No we don’t want a cap dump for girard just to reunite a duo that hasn’t played together for 9 yearsYoung French Canadian LD? This screams Montreal to me.
Didn't Drouin and MacKinnon play together in juniors as well?
I’m assuming it was futures on top of it. Girard is more valuable than Tuch.girard was the main piece for eichel lol, guess they didnt want him.
Sounds like the perfect partner for Scott Mayfield, but I'd be weary of acquiring him after last year's playoffsGirard thrives when he is on the 2nd pair and with a big stay at home defenceman who will cover for his pinches. The Avs have Byram and Toews on the left side, making Sammy G a bit redundant.
G isn't the type of player that you can throw anywhere in the lineup, but if you can tailor his zone starts and D partner, you are getting a great Defenceman

Wtf lol? Why lie like that? The best hockey he has ever played was in a top pairing role with Toews last year. He’s historically struggled with bigger defenseman aside from EJ. He struggled horribly with Zadorov and Graves. He played more minutes with Ryan Graves in last years playoffs than any other player and it was far and away the worst hockey he’s ever played in his career.Girard thrives when he is on the 2nd pair and with a big stay at home defenceman who will cover for his pinches.

No idea what his value would be around the league. I don't think he's as good as his numbers say tbh and I'm sure every GM was watching him play in the playoffs last year.
Mike Chambers is not a reliable source of information on any topic.
That said, the Avs need a 2C in the worst way. I'd be very surprised if G were moved for a winger of any caliber.
At this stage of his career, a low-end 2C/high-end 3C.What is Kadri?
Not to sure about that one.I’m assuming it was futures on top of it. Girard is more valuable than Tuch.
