Thread: Everyone STFU About Taylor Hall
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>slapshot723</b></div><div>But the point is to just trade for him as a rental, don't worry about re-signing him. Giving up a 1st round pick and a prospect makes so much sense to go for it this season. I'm not saying he's your missing piece, but it wouldn't be risky to trade some pieces for a guy that can help you this season. I actually do think Kreider would be a great fit as well, and you'll have a better chance of re-signing him than Hall. But don't get caught up in re-signing him.</div></div>

That makes it even worse, give up top assets for 3 months when he really doesn’t add much in terms of strengthen and avs weakness.

Avs don’t need a hall to put them over the top, they already have 2 elite forwards and a budding superstar in makar.

Hall just isn’t worth it when what you will get out of him can be accomplished with a Kreider level forward

Sakic doesn’t trade away top assets for rentals, so if they load up it’s for a piece they are keeping. Like I said hall is a nice to have but I think he’s a bad fit on the avs with what role he will be put in on the second line. Adding hall doesn’t seem like sakics kind of move

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mhockey91</b></div><div>exactly lmao. imagine how good avs would be with hall.

landy-mac-rantenen
hall-kadri-Donskoi

oh lord thats a nice top 6</div></div>

Hall is a nice to have but hes not a necessary piece the Avs desperately need, especially at his price tag to extend (10-11m) and if you trade for him all the young assets you have to give up. Even without Landeskog and Rantanen, Avs have the 4th best team offense in the league with 2 games in hand over the top in Nashville.

What more does Hall add? A couple more goals to be 11m 2nd line Winger? (he cant take Landys spot bc a defesensive minded winger who take draws has to be paired with Mack, thats what makes that line balanced)

Or could the Avs accomplish the same thing in their top 6 at half the cost in a guy like Kreider who brings other elements to his game than hall who really is just an offensive weapon. Mark Stone I would have backed up the brinks truck and unloaded for bc of his elite 2 way game and being a ppg player. Hall, doesnt do it as much bc when you already are one of the top scoring teams in the league already, without 2/3 of your top line, what more does Hall add after Mikko and Landy come back?

Thread: The Curious Case of Tyson Jost
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>so you make an outrageous claim based on a convo you had in a leafs thread, with no actual no avs fans making this claim, just your word. For all yuo know this guy (if real) could have been mocking you about Stastny bc this was the time of leaf fans throwing out Bozak and a 2nd for Stastny trade 100 times a day.</div></div>

Dude give me some credit. I worked hard to try to find a conversation I had 8 years ago. I admit I couldn't find it but I was able to find second hand evidence I had had the conversation. Is it so hard for you to accept that someone could have had that opinion? It was obviously silly enough that I remember the conversation to this day.

Why are you being so aggressive. I was pleased I could find any evidence of the convo after all this time, even if I couldn't find the original convo itself.

But yes that's all the evidence I have... Lighten up

Thread: The forecast looks sunny
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>franky_22</b></div><div>I will not spend again on Varlamov. I take the highest bid around the deadline and there is a good chance that he brings back a 1st rounder and +. Let Grubauer and Francouz do the work between the pipes. I wouldn't go for Hayes. Already a lot of C around. Take a good ticket for a star winger instead. Panarin or Stone or Skinner. I think Mikko will not accept anything down to 68-70 million on a maximum 8 years deal. And it would be a very great deal For Colorado. Otherwise he will prefer to trust himself on a bridge deal (a la Kucherov) and go for McDavid range money next time. Cannot wait for the next draft!!</div></div>

I think varly is a fantastic goalie, but is injury prone, I had hoped grubauer stole the show this year but hes been not great, and francouz is an unknown...
I think that mikko hits 7 mill maybe a bit more because sakic is kinda cheap and I dont think he'll wanna pay much more than MacKinnon is getting..
Panarin is going to the rangers he just has to wait until July 1st, stones a maybe but I dont want to pay him over 7 either, and skinner is a natural goal scorer but I think he resigns in buffalo
