You may have seen that trade on here before with the Avs but you should also have seen it rejected by most (if not all) Avs fans.

id love to have pulock and ive seen lots of trades with ehlers going the other way but i think winnipeg keeps him. not sure what a fair package of picks/prospects would look like for pulock and would depend on the isle’s direction too.

havent watched much of their games, is there something lambert is doing specifically thats drawn the ire of fans?

Team blows leads left and right with him. Undisciplined, can’t stay out of the box. Changes lines when the team is playing well, refuses to change them when the team struggles, doesn’t call a single timeout when the team is in the middle of blowing leads (see SJS game), when other teams call timeouts and actually talk to their players, Lambert paces and says nothing. Puts super slow players (Anders Lee) on the ice when other team has extra attackers and big surprise we can’t keep up and get trapped for 2 straight minutes in the zone, runs top d-men into the ground so they’re dead tired by the late 3rd (Mike Reilly was dominant in the sharks game and still couldn’t crack 13 minutes, meanwhile Sam Bolduc who should be in the AHL at best is up at 18 minutes). Lambert got asked after like the 4th blown lead this year and said it’s not a trend. Now it’s like the 10th+ time it’s happened

Leafs decline no need to pay that outrageous price

Congrats this is one of the few Kuzy trades I've here that really makes sense for both teams. I honestly don't know what they would do between this option and buying Kuzy out at the end of the year. I would probably take it, but could really go either way.

I would love Brock Nelson, but I'm not sure that is a deal the avs would do. They need to bet on Ritchie for future cap reasons. One extra year of Nelson is great, though.
