Confirmed with Link: McCormick for Beaudin

[Frenchy]

By necessity or by actually bring decent?

i dont understand the trade from the Avs POV.
To me he was a decent player and had a shot to play in the NHL one day. But now that he's in the Ottawa system i think his chances are even bigger to play with the Sens even more so if you take the french factor into the equation.

 

[Ice-Tray]

Pretty sure JC Beaudin will turn into an NHL player with the sens.

I hope you’re right, that would be nice

Another win for Dorion

Clearing up cap space before the big trash gets dumped on us.

Fixed.

 

[FolignoQuantumLeap]

Kinda like us dealing Gagne.

Klimchuk was looking like a good reclamation project until he injured himself for the season. Hopefully we have better luck with Beaudoin (like SJ with Perron). Colorado's development system is pretty trash so maybe we can turn him in the right direction.

Seems like a deal to help the AHL team and make a push for the playoffs there.

McCormick is a complete scrub as an NHLer, but he's a top-6 guy in the AHL who plays his heart out. Good guy to have as a playoff addition (at that level).

The trade signals to me that the Avs have kinda given up on Beaudin.

Trading a better AHL player for a worse one (for now) is a win? I'm all in favour of getting rid of McCormick but Beaudin is barely making the lineup in the AHL.

Is it a win because McCormick makes more on a one way deal? You mean the deal that Dorion paid out for multiple years getting little to no NHL return and at the last minute dumped on the Avs so that their team could use him in a AHL playoff run?

Like I said, I'm glad McCormick will no longer take a few NHL minutes from a real prospect but nothing about this trade or Max McCormick and his association with Dorion screams win to me.

 

[Hale The Villain]

This is the reverse of the Gagne for Klimchuk deal.

Now this time we get the younger player that still may have a slight chance of ending up an NHLer, at the cost of downgrading at the AHL level.

Nothing trade in the grand scheme of things.

 

[DrEasy]

Yeah, it's the Gagne or Perron story in reverse. I wonder if Beaudin requested a trade.

 

[Beville]

Don’t let this distract you from the fact that we still haven’t signed Stone and Duchene...

Absolutely they are trying to make room for contracts next year as Mccormick is a UFA and they can let him walk while Beaudin has another year.

 

[topshelf15]

Meh I liked him ,and he is a hell of alot cheaper than Zsmith in the bottom 6 .if just to add some grit down there ...But whatever not really anything special

 

[Six Assets]

Mccormick was probably the least skilled sen I've ever seen

 

[foggyvisor]

I remember that rookie tournament where he fought someone and scored a goal and we pencilled him into the future top 6.

Pretty sure JC Beaudin will turn into an NHL player with the sens.

That's not much of a feat tbh

Another win for Dorion

High fives from everyone. Followed by,.......”who the f*** is beaudin?”

I like the trade it is actually a win. A very small one again. He wins the tiny insignificant moves and gets destroyed on all the significant ones

 

[swiftwin]

destroyed on all the significant ones

Melnyk does.
