The 91 of Ryans

AA = 2nd Gauthier = Svechnikov would that be about right?

Well you singled out AA for some reason when other sources are also throwing around other names. You let your wishful thinking/preference dictate your perception of who the Avs might be interested in when in reality there could be 3 or 4 guys that fit the bill.

K. You sounded pretty confident. I thought maybe you had heard this from a reliable source.

Source? https://www.tsn.ca/countdown-to-tradecentre-where-do-the-colorado-avalanche-go-from-here-1.1444488 Lists Helm and Glendenning as possible (cheaper) Avs targets. But I think it's just speculation.

Except Coleman's better. So you can't really make the comparison Currently with 21 goals at 1.8M per year through the 20-21 season. Tampa def gave up assets but it's not as lopsided ad you think.

Kasian just got 7 games for kicking. GAWD I wish the Wings had a guy like this.

The insanity of this discussion aside, I believe the concept is: don't wait until the last minute to pass the puck but also don't pass it right away either. Gotta find that sweet sweet lil chicken nugget of time in between the two extremes that's the perfect moment for an outlet pass. But whatevs, I'm mostly just skimming through the white noise here, so I might be wrong.

He's a dumb dumb. No more dumb dumbs please. Unless they like booze. Then it's OK.

Why don't you go beat up a Democrat?

But who cares why his passing is bad. It's just bad. Too slow, too fast. Whatever. He should have adjusted to the speed of professional hockey by now. OR at least shown signs that he's getting it. No?

Well, he doesn't drink. So he has that going against him.

Kirill Marchenko too

If only Sandin hadn't gone 29th I wished we'd taken Romanov

Or, ya know, Roenick's always been an idiot and Chiclets is basically just digitized smegma. Now if Millbury would only wink at someone's grandma........

Yeah. I'd like to see a Chara - McAvoy tbuddy cop type thing.

Fair enough. We do need a real veteran D man to mentor Seider though. Not sure how that's going to happen. I can see Yzerman leaving Moritz in GRs until it does though.

We don't win lottery. Pick 2nd. Take Stutzle. He plays in 21-22. I don't know who Yzer-dude jettisons at the deadline but we all know who won't be coming back. Since it's clear some of you guys have already lit the fantasy candle, it's bold prediction time: Yzerman makes a big kahuna move and overpays for Pietrangello 9.5 x 7. HERE ME OUT: Seider needs someone to guide him in his formative years and I'll be fuked if it's going to be DeKeyser. And I think Alex is the type of big brain D that will still be provide excellent value at 35+. Anyway, it's less likely than drafting Lafreniere but more likely than Veleno being 2C and trading 7 guys before October. Bertuzzi - Larkin - Mantha Athanasiou - Filpulla - Zadina Fabbri - Rasmussen - Smith Erne - Glendenning - Abdlekader Nielsen/Svechnikov DeKeyser - Hronek Pietrangello - Seider Nemeth - Lindstrom Bowey Bernier Halak/Howard I'm far more interested in the 2021-22 roster.

I thought it was common hockey knowledge that if you're asked to shoulder more defensive responsibility as a forward, especially a center, that your offence may have a tendency to suffer a bit? Unless you're an elite Selke caliber guy.

Pfffft Maybe I trip on the neck beard
