Not a bad idea. I could certainly live with it.

Lost in all the noise about Jakob Chychrun to Los Angeles with or without Brandt Clarke yesterday was that Eakins scratched Comtois again last night. At least no one can blame him for the third-period debacle.

I'm not sure Behrens would be on the table, and I also don't know if Comtois would even interest Colorado at this point, but it doesn't seem outrageous either. Certainly adds to forward depth in one fell swoop, which (aside from what I thought was an amusing title) was the point.

What about Oskar instead of Behrens?

What’s the deal with comtois? Just getting the dog house treatment?

I would accept either.

Eakins won't play Comtois and he's not getting a fair chance, so I want to see him go somewhere where he has a chance to succeed. I always root for my Ducks alumni.

Still hoping for a Manson-Lindholm reunion in the Finals. (And the worst disciplinary move the NHL DPS ever took was to break Cogliano's consecutive-games streak for a bogus stick infraction.)

Olausson is a good idea. I'll leave the trade as is, but I think that actually makes a lot of sense.

I like the idea of Comtois. Avs need a little size and a shooter in their middle 6. I think he would help their depth scoring issues.
If 1st and Oskar is fair, I think this trade is a nice piece of business between the 2. Fair and everyone gets what they need.

Comtois could be what Oskar is at the NHL level, so at the very worse Avs are just getting the player they have in the system but earlier.
Ducks get the youth and the upside still as hes not a finished product yet

Comtois is struggling mightily, but most in Anaheim are, and he has show the ability to be an effective player in the past. It's definitely a risk, but one that I'd say is worth having the Avs pro scouts look into. They're obviously good at their job.

And yeah, my lines are more for giggles due to the title. I'd have the bottom six as you do here.

it all depends on what Comtois wants on his next contract. Hes 2m QO. If he is expecting a raise, I would say not worht it. if hes willing to sign for less or the same as his QO then im good with this.

I cannot understand why Comtois was scratched and Carrick played on the top line with Strome and Zegras.

Unless Comtois was dinged up like earlier this year when he was scratched a few times, couldn't recall if he got sick or had a nagging injury.
