Ha. Would I prefer it if we made it back to a situation where the Avs might consider a rental? Yes, probably.
So following from the other thread: what's the view on Duchene's future with the team? I thought I remembered seeing someone say something about Duchene being considered one of your "older" players (at 25 ).
The two options we have is either Duchene sticks with the team for life and assumes the Thornton/Marleau veteran role on it or he's shipped out soon for another rebuild. The former would obviously be preferred but we have to start taking forward steps soon.
Well, I'll just tell you guys that we're starting to get a little restless over on the HFLightning board and there are some names being tossed around as tradeable that we're not typically comfortable uttering. Injuries aside, there seems to be some belief that the clubhouse may be getting a little complacent and the guys that should be stepping up and producing are not.
Food for thought.
If Duchene goes I riot.
The real statement is how none of you haven't rioted already. The team is already joke with Duchene, MacKinnon, EJ, Barrie, Varlamov, and Rantanen. Not saying we should trade everyone, but a couple gone is looking more like a great idea than not.
I would like to see a better supporting cast before telling the core to shove off. Even Crosby/Malkin/Letang had trouble dragging scrubs around.
We had a better supporting cast with O'Reilly and Stastny and we never got past the first round. So?
