Description
First time doing this. So go easy on me. I just copied and pasted this in the description below as well. I'm not saying this is THE trade. But hear me out. The Avs have soured on Kaut (He's currently on waivers). But I just threw him in as JP can replace him. I like Kaut. I think he'll be a decent NHLer one day. I don't think that's with the Avs. I'm not sure he fits there style of a North South game. JP's value is at an all time low. His confidence is shot. The Avs have a history of going after former 1st round picks who haven't seemed to put it all together with their current teams. Yakupov, Grigorenko, Nichushkin, Galchenyuk. Avs also have a MONSTER Fin named Mikko Rantanen. I wonder if maybe he could help JP settle in. Just a thoughts. Let me know what you think. As for the trade. Maybe a 3rd or something? I Can't see JP being worth much at all at this point. And if EDM can get anything for him before he walks they should. Avs. Perfect time to grab him with all these injuries and figure out if he's a guy they could use for future years.

You don't want Puljujarvi. He is not good, especially at 3 mil. If he was on a 1 mil or less contract, then it would perhaps be worth it

Biggest thing preventing this is the cap once Landeskog returns from LTIR. Oilers wouldn't be retaining.

Welcome to CapFriendly! Happy to have you here! As far as a potential JP trade goes, I’m not sure what he would go for. I think realistically the Oilers won’t qualify him and he’ll be up for grabs July 1st.

When considering a realistic trade, I check the other team's AGMs last several rosters to estimate cap space & general needs. When fully healthy, the Avs have space for one cheap player on the NHL roster. So, if they are taking JP, they would need retention or salary going back.
