My take on Landeskog.
Hes a border line first line winger... sure he desnt produce 60-70 points but you gotta look at the team hes on. The Avalanche suck offesinvily and defensivly. On a good team with a good coach, Landeskog will produce 60+ points, under Boucher he will. He is Much, much better then Ryan. landeskog has leadership, skill and he actually puts effort into his play day-in and out. Unfortunatley he isnt producing like many think he should be, but again, Colorado is a bad team under a bad caoch.
Can we get him? I mean we could, but it's not worth it.
The Avalanche will want a young defenseman. Not Ceci, Chabot. The Avalanche can certainley get someone better then Ceci. Chabotsthe guy they will want. They won't want White or Brown, they already have Duchene and Mackinnon down the middle, and Jost coming up later.
From our POV, if they asked for Chabot, sure its good value, but I'd still not make the deal. We are most likely going to lose Methot or Ceci at the expansion, whos going to replace them later on? It has to be Chabot. We need Chabot if we want to keep a solid top 4.
So no, chances of us getting Landeskog are very low unless we give up Chabot, which likely wont, and we shouldnt.
