I miss Z, such a fun player. Frustrating as hell though. He’ll have one shift where he looks like the best defenseman in the world and then the next 5 are train wrecks.

I certainly don't watch every Calgary game, but from what I've seen it seems like he's found a lot more consistency. But even so, I don't think he'd be a trade target, as there is still a pretty sizeable doghouse with his name on it in Denver.

Z as a Manson replacement next season would be fine by me, but Z is due for a payday, it would be net neutral probably.

I think it would be a pure rental. Would be really fun to take a run at the Cup with Z though. And that gives the Avs three really good pairings imo.

JJ has been pretty good, but I worry about his ability to keep that up all year.
