Avs would probably listen to something like this, but it really depends on how Toews' season goes, Reinhart's contract turns out and how he performs this season, and if Saad is going to be extended

This is a way for the avs to not lose one of graves or toews for nothing without them having to pay seattle, and can be insurance for saad if he leaves

Yeah, I suppose but the D situation all hinges on EJ being willing to waive. I also think the Avs almost have to lose on of Toews or Graves because Byram needs a spot. I think that's the plan, anyhow.

I don't know - a top-4 D for a scoring wing is a decent trade but maybe a touch more is needed.

It's not a bad proposal but all things being equal, I think the Avs would rather keep Toews than Graves. But if it led to Reinhart, it might be worth it to make the trade. If Landy is willing to wait until after the ED to extend, that would be great but the optics leading up to it would be bad. It would also depend on what happens with Saad and/or what they think Reinhart would want on an extension - if it's significantly more than what Saad would make, that could be a problem. Lots of things to consider in a deal like this.

Not close for Reinhart. Need to add Kaut and a 1st. Sakic can't fleece everyone and Avs fans shouldn't let it get to their heads with offers like these.

You're overrating Toews and Undervaluing Reinhart.

He hasn't done nearly enough, unless you want to call him a top 31 RW which I guess would be technically correct

He's a good player. I consider him a first liner. Even on this brutal team he has to play for. With the improvements he will only improve.
