Just found this on my phone. Taken less than two years ago.
So much have changed, minor changes but many of them.

I cant believe they are playing Hunwick... If Benoit's injury lingers AT ALL...bring up Barrie STAT.
Hunwick couldnt play his way out of a field...
The great start the Avs had looked very promising, although relatively easy schedule, no injuries until recently.
Now the schedule gets harder, injuries start to happen, and one glance at the roster, again it doesn't look like a playoff roster, and this is mainly on D.
Wild playing good,and with Blues and Hawks there, I'm gonna go ahead and say if the Avs don't upgrade the D and soon, they wont make the playoffs
With Tanguay hurt, who do you want them to move for a dman? If we ship someone from offense, its going to be someone that we severely miss. None of our offensive prospects would net us much at all. All we have that teams would want, is Pickard and maybe Aitto. If we even considered moving Mac, Dutch, Landy, ROR or PAP I would be pretty pissed off. Stastny is huge to us this year, moving him would be a mistake.
We don't have the pieces to make a move for a good defenceman.Even with whole new management, seems like this organization is just blind and wont see the inevitable.
Do they really think they can compete with all the top teams in west with that depleted blue line?
I'm afraid they have been fooled by the hot start and the 14-4 record. They need to realize that there is plenty of time left in the season to miss the playoffs again.
I just hope they do something soon to prevent the falling in standings because this team can't afford to fall behind and play catch up the rest of the way. They wont make it. Only 1 point ahead of the 4th place in division.

1st rounder and 2nd rounder and prospect maybe.
2 1st rounders can get you a top 4 d-man
It sounds like Benoit is only out the one game, so there is that.
I just can't spend every day hoping for a miracle trade. Like it or not this is the hand we are dealt. Let's see what happens or if anyone gets called up. If a trade happens then fine but I also am not happy with the idea of moving a core piece.
I'm still not thrilled with the idea of dumping first rounders. There is a reason why nobody in Lake Erie is good enough to get called up. Orgazinational depth isn't going to materialize out of thin air.
