Cool. That's a pretty damn good 3C. Guessing that's one of the picks we got yesterday going the other way.

 

[Ararana]

3C solved. MacFarland is redeeming himself.

 

[CoachBadkitten]

C-Mac is on fire

 

[missionAvs]

What did we send the other way?

 

[Mighty Makar]

There is our 3C.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

I'm actually quite stocked about this move. Think Colton's a really smart add

 

[avalanche_country]

I’m scared to see the return for TB

 

[The Kingslayer]

@henchman21 loving this offseason so far. Ross is one of his dudes.

 

[Ararana]

Someone smarter than me, how is Colton defensively?

 

[AvsGuy]

I'm hoping its not both picks from yesterday. I like the player but Newhook for Colton feels a bit lateral

 

[missionAvs]

So Mack-RyJo-Colton top 3 centers? Not bad at all. My what could have been if we had that last year lol.

 

[Azrael89]

I hope it wasn't one of the firsts, but I like this add.

Hasn't been announced yet

If the return isn't anything too crazy great pick up for the avs

I feel like two of the picks would be too much but the main boards think that's what it's gonna be.


That said I don't think Newhook for Colton is lateral at all. Colton is way better for what we need right now.

I like the move in theory, but feel like it’s a pretty big return for Tampa.

 

[AVSfan2daMAX]

Management learned the lessons from the playoffs. The bottom 6 needed and will be completely re-built.

 

[SuperJoe]

UFA in a year might bring the price down

 

[CoachBadkitten]

Man with Colton and RyJo alone I already can’t wait until opening night now. Let’s go

 

[Tommy Shelby]

This is a crazy good add, I've been a fan of the player for awhile now

 

[missionAvs]

*checks NHL.com*

Oh thank God he's at least 6'.

 

[MarchessaultCantRead]

Colton is good on faceoffs, physical, great 5-on-5, and is young and still has a lot of tread on his tires.

The best thing out of this though…no more J.T. Compher!
