If I were the Avalanche, the only way I'd think about getting rid of O'Reilly would be to make a deal with Tampa involving ROR and Drouin.

ROR has hardly played Center this past year. He's only effective when he's on Duchene's wing. Whenever they took him away from Duchene he disappeared.

According to this Keith Yandle has been n the trading block for 4 years..

And on a more obvious note,

Danny Briere is the league's best playoff performer.

I have no doubts that Marleau is in play.....but why on God's green a Earth would he trade Marleau for a washed up, expensive flash in the pan? Lol

They have two goalies under contract who are better and cheaper than Ward. DWil makes that trade and he better have his walking papers soon after. This trade makes less than zero sense from the Sharks perspective.

If anything, I could imagine the Sharks looking at Justin Faulk.

I wouldnt. I think ROR is a really good player but is over rated by many. He's a great complimentary player but doesn't drive the bus.

Not the Ducks. Anaheim is never in on any player ever. Not enough hits generated. Ek never even posted the Ducks signing Clayton Stoner.

ROR is a franchise player. The sky is the limit for this guy IMO.

If anyone is untouchable on the canes roster Faulk is it. My guess is the reason Cam is being involved in the trade is for the money to work. There are a lot of reasons this wouldn't work Francis already said he was going into the season with both goalies, I can't imagine Cam has great trade value, and like you said why would the sharks want him(except he is a proven playoff performer, 2009/2006). The only way this works is Marleau and a backup goalie for Cam plus prospects picks and maybe a roster player(bottom pairing dman or an over slotted wing). Still don't see it working.

You're one of the very few Avs fans that would say this....

Most including their managment say he slots in behind Landy, Mac and Duchene. Not a franchise player at all.

According to brain trust at THN, leafs should throw an offer sheet at PK and let Habs match. They didn't explain how Leafs could make the $'s work

Wrong. I know plenty of Avs fans who agree. Yeah, his offensive skill is behind all of those players, no question. But his 200ft game is by far the best on the team. Quickly becoming one of the best in that category league wide.
