Morris perhaps?Have the Avs been linked to any college UFA's?
Word on Joel Quenneville is he wants to go somewhere where you can see a path to victory.
I can't see us firing Bednar though, especially if we make the playoffs.From 31 thoughts. If we get a top 2 pick and Panarin, we definitely fill that criteria.
Who knows maybe Quenneville will be open to a Mike Yeo situation where he awkwardly comes on as an assistant waiting patiently for the current coach to go away.I can't see us firing Bednar though, especially if we make the playoffs.
And from how things ended between us last time.

Wasnt there that one kid like 3 years ago that Chambers wrote an article about possible helping the Avalanches scoring issues even though he was just going into college? Forgot his name, maybe he is coming soon!!
Does Philly even need Barrie? I would think Ghost is probably all they need on the blueline for smurfy offense.Purely hypothetical situation here, I'm not an advocate for trading Barrie at all but for conversations sake...
Tyson Barrie + Colorado 1st(Lets assume it's #16) to Philly for Nolan Patrick + Philly 1st(Lets assume it is #12)
Anybody from our end doing that trade? It's a rare scenario where I could get behind trading Barrie. My injury concerns about Patrick have largely been answered now with his b2b ~75 game seasons. The offense isn't quite figured out from him yet but I would be confident in saying he'll be a very good 2C in the NHL within a year or two from now. I dont like moving Barrie but especially if we were to get to see Makar in some NHL action this year and he looks extremely good... combined with Barrie maybe seeking quite a lot of money on his next deal... I could get behind it.
Especially if the draft lottery doesn't work out in our favor with the #1 pick. Patrick would be our future 2C. We could then draft Byram with Ottawa's pick if it falls to 3/4, or just get Kakko to pair with Patrick if we get the #2 pick while Makar eventually(Within a year or two IMO) replaces Barries offense entirely in the Top 4. While also getting to move up in the draft to the tell end of that big tier from ~5-12 in the draft, and a chance at snagging the faller out of that group. Good chance at getting a Boldy/Zegras/Soderstrom/Caufield/whoever in this group, or perhaps trading the pick for more help next season.
Anyway, pure hypothetical and I doubt we see anything this crazy happen from Joe, just wondering what you guys think of the value on Barrie in such a trade(And I guess Patrick as well).

One thing that give's me pause is trading out of Knight range. I really hope the avs are in a spot to really invest in the goalie pipeline. I think Patrick is a great option but between the ott pick and FA options, I think they could go a different route a barrie trade and fill more future roster holes in one off season.Alllllll day
What makes you say that?Patrick won’t ever be better than an average #2C and that isn’t even guaranteed...
That’s kind of what I’ve gotten from watching him this year, too.Patrick won’t ever be better than an average #2C and that isn’t even guaranteed...
