Rumor: AVS Proposals/Rumors/Free Agents & Related Topics 2016-17 Part XV

[Nalens Oga]

Yeah I'm just furious we aren't making any rebuild moves yet. Meloche, Greer, Compher, Bigras, etc....these are all top 3 round guys. They aren't all gonna be hits but you collect enough picks in the top 100 then you start to see a payoff eventually.

 

[InjuredChoker]

damn fake accounts.

 

[Foppberg]

Gulp

 

[Gigantor The Goalie]

damn fake accounts.

 

[The Abusement Park]

damn fake accounts.

What happened?

 

[hockeyfish]

Think I'd rather trade Iggy for a 2nd or a 3rd than a Lazar. We seem to have some good amateur scouting picks for once, get those guys some more picks to work with.

damn fake accounts.

what was it this time.

 

[AslanRH]

There isn't a rental on this team that is in high enough demand to be a real early trade.

I'm not sure what people were expecting.

 

[InjuredChoker]

fake account for staples, isles beat writer, tweeted that grabo was put on LTIR and a move was imminent.

 

[Nalens Oga]

Boston's been quiet....maybe Sweeney does fess up and take Landeskog off our hands.

I was expecting one or two of them to get moved like a month or two ago. I think they just left it too late, we could've gotten more picks back if they'd been active, I see at most a couple guys going now.

I've seen other teams in our position start moving guys out months earlier not waiting the week of.

Habs are using Galchenyuk on the wing again tonight. Their centre depth right now is Danault, Plekanec, and DD. If Bergevin doesn't add a high end centre within the next 48 hours, after what he did this off-season + signing Julien, I'd fire him right after the deadline were I the owner (obviously not, but that would be it for me personally). He's had years to fix their appalling centre's and he's never managed it, despite making other moves that clearly indicate 'win now'. At some point that has to put his job on the line.


Edit: to add to that, the commentators just said that, with 5 minutes left in the 2nd, Galchenyuk has only played 6 minutes Guess two coaches aren't big fans of his now.

Thats what we call a "soft scratch," trade incoming!!!

 

[Lord Moriarty007]

Hopefully, the Habs lose tonight.... That might help our cause!

 

[Nalens Oga]

Bergevin's had years to fix his centre problem, Chevaldayoff has had more than half a decade to fix his goaltending, Sakic's had years to get a top pairing dman (albeit that one's tougher to fix).....none of these guys have done it and still have cushy jobs.

 

[Cousin Eddie]

Habs are all kinds of bad tonight

Did he sleep with Therrien and Juliens daughters? Holy crap

 

[Avs44]

This Habs team is just pathetically devoid of creativity. What a game to have before the deadline. At this point I'm sure Bergevin would be drooling over Galchenyuk for Duchene, and I'm sure Julien would love Duchene too (assistant for team Canada in past, including 2014 Olympics). The real problem is getting him to add Sergachev too, which was apparently Sakic's ask

 

[Balthazar]

Hope the Habs score 0 goal in the 3rd.

I'd add to Duchene to get this one done.

 

[Avs44]

I'd add to Duchene to get this one done.

I wouldn't, not a chance. Duchene is the better player in every aspect of the game - and the Avs need defense, and Bergevin has to be desperate.

 

[dahrougem2]

I'm just going to continue saying it until the trade deadline passes but I don't know how Marc Bergevin looks at his roster, looks at his cap situation for the next two seasons, and then looks at who is available this very moment in Matt Duchene and isn't doing everything in his power to get a deal done.

 

[Balthazar]

You really wouldn't add to Duchene to get Galchenyuk + Sergachev? Did you misread the post or..?

 

[Avs44]

You'd not add to Duchene to get Galchenyuk + Sergachev?

I thought you meant just Duchene for Galchenyuk I don't know what I thought I read. Hell yeah, I'd add to get the two of them together.

 

[forsbergavs32]

What would we be willing to add to it? Seems like we would have to add the 2017 1st to get that done

 

[tucker3434]

Hell no. I'd consider a Greer or Compher or Bigras. Not a Jost or #4.

Sakic's ask of a top young D, ++ has been increased after Hanzel's trade. Galchenyuk and Sergachev just wont cut it for us. It needs to be 1st overall and another top prospect. Depending on their their age it should be Avs Dutchy 1 vs 4, including a 1st pick or 1 vs 3 if Colorado receives two high end prospects.
