Help us understand how an expansion-at-risk D, recently acquired for 2 2nds, should bring back 2 1st's, one being Caufield, who's early NHL returns validate his potential upside

Did you mean Makar?

Habs don’t have what it takes to get Makar. Also, the Avs aren’t giving up Toews for something they do not need. Caufield is an excellent piece and a fairer ask would be a one for one swap that had Byram going through other way. Still not a good trade for the Avs, but it’s closer in value.


Get out of here with the Makar ask, that’s just stupid.

How is he an expansion at risk D? He’s going to be protected and rightfully so. He’s a huge reason the Avs have the best defense in the league. You’re just willfully ignorant on Toews if that’s your take on him.

I didnt ask for Makar,
my point was responding to the ridiculous return over-overpayment asked for Toews.

Wow! My point was only that he'd require protection. An undeniable fact.

so you responded by just being abrasive AND ignorant instead of just saying”no thanks”, got it
I aint the one being abrasive or ignorant.
I have no skin in this game.
The proposal is bizarrely unbalanced

"Thank you sir may I have another" Bergevin is able to mumble from behind his ball gag as the leather straps hold him tight bent over the barrel

Hell no from the Avs.
Thats really awful...

Toews has been an utter beast and (in part due to injuries) was used as the #1 all situations D for the team that is playing for the Presidents Trophy tonight...

Why would we throw that away for a very undersized winger (that should turn into a very good goalscorer ) we don't need and a late 1st?

While I agree it’s a terrible trade offer from the Habs POV, I’d say the same thing as an Avs fan! Heck no!

So you are choosing to expose Toews instead? Seattle thanks you for your generosity

Edit, ignore this i thought the post OP was trading Graves not Toews. Both teams respectfully decline
