AVS SEND STATSNY TO JACKETS FOR BRASSARD AND MORE
Despite reports they would hold onto the talented Centre, Colorado shipped Paul to Columbus for Centre
Derek Brassard, Winger
Nikita Filatov, and the 8th Overall Pick in the 2011 Draft
"We feel Matt Duchene has been progressing well. Our confdence in his potential, as well as getting a talented C in Brassard back, made this deal possible."
With THREE picks now in the Top 11 (#2, #8, #11), Colorado is not done dealing. A strong D-man and a Goalie are still high on the priority list, as well as moving up or down or stocking up on 2012 picks
