Thread: Realistic
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tereiand</b></div><div>Hello everyone. I made the Avs overpay for Abby because of his grit and locker room presence. I believe that COL is lacking a guy to protect their young stars, they are gonna be a playoff team anyways, trades like this happen every year. (If this happens irl there will be some sort of conditions)</div></div>

Might need to look at Abby's contract again before you say that though. I can't fathom a trade like the one you've shown above for a 4.6M till 22-23, 31 year old winger who has a NTC and is fitting less and less in the new NHL style game. Sure he brings intangibles and teams still need it but it can be had for far less what Abdelkader is getting. Not to mention that what you say Colorado needs can be acquired at the TDL for a pending UFA at a fraction of the cost and no long term contract to worry about.

I feel the Nyquist trade may be a bit high but I can see a team paying a first for him but it wont be a team that is would be just barely making the playoffs like Edmonton. it'll be a team that feels they are a contender and want to bolster their offense. Similar to what Vegas did with Tatar last year. (And we all know how that turned out but that is besides the point)

Vanek for a 3rd is probably the most accurate and totally believable. Although Vanek has a NTC so he could very well like to spend an entire year with a team for a change and not be another TDL acquisition like the past 3 years. Guys life has been in constant flux ever since being bought out by Minny.
