Woooo I was hoping when I couldn’t get on that it was us who crashed it. Slow Joe does it again....

 

[Cypher]

What can we expect for short term contract? Graves Money?

Really tough to say. You don't see many 26 year olds who have only played 2 seasons (48 GP and 68 GP respectively).

Do you do a 2 year prove it on the Avs deal around 3 mill or do 4 x 4 ?

If it's 4x4, they need to move out salary to fit under the cap.

Be interesting for expansion draft now. Makar, Girard, Toews.. and ask EJ to waive, if not, need to protect 4F/4D

 

[The Merchant]

Hooooooly f***ing shit. If Vegas thought we were the favorites BEFORE Saad and Toews...

 

[Gatorbait19]

I think this is a somewhat low key championship type move

 

[John Mandalorian]

Makar, Girard, EJ have to be protected. Toews has to be exposed if EJ won't waive

What if we do the 8 and 1?

 

[Richard88]

Our D is incredibly stacked right now. Ideally we'd swap Cole for a RHD but other than that this is perfectly balanced.

Toews ---- Makar
Girard --- Johnson
Graves --- Cole
Byram --- Timmins
Gilbert --- Barron
Zhurav. -- Helleson

 

[JH21]

Toews - Makar
Girard - EJ
Graves - Cole
Byram- Timmins
Gilbert

Man oh man. Unreal

 

[El Travo]

I'm excited now.

 

[jfc64]

When I see someting nice to wear I usually find it is expensive.

Aha, Islanders try to fit Barzal and Pulock under 9.


Can we find something cheap and good among these? Maybe even finding cap space? Haula for 1.0 trading Jost etc.

[Richard88]

Can anyone translate this acid trip to English please.

Sure.

It means that Toews outperforms lol I'm so happy right now that's what it means

 

[a mangy Meowth]

Graves n Toews boys, let's go

 

[KingSizeKirby]

We now have a solid top 6 and top 4! Let’s go Sakic!!!

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

So...

Toews/Makar
G/EJ
Gravy/Cole
Byram

Or does G flip to the right and they go:

Toews/Makar
Graves/G
Byram/EJ
Cole

?

 

[Richard88]

Does this mean that we can go back to liking Graves again?

 

[Avs_19]

Sakic was dropping hints with his answers earlier today. Don't doubt the man.

 

[The Abusement Park]

Thank you for making me look like a dick with my impatience Joe you beautiful bastard.

 

[hockeyfish]

I do think this means Byram is out of the picture for the year though.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Don’t know anything about the guy, but sounds like we got a good one from what you guys are saying.

 

[Papa Francouz]

Some Islanders fans saying don't put him on the top pairing because he'll get eaten alive there. I wonder if there's any truth to that. I'm hoping Toews is the guy to push Graves down the lineup, but I guess we'll see come December.

 

[Richard88]

Dorion
Poile
Dubas
Bowman
Lamoriello

 

[Chiarelli]

K for this upcoming season sweet but what about expansion draft and then having him girard and byram all on the left moving forward?

 

[Avs_19]

Some Islanders fans saying don't put him on the top pairing because he'll get eaten alive there. I wonder if there's any truth to that. I'm hoping Toews is the guy to push Graves down the lineup, but I guess we'll see come December.

I think they should put him next to Makar right away on the top pair.

 

[henchman21]

I do think this means Byram is out of the picture for the year though.

I'd say that is pretty likely, but if he forced the Avs' hand, Toews moves to the right and the Avs go with:

Graves-Makar
G-Toews
Byram-EJ

There is flexibility in his game to swap around. Part of why this is such an excellent move.

 

[Freaky Styley]

This is a Cup winning trade. Best move of our offseason. Wow what a get. Love people always doubting Joe lol
