Aaron Musick: Avs skate to easy victory over Blue Jackets
Was it Rick Nash's last game?

Nice to see Hunwick scores when it matters, I jest he actually played well tonight and all areas, though we were playing Columbus.

Looking ahead to tomorrow, it would be nice if we could just get a point out of that game. We usually aren't very good on back-to-back nights though, so I'm not expecting much.

Nash isn't going anywhere. He'll ship out before the draft.

Only if CLB gets blown out of the water by a deal.

You know? Colborne, Kadri, Schenn, a first and and Gunarsson type deal. #OverpaymentIknow

Don't forget about Mason Raymond, though Columbus would probably have to give up Nash + for that.

Yeah Ballard and Raymond have too much upside. I know Robin Scherbotsky loves him so he has to be great.

On to Detroit.

Damn Stars.

I'd rather the Stars beat our divisonal rivals near us in the standings, considering we can't.

I'm just happy when there's not a three point game between a couple of the teams close to us, been far too many of those lately.

Why such low ice time for Duchene

He's still getting adjusted from being back from injury.

Id agree with you about adjusting from Injury but he played 17+ last game and only 12+ this game thats a big difference and you would think it was 12 then 17 not the other way around

my guess would be rest for tomorrows game against the red wings. . . its a huge game well everyone from here on out is huge

What is everyones take on the deadline?

See if we can upgrade our bottom 6/5-6 dmen by moving guys like McLeod, Porter, Kobasew, Hunwick, or O'Bryne?

I kind of hope they just stand pat, with Duchene getting his legs back, Downie looking like a great pick up, Jones getting hot, and now TJ back. That sounds like a pretty good deadline load up to me.

To be honest, the Brian Rolston waiver kind of intrigues me soley on leadership. Could that be a good pick up to help the kids stay on the right playoff bound track?

Aaron are you going to do a blog about what you think the Avs should do at the deadline?

Probably later tomorrow assuming they don't make a trade tomorrow. Problem is, I'm not sure what they should do. It's not a really clear picture.

Good on Hunwick for keeping such a positive attitude. Gotta respect that.
