Hmm, interesting proposal.

Not sure Avs really have a need for a RHD, but that's a tempting offer. Avs would probably have to trade Montour in the offseason for cap reasons or lose him to Seattle, but in the short term that would be an intriguing addition.

It does create a bit of a logjam at RHD but Timmins could be moved in a separate trade for a 3C.

The issue here would be capspace though, as taking on Montours contract kinda limits how high the caphit of a 3C could be.

Given that Montour's contract expires this year, would you be open to retaining on Montour? You can leave Mittelstadt out instead. Something like Compher + 4th for Montour (50% retained) for example.
