Trade Deadline Thread: Chaos Simmering

[ahmon]

Trenin has size but has low hockey IQ. not sure he helps Colorado much. this one Sakic didn't do as well.

 

[sting101]

Dubas was dumb to wait this long to put him on the table just like Conroy and Hanifin these elite players still in their 20s absolutely have to return a top10-15 type player or pick (from a draft) or you just shat the bed.

Older one's sure getting later picks and packages is the norm and to be expected given teams will wait you out and force it to the deadline.

If he gets a Perreault or Lekk plus he's done well at this stage

 

[alternate]

Don't the Avs even care about locker room chemistry?!?!

 

[Nucker101]

It’s fun having a guy who plays like Trenin that’s named Yakov


Good vibes

Yep conroy and dubas right now look like stepbrothers

“This management don’t leak shit” unless they want the public to pressure a superstar into signing lmO

it's also speculation that this is a leak by JR haha

nobody reported on Lindholm interest until it was like done

 

[LemonSauceD]

I hate Joe Sakic.

GM Chris MacFarland, not Sakic. Sakic doesn’t get involved in trades anymore, he’s just chilling in the back seat.

 

[sting101]

Here's a few names that may be available and haven't talked much about here.

Jake Middleton - LD - 2y/2.45m
Mario Ferraro - LD - 3y/3.25m
Jonathan Kovacevic - RD - 2y/0.77m
Alexander Barabanov - W - 1y/2.5m (10-NTC)
Yakov Trenin - LW/C - 1y/1.7m
Cole Smith - W - 1y/0.775m
Alexandre Carrier - RD - 1y/2.5m
Colin Miller - RD - 1y/1.85m
Cal Clutterbuck - RW - 1y/1.75m
Mathieu Joseph - W - 3y/2.95m

I have always liked Colin Miller and it would be great to have more Miller time. Maybe it's just because he plays well against us. I know he's a bit of a defensive liability but man he has a canon

[Just A Bit Outside]

Avs going balls out.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

GM Chris MacFarland, not Sakic. Sakic doesn’t get involved in trades anymore, he’s just chilling in the back seat.

Oh wow.

Still though, I hate Joe Sakic and Milan Hejduk.

 

[mriswith]

Rentals do not get prospects like Lekk, Willander, or Perreau and they don't get 23 year olds scoring at a 1st line rate signed for 1 mil into next year like Hog.

I would love to pick up Carrier for cheap.

 

[oceanchild]

I do believe the Guentzel situation is going sideways in Dubas. No reason this is still ongoing.

This is not the year to bet the farm. The team has improved so much in a year, this management group needs a bit more time to tighten up the lineup and get some players that fit our needs. Will be plenty of opportunity going forward.

 

[Nuckles]

They just traded Trenin so...

Yeah, a bottom 6 forward with limited offensive ability.

I highly doubt Carrier is available for a 3rd round pick so my point remains. All the recent rumors have linked the Canucks to forwards, I doubt they're looking to move their 2025 2nd or any good prospects for a D right now.

 

[StickShift]

f*** me, now what

 

[Nucker101]

Avs going balls out.

They’ve done in it a pretty calculated way. Like despite all the moving parts it doesn’t feel like a front office that’s going full yolo.

It’s hard to say any of their deals have been bad value.

 

[Jovofan]

Oh wow.

Still though, I hate Joe Sakic and Milan Hejduk.

Screw Peter Forsberg too!

 

[wonton15]

f*** me, now what

In b4 Toffoli at 75% retention

 

[alternate]

f*** me, now what

Probably added Crosby

 

[Angry Little Elf]

Saw Jake Guentzel buying a bbq

 

[Petey O]

If the Avs and Golden Knights could just wreck each other in the playoffs, that'd be nice.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Don't the Avs even care about locker room chemistry?!?!

Not with Mack there.

He runs the show.

Already got RyJo kicked to the curb.

 

[Nucker101]

f*** me, now what

They trolled us

 

[wonton15]

Lol not gonna lie their Twitter admin is funny

 

[Bleach Clean]

i disagree. Nothing is clear it's been how long?

Horvat had a respectable 5-3 8pts in 10 games with NYI last year when brought in then went 1-2 3pts in his next 15 games. He had the luxury of Barzal and PP1 bumper force fed.

Lindholm joins on a marathon travel schedule and has bounced over 3 lines and a few different spots on the PP.

Claiming we made a mistake is being over the top. Were still in the process of getting value back

Board crashing on me.

It wasn't a mistake trade. There are other reasons he needed to be brought in, imo. That said, you have to admit that this point it looks like a pro-scouting error. He looks lost on the wing, which stands to reason because he's played almost exclusively at C.

At worst, he's a high end 3C here, which is fine. But the time to continue to toil is running out.
