Thread: Two Small Moves
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bigZ98</b></div><div>JGP not worth risking the first. He is having a career season and is doing so by logging top line minutes. Bring him to Pitt and hes a 3C with limited ice time (especially with how good Bluegers line has been) and his numbers likely fall back to earth. Its almost like a Brassard thing waiting to happen again. If the pens are gonna target a 3C they have to target someone who can and does play 3C. Which is why im willing to give Bjugstad another look at 3C with how this team is playing rn</div></div>

Pageau is a legit 3C. Good PKer and role player. Brassard was a guy who should have been playing 2C but was in the bottom 6 because Pit has Crosby and Malkin, and also wasn't really that good anymore anyways. That being said I don't think Pageau is worth the price most people are tagging him with, but I don't think this trade is too bad considering they get a 2nd back.

Thread: Price
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>a1111</b></div><div>if your a Avs fans . Price is not moving UNLESS a king ransom favorising future . Read Byram + 1st to START with . Your not interested ? Stay with your scrum goalie .
Your not gonna go far CAUSE of your goalie .
At least 20 team would move the world for Price . He's not for sale at dollarama .</div></div>

I don't think any teams would move the world for Price. I'm saying that as a big fan of him. He could be performing at Vezina levels but the simple fact is he makes too much money for a team to be super competitive and a team close now would sacrifice a lot by bringing him on now (Avs). Your goalie can be a wall but you still need depth up front to go all the way. He carried the Habs for many seasons but I just don't think a goalie is worth so many assets no matter who it is.

Thread: hall trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>I do see Timmins being the piece that moves. 1st Timmins and Kaut is what I think gets the job done. Other than that, then Devils are trying to be greedy and it will burn them. They are on the clock and don't have much leverage in maximizing hall deals (agreeing for him to extend iwht a new team and its been speculated hes going to UFA regardless)</div></div>

I think a 1st Timmins and Kaut should be a no brainer for NJ. Well all argue on here about the other Avalanche pieces being a part of the deal but come to think of it in reality Colorado probably doesn't give any of their top top pieces up. This way, Col still gets a nice luxury of Hall for the ROS and playoffs without losing one of their best young players/prospects. Sucks to lose Timmins who I think is really good, but the 1st will probably be low. Joe could make this trade and probably sleep easy knowing he did what he could for a nice run this year and still have a future.

Thread: Hall
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>Again that’s not the point, plus hall is not a missing piece for them to make a cup run, when 90% of Avs fans say that on this site yet other fan bases ignore it..around in circles we go</div></div>

Hall might not be a "missing piece" for Colorado this season. But if you can add him for a prospect who isn't even playing and some picks, it should be considered. Real men, like I assume Joe Sakic is, would have the sack to pull the trigger on a deal like that to get Hall and probably be cup favorites. Put Hall on the 2nd line to keep your first in tact, and your 2nd line is even filthier. Players like that don't come around very often. I realize letting go one of your best prospects is hard, but when you have so many it should be a no brainer for management.

Thread: High Altitude
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JeffW</b></div><div>The avalanche need taylor hall because their only tied for 1st place in goals per game... and taylor hall's 4 goals are going to make you #1 without the tie...not to mention your current 2nd line wingers have the same amount of points or more than hall... who needs a #1 defenseman when you can get 4 goals per 25 games</div></div>

Hall has had a bad year but his numbers would obviously go up on Colorado. I think Colorado considers this regardless because if you have a chance to add a significant piece for a cup run when you are already at the top of the league, you take it. Trading Byram for a cup would easily be worth it even if Hall doesn't sign.

Also I think calling Byram a #1 D before he has played a game in the NHL is a bit much.
