Avs decline. It'll take more than that.

Skinner just isn’t going anywhere
This whole ACGM is pretty unrealistic

I mean, the Jackets could do that deal, but I'm not sure if it'd actually help us any. We're not exactly in a rush to dump Kuraly and we've got enough depth that More Late Picks aren't enticing.

Not disputing whether or not they would trade him, but a third is not a late pick. It’s probably as much as you could ever hope to get for him.

I mean if there was no retention on Smith sure.... but there is no point on retaining on him.
They might as well play him and flip him at TDL, someone probably takes him.
His play isn't horribly bad. He's on a roughly 40 pt pace this year. He'll be fine on the 3rd line next year.
