Description
**BREAKING NEWS**
After failing to acquire Seth Jones, the Avs go ALL IN to repair their defense. It's young, fast, but lacks size or grit, especially with no Graves. I have a solution: get rid of Kadri and get yourselves and elite d-man, preferably on the left side to compliment Makar.

Don’t think its worth it to trade kadri for a LD when we have Toews (who really really good with makar) Sammy Byram and now Murray. Kadri brings more gritness anyway. If you think tyson jost can take the 2C spot, trade kadri for a winger to play with Jost and Burakovsky + replace donskoi

Nooo!! Please god.. you just blew up the team to get two rentals with not nearly the impact your expecting, trocheck is one injury away, you are giving away two first round picks and a great third rounder who looks like he’ll actually mature into a nhler. What do I know but it seems like the last act of a desperate man… would be a interesting year with ekholm but still. I don’t think it’s a big difference in trocheck and Kadri.. one gets injured often one gets suspended often

These are good prospects but I can’t see Canes trading Troch away unless there’s an nhl ready impact players coming back

CAR has so many centers though and I see Necas being the 2C long term, plus they added KK so maybe they trade Trocheck if they think their future is ultra bright, but most likely not. It's a pipe dream at this point.

They do have some potential long term 2Cs with Necas and KK but I don’t think they’re willing to let Troch go for futures to trust either of them this year. They’re in win now mode and moving Troch for futures doesn’t help that, even if value is not bad and they’re dealing from a position of strength. Nino is more likely the guy that gets moved, can never have too many centers.

Seth Jones is very likely the most overrated dman in the league.

Definitely. He may recover into being worth $5-6M but $9.5? Fugghedaboudit.

Ryan Graves may have some size but he never used it in a way that would be described as "gritty." The Avs actively choose not to engage in physical play in most instances. And that payment for Trochek feels steep - they may be prospects but that's two first-rounders (late) while Ranta has a lot of upside as a big, mobile guy who shoots well. I like Vinny and it's an upgrade but not at that price. No way EJ waives to go to Ottawa or leaves them off his no-trade list.
