What's the logic behind the byram trade? Massive overpayment. Staring that trade with toews makes more sense.

Nice offer for Nuge, but unless Byram plays RHD I don't see much space for him in Edmonton.

Byram can't stay healthy. Teows is the better person to pay. RNH had as many points on a second line then all of the avs second line this year. Olauson hasn't developed and is a project the Avs can't wait for. Same goes for a 1st pick this year at 27.

Come one. Byram is more talented then all for Oilers D. You don't pass on talent like his. The Avs are gambling that Byram can't stay healthy.

Take out Byram and its close. That is a MASSIVE overpayment for Nuge coming off an anomaly of a year

Easy decline for the Avs.

I'm also worried about byram's health but I'd still take on him over toews long term. If toews wants 8.5-9.5M mill for 5 plus years (lots of comparable contracts in that range for him) you have to take byram who's getting a bridge or cheaper long term contract. RNH is a solid player but had ONE point a game year, I would't bank on him doing that for several more years.

Olauson is two years out of his draft as a late first round pick. You cant call him a project lol, he was never supposed to jump into the nhl quickly. I'm not against trading him but since the avs are in a win now mode but this trade is giving away a important roster player and two trade chips for a salary cap efficent second liner. Av's dont get any better from this trade unless you think byram will never have a healthy season.
