I like Athanasiou, but TImmins isnt going anywhere. Not a big enough impact player coming back for the Avs being tempted to move one of their most promising young Dmen
Plus I dont see Sakic ever trading with the Wings

Jordan Schmaltz from the Blues seems like a great candidate. AHL All Star, good RHD prospect buried behind Petro and Parayko

Hmm, interesting take. Will look into him.

I don't see the Avs trading Timmins unless it's something amazingly overboard coming back. I'd love to see AA on the Avs, his and MacKinnon's speed would terrorise other teams, but not at any cost.



Agreed bar the last bit. I think Joe would trade with the Wings or with Stevie Y in Tampa if he felt it would improve the team. He made some dud moves to begin with (though how much was Roy's influence or others we'll never know), but since then he's been creeping up in my estimations. I reckon he's smart enough to do it despite the old rivalry if he thinks it will work.
