All of the trades were worth it. You have to take shots while you can.
Bro, you are talking to a fanbase that has folks who are still pissed that we wasted a 1st on Kuemper.All of the trades were worth it. You have to take shots while you can.
We did.I wanted to see playoff RyJo
Walker was fine. He might not have done as good as we initially thought he would but calling this trade a mistake, let alone two, is ridiculous. Everybody here were very happy with this this trade when it was made. CMac's TDL was considered a success by all the day after. The only complaint some had and it was mostly minor was not getting a goalie and it turns out it was not an issue in the end.Very disappointed in Walker. CMac made a bad decision with RyJo and made another one with Walker.
Those 2 mistakes costed a 1st round pick.
Only way I take him back is if he takes 2.5M AAV and replaces Manson on the 2nd pairing.Lots of talk he would $5M in the offseason.... Would have to thing that price has come down. If it starts with a $3.x, I wouldnt mind brining him back
Literally everyone here that I've seen understood and was fine with that. They knew the price and it worked out perfectlyBro, you are talking to a fanbase that has folks who are still pissed that we wasted a 1st on Kuemper.
He's still an RHD who can be passable in the top 4, and he has some puck moving skills, too. That CV is not easy to come by these days, especially in UFA. Some GM is going to overpay him by a substantial amount, and it's not going to be CMac.Lots of talk he would $5M in the offseason.... Would have to thing that price has come down.

He played. He was 96 and was somehow playing with a left stickI wanted to see playoff RyJo
Agreed. A shame this one looked better on paper than it played out on the ice.All of the trades were worth it. You have to take shots while you can.
So basically paid a 2nd to get Walker.During his first games i thought "man, this was a great trade"..... In hindsight, we maybe overpaid. But hey, we got RyJo of the team in the process.
Will hit Free Agency and will have many teams lined up ready to overpay.
So, another Sammy G.Remember these situations when someone brings up analytics to define how good/bad a player is in the future.
Walker was supposed to be this two way diamond in the rough analytic darling, but it didn't translate to on ice performance. It just translated to being able to skate the puck out of the D zone well, which doesn't necessarily mean you're that good offensively, or defensively.
So, another Sammy G.
Nope. Sammy is quite good at that.So, another Sammy G.
They made deadline grabs 3 out of the last 4 seasons. Probably opted to sit out last year knowing Landeskog was not coming back.Absolutely ridiculous to slam the deadline moves. The Avs finally were active instead of sitting on their asses. The GM did his part at the deadline, didn´t work out in the playoffs but it was 100% the right decision.
