    why the heck would sakic Apologize? This roster was built for Patrick Roy....PR caused this mess, Sakic has done his best to manage it.
    ROR isnt worth 1.5m more than Duchene, lets be honest here. He doesnt want to be anywhere near the Avs...he wanted MacKinnons spot as the number 1c face of the franchise, the captain, etc. ROR doesnt want to ply behind MacK and be 2nd fiddle.

    Iggy needs to be traded this year, and Soderberg needs to move on. He isnt helping this team looking lost. Move on from those 2 fwds, bring in compher greer and find a new RW for the Top 6. A major moves do not have to happen

    Duchess needs to stay. With the right supporting cast, he will flourish. Mackinnon, Rantanen, and Grigorenko are the only ones that can work with duchene because of his talent. Thats not enough

    ROR is not the answer. The avs need people who can score. We are something like 2nd to last in GF/GP. The target needs to be a team that put up 250 goals a year.

    I agree, they need to figure out the 2nd line RW situation. Move on from Iggy and Soderberg to open up that Top 9. Bring up Greer and Compher once you do.

    Greer Mack Rants
    Landy Dutch (X)
    Comeau Grigo Bourque
    Colborne Mitchell Compher

    I would be happy with this fwd group this season

    ROR scored helmetless last night. I miss him. I want him back. As for Iginla, man, is that guy lost. Apparently he was screwing around at practice too. He needs to go. AJ Greer needs to be up with the big boys. Soderberg needs to be in the bottom-six. Imagine if we'd have signed Radulov, that would have been sweet.

    ROR is a great talent, but he wanted nothing to do with the Avs and wanted to be the face of the franchise. Im sorry that just doestn fly with me. I think he was awesome when he was with the team but im soured on him as a person with the way he played things out to get that inflated contract.

    The fact he wanted the C from Landeskog and pouted bc of it. Crazy
