Vanek for Stastny straight up?
- hubie

Eff no. Vanek is 5x the player IMO, and they both have 1 year left

so what if tthey pick Mackinnon and trade Duchene for that 2nd overall? could that work? they get em both
- Habitants98


Duchene was very good for them this past year.. and he even gave them a decent bridge contract and didn't demand the world like ROR did... I think they need to keep Duchene.

Landeskog - MacK - Drouin

that would be scary as hell...

McGinn - ROR - Parenteau
Jones - Stastny - Mitchell

I could be wrong but its only a couple years in age difference? 27&29 I believe. I would be all in if PS was 23, I would love to upgrade the C position.
- leonwaldo420


correct 27 &29 but with the beating vanek has taken his body is more of a 32 year old ( fishing fishing did I catch?)

Id like a roster shake up and we need a center and hes better two way than anythign we have which would move cody to the second line

any center doesn't matter if they are overpaid and one year from UFA

I guess I could get on board but he has a 6+ mil cap hit and he will be a UFA next season. Kinda getting into the same boat as we are with Vanek. I would feel more comfortable trading them Miller for PS + a little.

Vanek- last 2 seasons 116 gp 102 pts .87ppg
Statsny- 119 gp 77 pts .64 PPG

IMO Hodgson and Ennis are just as good and younger than Stastny. We'd be moving a first line winger for a 2nd or 3rd line center

hhmm true enough it'd be tough to trade him at this point but the risk vs reward this might be the only time it could be worth it, but you're right its a stretch

I dont want Stastny. Seriously...useless. If we lose Vanek and Miller and acquire Stastny and dont move up with any of these trades I think I will step down as a fan for the first time ever. I cant stand Stastny...

I feel Sakic just throwing a smokescreen cause everyone knows theyll take jones and was calling on florida. helps them leverage their own pick via trade

No point whatsoever in adding Statsny at this point. He's got 1 year left, unless we plan on making a run next season in which case you don't trade Vanek anyways

Vanek is a game changer. It's only for a handful of games at a time but Statsny is a serious downgrade from Vanek. We lose that trade big time even if both had long term deals

Stastny has no NTC/NMC.

Vanek+ for Stastny+ as a framework of a deal make sense. It isn't ideal but it does make sense.


It also gives you the best center available come the trade deadline to gain more future assets.

Off the top of my head If Avs take MacKinnon. . .

Vanek and a 2nd in 2014 for Stastny and Mcginn.

Ennis+Sekera+Adam+3rd in 2014 for Bobby Ryan

Miller(30% retain) for Heatley+Clutterbuck+Prospect+pick

2nd in 2013 and 2014 for Jamie Oleksiak

Stafford for a prospect/pick


Ryan-Stastny-Heatley
McGinn-Hodgson-Clutterbuck
Ott-Grigorenko-Leino
Kaleta-Porter-Tropp
Gerbe/Scott/Flynn

Myers-Ehrhoff
Pysyk-Weber
Oleksiak-Mcnabb/Ruhwedel/Sulzer
Pardy

I missed the part where Colorado did better than us over the last few years with Statsny.... He has done nothing significant in years.
