Rumor: Avs considering Tatar as circle back option [Mod Warning in OP]

[Trinstin]

Fair that you feel you want to protect him. I doubt that you get Tatar and not give up one of Newhook or Byram. I know, you value them high but Habs not going to trade Tatar for less than what Coleman just returned.

Good luck with Kreider. Habs will gladly keep Tatar if we don't get the return we want.

Sakic doesn't strike me as someone who would trade an asset like Byram or Newhook so I guess I'm fine with the Avs never acquiring Tatar or Kreider.

What if I asked with a pretty please?

Sakic doesn't strike me as a man who cares about pleasantries at the negotiation table either.

Yup. We have so much cap we can get Kreider or even hall in ufa if we wanted to.

Burakovsky; Rantanen; Landeskog; donskoi; Nuke; compher. I'm happy with our winger depth regardless.

Yeah and it seems like, and I could be off on this completely of course, that Sakic is a GM that has studied the past and he probably realizes that Lecroix messed up most of the time with his deadline trades and rode on his, forsberg's, and roy's coat tails to actually get shit done.

 

[Bee Holder]

Well, now that Kreider re-signed, I guess Tuna's back on the menu...

I think Sakic went the cheap route and went with Namestnikov. I expect Sakic is more likely to try and pick up another cheap forward rather than circle back for Tatar.
