Description

_______________________________________________________

My THINKING of why I Traded for .......

- R. Graves is a big 6'-5" LHD that GMJR likes, he is an older prospect at 24 but got NHL time last season
and did solid but he is prob a #6 - #7 Dman in NHL but he will keep pressure on Riikola to keep play up.

- G- E. Comrie - Ive always been a big Comrie fan and with Murray's injuries- This team MUST have 3 NHL capable Goalies

- RW- M. Appleton is a big solid #12 - #13 forward but gives us another R-Handed option in line up and can play Center.

I feel like Pittsburgh fans just dont get it. Tell me, why would Colorado want to even consider adding JJ to their roster. He is dead cap space for 4 entire years and not one of those years does he even make the starting line up unless there are like 3 defense injuries. Sure the Avs have cap space right now but that happens next year when Girard's contract comes in Burakovsky, Zadorov and Jost need contracts. Then in 2 years; Landeskog, Makar, and Grubauer need raises. Oh and look in 3 years when they are still paying Jack Johnson to do nothing, Kadri and Byram's contracts need to go up. Not to mention the team looking for actual useful upgrades in players that will likely eat up cap space. You are literally offering your overpaid spare parts for an elc contract.

The Avs would have to be utterly stupid to make this trade.

Because their blueline is a total mess.

Because Colorado scouted the Penguins on the last game.

Because they need a goalie.

Here is the real kicker for you. Because there are multiple teams who have been discussing a trade for JJ.

Who knows if he actually ends up in COL, but please for the love of god stop acting surprised if he does.

girard-johnson
Cole-makar

is definitely not a mess of a top 4. avs have ZERO reason to make this trade. Jarry will be lost to waivers. his value is nothing anymore.

Blue line a total mess? Maybe it won't be that good this season since some players need some more development. But as LHD: Girard, Zadorov, Cole, Rosen en Graves, as RHD: Johnson, Makar and Timmins. Wouldn't say it's that bad. Trading for jj wouldn't make sense. At best they would go for a RHD rental. And why trade for a goalie who will be sent down and requires waivers. Teams will only trade for jj if the Pens add something interesting
