Why are you yelling?

I would think if the retention was dropped the Avs would probably do this if it was offered.

Because they have a massive hole at 2C and he makes too much for the 3rd pair

I wouldn't offer Lundell straight up for Girard

Only spoiled Avs fans who think all dmen should be as good as Makar and Toews and those that don’t understand he plays d well in a different way in that he is good with his stick and not big, but yeah he is an easy target for cap space on top of that.

His metrics have been objectively bad for a few years now. A bad undersized dman making as much as he is makes him a easy dump preference

Firstly, Avs fans aren't other than they know that one of the D corps at least will have to be moved at some point for cap space. Secondly, the Avs won't retain on Girard because....cap space. Remove the retention and I imagine the Avs would have to seriously consider that offer. Throw in Lorentz and I'd say deal.

He's not bad and he's not a dump. Ludicrous take.

Only dman panthers should move lundell for is byram and it ain’t happening. Panthers can get a girard type player for cheap is ghost. They dont need girard this year with forsling oel and mikkola they need a rhd and move ekblad down to the third line he’s been terrible.

I love when somebody post a JFresh card and makes a definitive statement like there is no context or anything or that they actually just searched for something that they think supported their statement. Girard has been exactly what he is a 2nd pairing dmen that excels in transition, has positive shot share metrics ie CF at even strength the last 4 years of 56.3, 52.5, 52.0, and 60.3 while also averaging 33pts a season those seasons being his 21,22,23,24 year old seasons and it’s not like he is playing on a chump team. CF cracks me up, it’s all either a guy is worth a fortune or he is a cap dump.
