<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xqb15a</b></div><div>Kadri, who I love is 31yr old that had a career year, if you think he is replicating 80+ points good luck with that, just take a look at his linemates shooting percentage. Rackell probably gets paid in that range but meh he isn’t the guy from 17-18. I like Sharangovich a lot too. Newhook, is right there but they can’t expect him to produce the offensive numbers he should playing with guys like NAK.</div></div>

My signing Kadri is more of a "I think he can do 50-70 points a year for 4 but it is going to cost you for that time. I dont' see the AVs resigning Teows. if he continues to play the way he does he is going out price the Avs. As for Newy I agree. Playing on line 3 definitely hurts his production. I don't think he is a center. Watching him play he just doesn't have the 200 foot game. I see him as a wing. As a wing it hurts his value. As for Salary cap. It is going to be a tough future. I see alot of trades in the Avs future and I'm wondering if the Avs don't sign Kadri and then trade him but you have to sign him first. 7-8mil is the price according to EV projection. I've learned enough to know they are usually a little low. All speculation and opinions here.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xqb15a</b></div><div>Kadri at $8M is just a bad choice, if they can convince him to do in $6.5M range that would be a sweet spot. Rackell and Hagg are very expensive pieces that can be filled by cheaper players. Some internal youth is going to fill spots in the bottom 6. And you really screwed them the following off season having $14M to sign MacK, Byram, Newhook and Sheg.</div></div>

I disagree. Kadri is a 80 Pt guy. you pay that kind of money. MAC gets 12 mill(his 6.3 plus EJs). Byram get paid when I trade Manson. I could go shorter on Mansons deal. I'm not sold on Newy. If he wants the money he has to show me something next year. Shary is great. I like Rackell and I disagree. He is going to get that money. It's just an opinion. It doens't have to be 100%.

Thread: Ready to get my TDL ideas torn to bits again love yall
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Db1899</b></div><div>Mayfields value is closer to what Savard returned last trade deadline. He’s also decent offensively, he can drive play and his shot is pretty good. He also has a reputation of being solid in the playoffs on a team that went to back to back ECF. Also you have to factor in his contract which is well below market value. The islanders won’t trade him unless they get at least a 2nd and a good prospect or a 1st straight up.</div></div>

Yeah Savard wasn't worth what they got. Mayfield is a bottom pairing Dman maybe a 4th. Not much leverage for his services. I disagree with two assets plus the pick for Mayfield. I could see murray and a 4th and maybe a 6th round pick. Not certain Mayfield give Avs much that Murray doesn't.

Thread: Trade Deadline Do not be mean
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BigShoots</b></div><div>How confident would you be with Newhook at 2C next season? You could buy yourself an extra yr for him to develop and uber stack the team this season. If it were Barron, 23' 1st, Jost, does that not get you a lot closer to winning these next two seasons?

Surely you are paying close to that for Giroux for example and he'll come with a higher cap hit while also being a true rental.</div></div>

I agree with you. I would like miller over Giroux. Not certain Colorado can give up both Barron and Burky. Barron may be needed before the eos if Byram is done. I would like to Barron come up and play. His stock would soar. I think Burky is an over priced 3LW and could easily replace him. He was hot but now not. I could see this trade being Burky or Jost, I hear the scouts like Ranta. So change this to Jost, Ranta, and a 1st and deal done.

Thread: Scouts are watching the AHL games
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xqb15a</b></div><div>Holy over pay Batman
Out
Jost, Bowers, Compher, Barron, Helm, Murray, NAK, Kaut, 1st, 2nd, 3rd (11 pieces, 11!) including 5 regulars from the lineup
In
Giroux (rental), Braun, Toffoli, Galchenyuk, Lyubushkin. Christ the team is in 1st place in the league, and BTW can’t play Vegas in the semi’s. If you’re doing Giroux don’t even bother with MTL or AZ deals.</div></div>

You need MTL or Arizona in the deal to make the money work. Jost, JT, Murray are fringe players. JT and Murray are easily replaced. They are overpaid. Braun is only needed if Byram is out the season. Lyubushkin are insurance incase Byram is out. If Bo is back for the playoffs Joe doesn't have to make that trade. As for Bowers and Kaut they need a new start. Their work in the AHL is mediocre and obviously not helping Colorado. I think they can develop into NHLers but they need a new start. They are not cracking the Avs lineup. NAK has been a nice add but he is seeing declining TOI. Best to get some value. Galchenyuk showed some real spark playing the Avs before the break. His size is what Colorado needs. Nuke Showed the way on that. Giroux and Toffi are the real assets. I don't consider G a rental when we lose Kadri in the offseason we will give the 5MM to G. If we win the cup this year no way G doesn't stay for year 2. As for when we play Vegas it's matter of when not if.
