Rumor: Avs Proposals/Rumors/Free Agents 18-19 part XX|All Aboard the Do Nothing Train!

[henchman21]

The real question is, after Barrie is inevitably traded for a burly, strong defensemen that is twice the man Barrie is...Does MacKinnon demand a trade?

I know this is in jest, but I don't think we are terribly far from going down that path...

It is pretty crazy to think that Landy doesn't even have 2.5 years left on his deal.

Oh, it's definitely a reality I think the Avs could be facing if they don't start actually planning and working towards a strategy for the upcoming years. This sit and wait, passive react to what the world gives you instead of a proactive approach will definitely cause us to be a continual cycle of rebuilding while trading one superstar for the next "bright spot"

So I've been thinking about this for a while.
If Sens don't have Joe on their ignore list, we offer our first round pick (top 10 protected), jost and anyone not on our top line for Stone. We then wine and dine this guy like nothing else. Promise the top minutes with Mack, or whatever concerns he may have. Hell I'd even change our names to the Colorado Stones if he wanted.
Sign him for 8 years at 9 million. He's worth more than anyone we could draft in this year's top 10. Still have another possible lottery pick.
Pick up another FA center this summer. if we can't find the legitimate number two then move soda up and let jt take the third over. I realize it won't help our goalie situation but if we are gonna lose, let's do it 13-11.
My young daughter is still a huge Duchene fan so I watched as much senator hockey as I do Colorado. This guy is a monster. On our team he's easily our top forward. Normally a team that has Stone on it would never let him even sniff free agency. Not many opportunities like this come around. It's not like we have a huge history of drafting home runs in our first round. Not saying that this might be the case but if that locker room is getting his toxic at this board Mack will want out sooner than later.

They can get more than we can offer from just about anyone. We'd have to give them their pick back but thats like a fixed point in time , cant change it, cant go back, its done.

For a UFA Stone they wouldn't get more then his theoretical offer of Col 1st + Jost + Makar. That's a ridiculously stupid overpayment for a UFA.



For a signed Stone it's perhaps closer but again Makar should not be involed in anyway.

 

[Mighty Makar]

Avs’ 1st (top 10 protected), Kaut and Kerfoot/Timmins for Stone (with an extension in place).

 

[Iceberg]

Risto sucks haha, imo he is completely irrelevant to that. TB is a player that can make them better now and going forward for a playoff push and they don't lose anything that they don't have a surplus of.

Risto is their Barrie, even if Barrie is better i think they should hold on to their assets until they see what happens between Trouba and the Jets.

Makar how's it made our team yet Einstein. So don't say things that were not in The proposal. Funny how you do that often

"Anyone not on our top line"


Didn't know Cale Makar was on our top line now. Genius

 

[AvsMakar08]

Hey, does anyone remember a poster on here, his name was MarkT. He was posting a lot on here but no longer does.

 

[Mighty Makar]

I remember.

 

[AvsMakar08]

I remember.

I mean, it seemed like he was posting so often and had many great discussions. I thought that he would become one of us, the hardcore Avs fans. It was fun reading him and some other posters discussing different topics. It's always welcoming to read different opinions and thoughts.

Not always


Sometimes you just have to let Snowflakes melt.

 

[cgf]

Right now the Avs don't have a replacement for Soda and he is doing HEAVY carrying for the massive lack of depth past the top line. If the Avs were to move him they would essentially be forfeiting any playoff hopes this year and next until they were able to obtain another similar player.

The Avs simply can't afford to move him right now which is why there isn't a lot of talk about it.

Not true. We have Bowers.

Sounds like we could use some:
Gibson Rakell Kadri - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps

 

[CB Joe]

Bowers isn't going to come in and do what Soderberg does any time soon.

 

[cgf]

I've had enough of your lies. Prospects don't require development, they are ready to be whatever you want them to be, whenever you want them to be.

If nothing else, a Nikita Zadorov - Nikita Zaitsev pairing would be hilarious just because of the names

 

[Hornstar]

Didn't know Cale Makar was on our team now. Your name isn't Missy by chance? I swear you have to be my toxic ex wife

How on-brand of you...

That team looks nice

Not once in your post did you specify anything about being on the team or not being on the team. All you said was "Colorado 1st + Jost + anyone not on the top line". Cale Makar is not on the top line.


I'm sorry if proper English is difficult for you, my apologies for not realizing you experienced such struggles.

That defense doesn't look too great. Would rather give up Barrie and keep EJ. Also drop Zaitsev. That guy is beyond terrible.

It had to be really difficult making one of those with Rads..

I'd hire you as a GM though. The roster still looks good even if you get one of your backup options besides Stone.
