      And why in the ever loving world would the Avs trade 2 great defensive prospects on ELC’s who are expansion draft exempt for anything short of very large over pays?

      Maybe learn how to post. You posted a trade to the Avs for cap relief didn’t you?

      To be fair the Devils could provide a *lot* of cap relief lol and help the Avs trim down perfectly for expansion but I agree they probably don't quite go this far

      This type of poised strategy seems ideal

      More cap weaponizing the merrier

      What do you find so intriguing about Ian Moore

      Coga did read the post accurately it would seem, colorados cap is not an issue at this point and their expansion draft is all sorted at least in my mind

      This makes no sense, where would the cap or expansion relief come from? this is just us sending one of our top D prospects to you with no other explanation.

      Sorry if I was not clear.
      I was saying..."Devils should seek out RHD, here are guys I like"
      (Not trading for seven of them).
      Just one of those guys - or another RHD.
      Not proposing any specific deals.

      Indeed. It was clearer in my mind than it was when I re-read it.
      I was listing RHDs I like...was saying go get one. Didn't have any deal mind.

      Big kid, skates very very well, smart player.
      And people that know how to pick young defenders love him.
      Ryan Hardy, Jim Tortorella, etc.

      so you puffed out your chest in a gotcha comment and were the one that was wrong, funny.

      you can say you are interested in them all you like, but as soon as you put Cap or XD relief with them, you are claiming they can be obtained by that, which is just false

      Wouldn't it make more sense for Buffalo to trade Ristolainen instead of Borgen since Risto doesn't want to be there and will return more? I think Attard is eligible for free agency this summer, so if they want him I don't think they need to trade anything for his rights. He might not want to leave school yet, though.

      Are you serious? You were the one who went passive aggressive comments but were completely in the incorrect and then doubled down on it

      Just pointing it out and I guess you don’t like that do you

      I didn’t say anything false, but if I did, I would correct.
      Most other teams are flattered if fans like their players.
      But somehow you were triggered by this.
      I am sorry if that offended you.
      I have deleted the Avs from this post.
      Have a nice night.
