Let's give it a day or 2. The team likely partied late last night and are heading back to UMD today. I'd expect an announcement in the coming week.

Probably not an established one who is under team control for several more years and who is not badly flawed in some way, no.
I'd be at least a little surprised if Trocheck was available. Maybe it depends on how impressed they are with Borgstrom. If they think he is ready to take over, they might move Trocheck. Otherwise, I doubt it.
Cirelli might be a 2C. Would need solid scouting to confirm that.
Veleno certainly isn't yet, but may be fairly soon. We might have to take the risk in an unproven one like Veleno in order to get one for Trouba.

Yup, saw that earlier. I never put any weight on my viewing at the WJC because I didn't get to see much of him at all. Just a few shifts in one game.

I know. I was being mostly facetious. Didn't stop Makar from signing a contract literally the day after losing.
He was very good last night as was all of UMD. Samberg played a big role, is an every situation player with a ton of ice time. He and the whole UMD team were a pleasure to watch.
Of course Samberg isn't slated to play game 3 of the playoffs like Maker is. But agreed I'm also wanting to see him signed sooner rather than later.
Hopefully Makar plays. I don’t anticipate them to get past Calgary (he is not Bobby Orr, his addition won’t mean THAT much (not yet anyway)), so it’s a good way to make sure he has to be protected at the Expansions Draft.
Agreed, but when you look at the Avs roster they are so top heavy that they really aren't in any real danger of losing someone important in the ED.
They are definitely a one line team. Still, it’s a bonehead move to put Makar in the lineup, so, naturally, I hope that they do.
He plays quite a bit on both sides in the games I've watched, but probably fits best as a LD.
I read some comments by Avs fans and the reasoning seems to be getting him in now is like a cost of a rental with the price being you push the last current protected player off the list to strengthen this year's playoff run. When you look at their roster it doesn't seem like too steep of a price.
I don’t think he makes a difference. That’s the thing. We will see. I’m usually wrong.

It's okay Samberg will shut him down

Too bad it was pretty fun to watch our prospect in a National Championship game.

Thats too bad it was a fun game to watch although UMD were pretty dominant. It also gave me a chance to watch Cale Makar play which was a bonus.
A Samberg-Buff pairing seems to be match made in heaven. Buff communicates a lot on the ice which would help a young player get acclimated to the NHL game.
And Samberg is solid defensively, makes very good reads (at college level), and moves the puck very well, that would allow Buff to be more, “Buff-like”.
I’m still hopeful Trouba signs, though it’s not much of a hope at this point. Myers is a guy that I just wouldn’t want the Jets to commit to long term, with or without Trouba, but I think will be back.
Ideally:
Morrissey-Trouba
Samberg-Byfuglien
Chiarot-Niku
Poolman
More likely:
Morrissey-Myers
Samberg-Byfuglien
Beaulieu-Niku
Poolman
That D has me a bit worried for next year. I would welcome a FA or trade RHD, to replace Trouba and prevent a Myers signing.
