And what is Pietrangelo gonna do? If you plan on signing Pietrangelo then don't call up Byram. Cause Pietrangelo is gonna eat up all the minutes.
Honestly I wouldn't even sign either cause then your just gonna lose Landeskog
But if you want a big man free agent Hall is way better
You can still call up Byram and let him ease into the NHL with a stable D partner in Johnson the 3rd pair to ease him or let him play with Pietro and let him do what he does best
All Im saying and what the OP Avs fans is saying is that investing money in Pietro is a better use of Cap space over guys like Hall.
Avs could move on from both Graves and Zadorov in trades getting solid pieces back from them and have a Dcore of. If Avs want to be players on him, there is a spot on the roster and cap in order to do so
Girard Makar
Byram Pietro
Cole Johnson
Timmins
Hall is not way better for the Avs, you can have our opinion, but I dont think you really understand how the Avs play or what their needs are, you just assume big money winger means good fit...its not.
And Avs wont lose Landeskog, roster model projections show that they can spend around 9m in UFA this year and still have the money to resign both Makar and Landeskog.
Avs are in a solid spot right now
