Description
1) Ottawa wins the draft lottery. This means Colorado wins the draft lottery. They draft Jack Hughes. He starts his career at 3C but works his way up to 2C to play with Kerfoot and Zuccarello.

2) Avs make the playoffs in the 2nd wildcard spot in the west and pick 16th overall. They swing for the fences and draft Spencer Knight. He is the goalie of the future but won't make the show for a few years.

3) Sign Varlamov to a 2 year, high dollar deal. this ensures there is room to pay Girard, Makar, and Hughes in a few seasons.

4) The Blackhawks trade is just an idea. With two firsts, the Avs can afford to trade their 2nd rounder to try to get some cheap depth. Sikura has all the tools, but is struggling to put it together in Chicago.

Good effort on this one.
I think you got the signings/value pretty close.

As for Varly, i dont 100% agree on bringing him back BUT if we did, i think he happily comes back for much less than 7.5mil (think closer to 6mil).

Also try these D pairings:
Girard-Johnson
Zadorov-Barrie
Cole-Makar

I'd say you're spot on there with Varly & The D pairings and a good effort from the OP.

Gotta sign compher too. Probably in ine 2.5-3 mil range for a couple years. They might go long term with him for a higher cap hit. That means zucc is probably not gonna happen. I'm on board with bringing Varly back on a 2-3 year deal.

Oops, good spot, I'd missed Jimothy Timothy not being there. Yep, he's a definite re-sign. I'd guess around 2.25 to 2.75 on a two year bridge as he isn't quite there yet, maybe down to a bit of time missed through injuries but he has the tools, just needs to put it all together at the same time.

I think the only real problem that I see is the fact that you say they draft a goalie at 16 OA...im not sure when the last goalie that drafted in the first round was but it is extremely rare.....
