they are lucky.

Hasn't happened so far.

Obviously huge risk to be had with a guy like that who was horribly injury prone even in his prime, but this is one Treliving move that I don't think is necessarily a bad one. And I am NO fan of Treliving as a GM.

That's also where we were supposed to send Colton.

 

[Mighty Makar]

Montour to Seattle.

 

[BaconNater]

Do you think if we all pretend to be Stars fans for today.. then the Stars will make really bad moves and the Avs will improve? Because that's how it feels to be an Avs fan right now

Trotz isn't f***ing around today

 

[Balthazar]

lol @ Flames being after Monahan after paying a first to get rid of him a couple of years ago

 

[RoyIsALegend]

There isn’t even a single Avs rumour out there

 

[Gumballhead]

Trotz isn't f***ing around today

At this rate he’ll have a neck by 2pm.

Nashville spoiling Devils plans.

Thats good, that way Devils might want Colton.

 

[Ararana]

Utah - got better
Nashville - could be getting much better
Jets - stay stagnant
Dallas - lost half their defense

Avs - unknown

Macninja must be ready in the shadows, poised to strike, firing sub one mil deals like throwing stars.

The only shit we've heard in weeks is from you, bud

 

[Pokecheque]

I mean, Stamkos doesn't necessarily move the needle that much IMO, but I'd sure hate for f***ing Marchessault to be in the division.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

I don’t know why I get myself hyped up for the draft or FA, the Avs just don’t do exciting things during these periods. I remember the most hyped being the Panarin FA, where it was a long shot, but a slight hope that the core players could convince him.
