Description

Trade came from a philly ACGM, wanted to see how colorado can make it work.
From their perspective you get a top line center without losing newhook byram or any firsts for two years of a bad contract in ghost. I think they should go for it and really they just need to find new homes for compher & donny.
Trade likely to happen before the expansion draft. So i'd assume they take donny or Patrick in the expansions draft. In order to make cap work i think donny & compher have to find new homes either way.
I'd say this is probily the best case scenario.

Tend to agree with @QuackAttack. Feel like this heavily favors the Avs

I agree 100%, i don't know if the other one was a philly fan or not but i thought it was a no rbainer to take as well. Coga seemed to think this would put us into cap hell

It certainly might. I can't say I understand buried cap all that well, but I believe Ghost's $4.5m would count against the cap for the rest of his deal (two years). Pair that with a raise for Couts, Newhook, Byram, and Patrick? Might be tough.
