Thread: Tank
Honest points I have to make on us committing to a rebuild:

Sell Quick: Petersen seems like this might be legit, and if it is, we should definitely capitalize on Quick having high value for a goalie. Either we sell him now, or we hold onto him until expansion and use him to save our young guys.

Honestly, see what’s out there for Doughty: Drew resigned with us to win, and since that’s not happening, perhaps he might be happier elsewhere. There are few teams out there who wouldn’t need a player of his caliber, so you can only assume there’s lots of teams out there that would be willing to spend big on acquiring the multi-time Norris winner.

Sell the older supporting cast: Muzzin, Carter, Martinez, etc. should all be sold to make room for the youth movement, and to acquire more pieces for said movement while they’re still positive value.

Thread: A trade partner for DD8 Im oddly intrigued by
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MountRoyal514</b></div><div>Doughty is an elite defenceman who automatically makes the Avs legit cup contenders, so they would be fools not to consider parting ways with a prospect or two if they thought they could land him. The combined careers of Girard and Makar are unlikely to ever match Doughty's. However, I can see the Avs refusing to pass up Ottawa's first, especially now that the Sens are sinking down the standings to where we thought they would be after their surprising start. The Avs have a lot of promising young players in their system so they could part with a few to get an elite player without leaving their cupboards dry.</div></div>

The Ottawa 1st might be a stretch if there’s anything else of significant value, but I could potentially see them willing to part with it for a player of Doughty’s caliber if the price is right. Colorado has prospects to spare to make a splash at the TDL. Should be interesting for them if they’re in a good position to contend.

Thread: Panarin its happening
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>He is played 13 mins last game...8th in TOI of forwards, the game before that he was 7th in TOI out of forwards...so yeah he is playing 3rd line minutes now. Trying to use early season minutes before you had a coaching change and applying it to current situations is flawed. They are treating him as a bottom 6 forward now...linemates tonight Amadio &amp; Thompson....scrubs

He is now starting on the 4th line. Thats jus the reality of the situation while the kings spiral out of control</div></div>

Still has an ATOI of roughly 16 1/4 minutes since Desjardins came in, which isn't to the point where he's asking for a trade imo, but it's honestly less than I expected given Willie's reputation of playing vets. This at least is a sigh of relief with Willie as interm, that the young kids aren't gonna suffer while he's coach.

I wouldn't mind selling Kovy tbh. Didn't give up anything to get him, and gives us the assets in the future. Honestly it's a win-win for us if we do so.
