The Avs will not get another "good defenseman". There are none available. We just need a reliable bottom-pair guy to replace Boddy/Redmond, and maybe another depth forward with future upside. Anything more than that costs too much and compromises the future.
Did anybody actually read the article I posted from the Avs official site? That's about as authoritative as anybody can ask for. This is why I've been avoiding the boards lately, and probably will continue to until the TDL hits and all this nonsense is finally done. There will be no major signings or splashy moves.
Sakic said he wouldn't move any top picks or prospects for Rentals. Not that they wouldn't make any major signings or splashy moves.
Not sure you guys seen my post in the last page but I suggested Kris Russell from Calgary. He's a LD who is good for 30 points a year and has always been a plus player. Even on this years horrible Flames team. He is a slight upgrade on Holden and a pretty good passer. He is another smaller Barrie type. UFA after this year. Could probably get him rather cheap I think since Flames are sellers.
Pass. He's better than Bods...but there's a lot of other dmen who are better than Bodnarchuck and actually fit what we need.
Man it would be nice to get Hamonic out of New York. He is exactly what this team needs. Would probably cost us one of Barrie, Zadorov, Bigras though at the least.
Beauch EJ
Holden Barrie
Bigras Hamonic
That is solid. Bet we would go 15-7 to end the last 22 games of the season.
Would you trade Zadorov and a 2nd for Hamonic? Would that even be enough?
**** no
