Bring up Bussi, trade Ullmark for Durzi and a pick

Neither Colorado nor Los Angeles can take on that much added cap.

COL could probably make the cap work, but it's just not a compelling trade for them.

Colorado could make the cap work but I just can't see them moving Cale Makar's partner after how highly Makar has spoken about him consistently

As stated numerous times on this site, Hawks will want a 3rd to take Reilly. Just buy him out.

Avs block Bruins number for this buster of a trade

There isn't anything to not like about Toews other than he's a 29 y/o (30 y/o in Feb) expiring UFA and will want a hefty raise and long-term deal that Colorado can't afford if they plan on keeping Byram long-term and filling other holes. I think Cale would be perfectly happy playing with Byram but this deal needs a bit of work.

I mean if Colorado is cool moving Toews, then if I'm the Bruins I try to keep Harrison and replace him with another prospect or pick and make that trade 100%

Also, I'm not sure why, but I've always imagined if Marchand would ever wear another uniform it would be Colorado. If there was ever a time/situation to move Marchand, this would be the time....

Avs decline and block Boston's number. Atrocious offer.
