No.

Avs need Timmins more than 2 middle 6 forwards that they have no room for on their current roster build. they dont want to your cap space issues. Even as a placeholder trade, you arent getting a Timmins player back

I don't know man, I've been watching a lot of Laffy highlights recently and I'd put he vision on precision passing on the 2nd line with Nylander and Tavares. That would be a scary line. I wouldn't even call it a 2nd line. It would be 1A and 1B for me.

Timmins is starting to get older he’s 21 now. I wouldn’t say his value is huge at this point. In my opinion that trade is fair.

Read the description, it's a placeholder trade. I just moved out assets for cap space.

This could be a 1A 1B 1C scenario and be just insane. Try shutting down all 3 lines on any given night. 2nd and 3rd lines will get destroyed on a regular basis.

He lost a season bc of a concussion from a dirty hit, which sucked, but he played a full season in the AHL as a legit top pairing Dman, good offensive number and was solid defensively.
Hes NHL ready, he made the team out of camp for a reason, just made no sense to keep him on the Avs roster when you would have to healthy scratch 1 of Graves Cole or Zadorov just to have him.

He still has solid value. Cant remember who generated the list (twitter I believe) but as a drafted RHS Dman, he still was one of the better ones set to make an NHL debut. Still a highly lusted over position and especially for a guy on his ELC and NHL ready

Well, that is why it makes sense for the Avs to trade him. The have a lot d core already, and the could improve their secondary scoring, with guys Kadri is already familiar with. Only downside, they take on cap.

Thats the reason why you dont trade him. they dont have any RHS dman coming. Cole has 1 year left on his contract, Graves and Zads are now a luxury to have and can afford to move one out since Byram is coming.

Girard Makar
Byram EJ
Graves Timmins

That is what the Avs will be playing as their D core in the not too distance future. They have built it up so it naturally turns over the the youth.
Avs dont need secondary scoring, they were one of the top offences in all the NHL last season, its not a priority of theirs.

Timmins "starting to get older" at 21 tears of joy

The kid is right on track with his development, despite missing a year to injury. He'd have stayed up this season if we hadn't had such good depth on D. It made more sense for him to get top line minutes in the AHL too.

Needless to say he's not getting moved for a middle 6 forward (Kapanen).

AJ is just another body costing $3.4m, no interest there.

Lol, Kapanen is 2 years older than him, and a way better current player.

Agreed. I think Kerfoot would take off in this scenario as well. That would mentally and physically wearing to defend those top 2 lines that I think lines 3 and 4 would get some great scoring opportunities. Plus it would take more pressure off of the Matthews line knowing you just how much talent is on the other lines, you don't need to be a hero all the time.

With all that being said, I'm sorry to say this since I know you're a Leafs Fan... For the love of God NHL please do not let this happen! Might as well pencil in Boston, Tampa, Toronto as the top 3 for the next decade in the Atlantic.

thats not the point, Timmins fills a need more than Kapanen who would be another middle 6 winger fighting for that spot on the 2nd line with Kadri. Right now is Kapanen better than Donskoi in that role, I would say No based on last season. And thats the avs objective, to find a clear upgrade at 2RW to push Donskoi down who still was good int that role

There is more value in Timmins being on the Avs then Kapanen who for all we know is a guy that they might not even protect in the expansion draft.

Kapanen might be better right now, simply from the fact that he's got more NHL experience, but young cost-controlled top 4 RHD's are almost impossible to find, especially compared to middle 6 forwards, so I don't think Kapanen's trade value far exceeds Timmins (if at all).

Its really annoying when people go ballistic over place holder trades that are explained in the trade as a placeholder trade. Seriously who cares how much you guys value Timmins, it doesn't matter the point is you move out two middle six wingers to make room for higher ceiling guys coming in. Whatever the best offer you can get for them. That's the point, you Timmins fans should read that and then settle down and realize none of that is the point, for crying our loud I don't even have him in the lineup. Why? Because it's not the point of this post.
