Let’s just for minute think COL would consider it, they won’t because Newhook and Byram are untouchable, they trade their 2C, a 2w, their 3C, a future #1 D man and their future 2C (who is really a future 1C), for a winger and C. Yes Bergeron is better than Kadri, yes Marchand is better than Burakovsky (and I think MacKinnon and Marchand would love playing together), but is that difference worth 2 of the best prospects in the game and Compher? No way. The Avs are in the same spot they are now looking for a 2nd line winger to play w/Marchand and Bergeron, no 3C and their 2 best prospects who will be immediate contributors for going straight to cap hell. Yeah that’s a pass for the Avs.
