Description

I doubt we'll end up trading high draft picks but if we do I think Zadorov makes a lot of sense.

1. He's a LHD. We're set at RHD with Hronek, Seider, etc. but need more guys at LHD.
2. He'll only 25 so he should still be around when we're good again. (Same age as Mantha and Bertuzzi)
3. He's more of a defensive defenseman and many of our prospects are more on the offensive side (other than Seider). I think he'd make a good pairing with Hronek.

Would this be a fair trade, and is that a realistic contract? Also, Colorado fans, would there be any roster players (ideally veterans) that you'd be interested to downgrade/remove one of the picks being sent back (we could retain salary as well)?

Again, I don't think that Yzerman will move many draft picks this offseason so this probably won't happen but I'm interested in the idea.

Colorado takes that unless they get a great offer for Graves.

I think Mantha will/should get more than that considering he's probably better than Nylander and most of those years are UFA years.

I'd agree with that. I'm just going off a report I saw that said he's close to signing for 5 year 5.5-6 million. I have no clue if that's true or not though.

Ive done the zadorov trade a couple times too and I think it's the perfect move. Hes the right age and the ld has a gaping hole in it and id rather they use a few of those extra picks on more than 17 year olds

I completely agree. The more I think about it the more I feel like it makes sense.
