Excellent trade. This a shoot first bottom six guy that plays physical and will lift depth scoring.
We traded half of Newhook’s bounty for him. Avs do it again
What a fun past few days
Now what is his contract gonna look like. Do we give him long ass term to keep the aav down?
I think we’re going to be just fine with free agency and trades. This past season pissed everyone off.
Traded our 3C with a higher ceiling for a likely cheaper 3C and a first… I like it
Hat tip to Avs. This is how you deal.
Wasn’t too happy about losing hooker but for a 1st and Colton I’ll take it.
Seeing that JT Compher won’t be here next year will Ross Colton fill in JTs role?
Avs making lots of big moves the past few days. Will be an interesting season!
Not a Newhook replacement, but a really solid JTC replacement traded for with part of the Newhook return – this is really nice work by the FO.
Solid choice.
Nice pickup.
Man I’m dreaming that we have Landy on LTIR all season, and he’s getting better ahead of schrdule right by playoff time and we win the cup again.
Sakic and MacFarland are absolute wizards. They just got a free upgrade and then some with this trade.
Now grab a top 6 winger and we are ready to roll
