<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>ugh....yeah this isnt going to happen

EJ will be ready for opening night, you are noy trading away Zads for picks, Mikko will sign for more even on a bridge deal. Why would you move Calvert who is an important player for that bottom 6 and PK, Graves does not play Zads game nor does he play it better. Graves is not physical who hits

In no way are the Avs going to have 5 rookies making up a Dcore....yikes</div></div>


Haha! OK maybe I'm 1 year in advance with this lineup...

Calvert: honestly, Greer can take his task easily. It's time for the Avs to make a place for him, not just for a 3 or 4 game callups with a 4 minutes playing time. And for Kamenev, this guy has all the tools: skate, vision, hands, IQ, 2-way skills. IMO in no way I play Calvert and Nieto this season instead of Greer and Kamenev.

Byram will most likely have his 9 games and will be back in juniors. Unless he is extremely good at his tryout. It's good if EJ is ready! But if he's not, no problem in playing Timmins and Rosen. I want to see these guys 100 times before Barberio and Connauton. And Z, I like him. I know he hits hard and his teammates love him. But apart from hitting, what is Z ? Didn't have a huge impact for the Avs in the last playoffs. He is very capable of putting you in trouble too. I'm just saying that Graves can take his job and that he's a better hockey player overall than Z. He's mobile as well and has a bomb as a shot. I saw Graves play often in the Q at the time, playing 25 minutes and quarterbacking the PP. At 6.05 225lbs he can defend himself too. He can hit but you're right it's not neccessary in his nature if you compare to Z. But give him Zadorov's minutes and you'll be surprised how good he can be.

I'm not telling you it's going to happen. I tell you that I didn't have any problem in playing these talent young guys as early as this year. But like I said above, maybe it's 2020-2021.
