Well honestly the window is sort of closing. I mean look at the Bruins. The bruins are fucked for years. Trade them when they still have life in their legs and start putting Draft pics in the back pocket.
The Avs are already fielding too many AHLers. To win a cup the need balanced scoring, depth, and consistent contributions from other than the top line. They were going to lose Mikko. Someone with pay him $13+M for 6-8 years. It's smart asset management but hard to lose a stud.
From what I heard, he was asking for at least $14M and wouldn't budge, so the Avs FO decided to move him now instead of losing him for nothing in free agency
he's asking for Draisaitl money? That's a bold move Cotton. Miko's an elite player, but I can name 10 who are better, two of whom play on his now former team.
Seen a couple people suggesting Landeskog back soon or making room for potential Crosby trade(tho would still be more work to be done if that’s what they’re going for)
