Description

Just a possibilty

COL is obviously a team capable of winning the Cup. IMO it would be in the best interests of Sakic to try for one before Makar and Landeskog need new contracts. The Marner trade gives them an upgrade.
Jost is unneeded, they can get some assets for him while taking a smallish cap dump
