We really need to make a push for Duchene.
I wonder if we could build something around Brassard.
Brassard + Brown + 2nd
Brassard + Chlapik + 1st
Regardless, even if thats not enough and White has to be on the table, having Duchene, Turris, Pageau and Thompson down the middle would be super well balanced. We have the pieces to get this done, and already have one foot in the pool with the win-now mentality, so PD should just bite the bullet and take the plunge.
That group is good enough down the middle to win a cup imo. And until we make a move like this, or say for a guy like Johnny T., then we never going to be a legit contender.

That's silliness. Why would Brassard want to go to Colorado and why would they want him when they're rebuilding?
Because they'd get a prospect like Logan Brown and a pick to start their rebuild while getting an adequate replacement for Duchene for now and at the same time that doesn't cost much. They could easily flip Brassard to a contending team in a couple years at the deadline for a solid prospect or a 1rst rounder.
Brassard has a 8 team NTC, who knows who he has on there?? For all we know that list was made years ago.. I would actually doubt that the Avs are on his list. I'm no entirely sure how this works, if he can change his list or not. You may be right though, if he can do his NTC 8 team list again today the Avs would most likely be on there.

Matt Duchene is absolutely NOT the guy we should sell the farm and more for.
John Tavares is.

Imagine a PP of:
Stone-Tavares-Hoffman
Karlsson-Chabot
LOL... A man can dream.
You can then have guys like Turris, White, Ryan, MacArthur, Dzingel, Ceci, Phaneuf, etc. on the 2nd unit.
Is it that silly? To me, it is more of a trade around Logan Brown rather than Brassard.
To key piece of that tradd is Brown, if they are indeed rebuilding.
Brassard would be sell as the quality veteran who is going to help the young gun to become better pros.
Than add what you need.
Listen, i don't think it would work anyway but i don't think it is a out of the field type of proposal.
Damn really wanted Kelly to retire a sen
What hockey player doesn't care if they win a cup? Isn't that the goal?
Not that I foresee Karlsson leaving but I would be shocked if he wanted to stay on a team that didn't continue to be competitive.
That's the goal for sure, but is there honestly a chance we get a cup during the Melnyk Era? Not bloody likely.
