[AvsWraith]

Wonder if Talbutt requested the trade?

 

[linusandvarlamov]

So happy Talbot's gone !! The man was a wreck in general but more so when playing on the top lines !!

 

[Avsboy]

Ducks are going to win the cup. Said it before the TD, I will say it after.

 

[Nzap]

I think they just wanted to get rid of Talbot's contract and get a warm body back who might become a bottom-6 player.

 

[TheStranger]

But suck.

My least favorite player on the team. Briere and Hejda sticking around is worth it for me.

Is that his fault? You insult a player because he's burnt out and his career is essentially over?

Yeah **** you Talbot for coming to Colorado, how dare you. Die in a fire. Amirite?

 

[Avsboy]

Talbot moving is phenomenal news. Not only was he a marginal hockey player and a diver, but it shows Sakic and Roy are willing to admit mistakes.

 

[viach]

others players involve in Talbot trade??

I simply do not understand you.

Mike Halford ‏@HalfordPHT 51s51 seconds ago
Colorado assistant Andre Tourigny traded for and coached Jordan Caron at QMHL Rouyn-Noranda, so that's the connection there.

 

[captaincheese]

I like Talbot because he beat the Red Wings in the playoffs when he was the Penguins.

Jordon Caron looks like a future player though, has upside. Pretty happy.

Would rather still have Steve Downie though.

You're taking it a little further than I was insinuating.

I'm just more than ecstatic to have him off the team, get rid of Cliche and I'd be overjoyed to get the primary garbage off the forward group.

 

[Ivan13]

Caron sucks.

 

[UncleRisto]

Well they wouldn't want Downie either.

 

[JoemAvs]

Why didn't they just claim him when he was on waivers earlier this year?

 

[HartKinnon]

So does this mean that MacK is homeless now? Things have been pretty rough for our young star. Benched, 4th line, broken nose and now homeless.

 

[BoxOfChocolates]

This clears a contract in Talbot

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

Why didn't they just claim him when he was on waivers earlier this year?

Well, they don't have to add a contract and now they have cap space.

Calling someone "A little puke" because you feel he isn't a good player anymore is hard to take any other way.

Anyway.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Caron sucks.

So does Talbot. And Caron is younger bigger and costs less.

 

[Avsboy]

lmao

 

[DanglesFromDuchene]

Talbot seemed like a likeable guy. Thought he did fine with us when asked to play within his role.

 

[agentblack]

I guess they could have claimed him but the Avs (at least from what I observe) were standing pat at 49 contracts no matter what.

 

[AslanRH]

Gotta hope Caron is one of those late developing power-type players.

Otherwise be grateful for the cap relief and call it a day.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Yes.
