He hasn't figured it out yet that the Avs can't trade O'Reilly as of now , like you said here come the 10 blogs about Stastny.
- SABRES 89


Avs can trade O'Reilly 2 years after they matched the offer sheet which is next spring. Stastny is the guy to go though. With Mackinnon, Duchense and O'Reilly as your top 3 centers, that's a good mix.

Its 1 year. Depending on when the trade deadline is, there is a possibility the Avs would be able to move him then

How about a swap between Toronto and Colorado?

Phaneuf, Gunnarrsson and Colborne for Stastny, Barrie and a 2014 or 2015 2nd round draft pick


Phaneuf and Johnson as your top pairing with guys like Elliot, Siemens, Holos, Wilson and Bigras to fill out the remaining spots over time.

Phaneuf-Johnson
Gunnarsson/Elliot-Siemens
Elliot/Gunnarrsson-Wilson

Your 7 d-men in 3 years, sound nice?

Colborne could be used as a great 3rd line C in the future for you guys. Big and learning how to use his body.

I think the Leafs would spread out the amount of time between our 3 pairings, or trade Bozak for a dman who can play top 4 minutes? Who knows. With the amount of defensive prospect depth the Leafs have I can see us promoting from within.
Stastny gives us our top-6 center to go with Kadri and Barrie gives us more depth to work with (considering we lost our captain and #1 dman).

What say you Avs fans?

- optimus-reim


Holos has been gone for a while lol. That aside I think the Avs are looking at a more long term approach than Dion.

I still can't believe they traded him to us
Our "center" situation is actually in really good shape
I know majority opinion I that we need a "superstar" or at least a "#1"
But then I see names out there of guys we need to bring in...
Getzlaf, Stastny, etc

Does anyone realize that Hodgson, Grigorenko & Girgensons were all drafted HIGHER than those two?!
But for some reason the guys we have just cant develop into "great" players

Bunch of whiny "negative Nancy's" on this site
Booo hooo, "Darcy sucks!"

Know what REALLY sucks?
Their attitudes

Rant over...
For now

I dont see the relevance of draft position....yes a higher chance of success but there are many top centers in the NHL that have been drafted in the second round or more.

Grigorenko and Girgensons are nobodies right now. Until they do something in the NHL who knows not to mention Girgensons will probably not even play center.

Damn I swore I would never double post. We should set up poster line up:

dadeadhead- Jochfr- Homiedclown-

Homiedclown (much like Ovie)- cabin- keptupl8

Jvince11- Apple- Banana

Flyfreaky - Whipper

Gluckman - Jurco

Gunner/ Ryan - Gerbe75 (aka kid)

- Sabresordeath

Homie is good, but can't play on 2 lines. Apple and Banana refer to the same guy.

Defense is 100% up for grabs. Gerbe should be on the 2nd. The rest of the D listed are regulars for other teams. I'd give you Gunner a couple months ago, but since he's blogging for another team - he's a Penguin. So there's 7 positions up for grabs. 9 if you add 2 tenders.

I'd give one of the goalie spots to Rapperray. He's got Denis Lemieux written all over him.

Jeez... I didn't notice that the 4th line is missing too. Scrap this roster. Time for a rebuild. We don't want to win a Stanley Cup. We want to win Stanley Cups.
