Confirmed Trade: [COL/OTT] Vladislav Namestnikov for 2021 4th round pick

[izzy]

lame return

 

[Rumplesnipeskin]

Seems like a solid trade to improve the team, a fair deal at a time when we usually see inflated prices. Time will tell, as with all trades.

Great buy for a 4th rounder

 

[GirardSpinorama]

Not bad.

 

[Karl Eriksson]

Bang on market value.

Thought he'd return a 3rd for sure, good deal for the Avs.

 

[jetsforever]

Seems awful cheap

 

[missionAvs]

Good deal for us but I feel like we're still lacking in some areas.

 

[Danvalanche]

Decent!

 

[SpezDispenser]

And so begins dudline day for Ottawa. Pageau for a 3rd incoming.

Shut up! Just shut up!

Sakic continues his trade streak...all trades count regardless of the size.

And the Rangers are retaining $750k.

Edit: NYR did. NM

I had a fun time in the summer arguing with people how Namestnikov's value is not "at least a 2nd round pick". Instead, he gets flipped twice for a 4th round pick.

He's not just a valuable player in GM's eyes.

 

[Michoulicious]

Kovalchuk got more. Let that sink in.

John Moore could have been had...he’s better if not just as good.

 

[The Devilish Buffoon]

Wow, figured he’d be worth more. Didn’t Ottawa trade a “better” 4th to acquire him? Felt like he bumped his value up a bit since then. They actually seem to have downgraded a 4th in this process. Good pickup for Colorado though.

They downgraded their 4th but also got a season of Namestnikov, which has more value than a 20 pick jump in the 4th round (worth maybe a 6th or 7th?)

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

Good trade by Sakic. Namestnikov provides great depth for the Avs.

GAR is dumb

 

[Avelanche]

Can’t not read it as Namestinkoff

 

[Bileur]

Nice pickup for Colorado. He’s very versatile and can fill in up and down the lineup.

 

[AvsFan29]

I’ll take that any day

 

[Atas2000]

Kovalchuk got more. Let that sink in.

Kovalchuk has a higher P/GP FWIW

I predicted a 4th + Jost for Namestnikov + 6th on the Avs board yesterday.


So we certainly did way better than I expected and got a guy I expected us to get. Yet another good deal by Joe Sakic.

Is Jost just a Yakupov-level throw in now? I think Sens fans were predicting a 3rd return of investment on the 4th round pick we put in. I'd have thought Jost was worthy of a 2nd.

 

[2020 Cup Champions]

Cheap depth if nothing else.
