Thread: After Letting It Breathe

I like picking up boyd but might as well just keep foudy and give them a third instead, no point in giving foudy away for someone who probily won't be resigned unless hes taking pretty much the same contract.

Calgary fans, stop trying to send Kadri back to us. The only way we're taking him back is if he's 50% retained and even then it'll be hard

Thread: If Drouin cant do the thing

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Avsfantrumpetman</b></div><div>TOTALLY agree. I'm hoping he can stick at 4C, but I think that's his ceiling. For the record, I think Drouin is going to work out, I just wanted to take a look at what things might look like if we didn't add anymore up from. If there's any argument to be made about adding a depth forward instead of a #6 d-man, it's this scenario right here.</div></div>

Understandable for sure, but even if he doesn't work out, don't think he'll be bad enough to prompt the Avs to put Myers on the 3rd line

Avs decline. Annunen is being trained up to at least cheaply replace Frankie if not Georgie in the future.

Yup. It would have to be HORRENDOUS. And I'm a person who likes to think about the worst possible scenarios in all facets of life and this forum is cheaper than therapy :tearsofjoy

Myers is NOT ready for the 3rd line, much less, he might not be ready for the 4th line. This had better not happen, even if Drouin isn't good

That third line is brutal. At least there are plenty of options available to replace him this year through affordable trades.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wqrrior</b></div><div>start year in ahl, come up a bit later on</div></div>

We signed him to a one-way deal. He's got I think 10 games of non-waiver AHL available because of his age, but I don't think we would offer a one-way deal if we didn't want him on the team to start the year.

Thread: last holes

Donskoi is unfortunately probably done. I think concussions got the best of him. I seriously doubt a Buffalo team that feels they are on the verge of contending sends that caliber of defenseman away with retention for a fourth round pick.

I'm sure the Avs promised Meyers certain things to get him to pick COL. Since he didn't get enough games yet to get a one way qualifying offer, Meyers declined it at 854k/90k for the one way 775k guaranteed deal. It shows the Avs still believe in him too.

Exactly. And I figured what took so long on that negotiation was figuring out one-way money. He's got potential and just like Newhook, they're gonna give him the games to show that potential. If he isn't putting up at least 4th line numbers (15-25 pt pace) by December, I'll bet we send him through waivers.

Dorion when he realizes he needs to sign Shane Pinto with 32k left in cap space.

Thread: Get rid of MacDermid

Cal Foote can't just slot in for a full season. He's never played more than 60 games in a full season and most of those are healthy scratches. Caleb Jones is the far better option on the market right now and arguably has closer ties to Denver.

I think Heinen is a very good possibility, though.
