Feels like we are going to move some of our better prospects in the AHL and just want to make sure we have enough warm bodies??
I'll be surprised if Kaut doesn't get moved, personally.
I wouldn't be surprised if the Avs make some moves with their prospects... not a ton of room on the roster and some still have solid value to return what the Avs need. If you can parlay Timmins/Kaut/Bowers + 3rd into a good backup goalie that is here a few seasons, to me that is a solid move.
Now with these moves, the Avs tend to do these in bunches and announce them that way. With no official announcement, they don't seem to be done and are organizing a bit for next year. If you look at the defense in Loveland in particular, it looks rough... Timmins is make or break in the NHL at that point, so not an option. Gilbert is a RFA and should be brought back. Now we have Middleton and Clurman to add as well. Still that is only 3 roster spots. Barron is likely to make that 4. There isn't any other prospect that is
clear to be brought in... only 2 others are really
ready in Zhura and Leivermann. Looks to me they are setting up next year's Eagles lineup and figuring out what they need while trying to have some continuity.
