Mike_V posted:Why are the Avs going for it this year? Because the Avs have a bad front office. That's the real answer. No wit or snark. They are poorly run.

Bleakley is a very good prospect but the Avs haven't signed him to an ELC. He would have to re-enter the draft. I guess that made him expendable and I would expect the Coyotes to sign him soon.

That's an absurd return even if the Avs were absolutely convinced they could re-sign Boedker to a reasonable deal.

Colorado is like a good head coach away from being halfway decent. Yeah they still need a defense but Roy is like the worst coach in the league now that Oates and Carlyle are out of a job.

The Dirty Burger posted:Seriously, they aren't really contenders, their window hasn't really even started yet. People are posting graphy charts on twitter now and they suggest that Boedker is an active downgrade from Tanguay. The Avs never disappoint.

I would not call Bleakley a very good prospect. He'll be a checker at best in the NHL. If he'd been a 3rd round pick no one would think twice about him. He got stripped of his captaincy with Red Deer this year and has looked listless and dull ever since.

don "the don" maloney fleeces another team. yotes swap rentals and get a prospect and kind of a throw-in

I think he's going to be a good bottom six player in the NHL if he figures his poo poo out, and that's valuable.

Even assuming Boedker was good (which it appears he isn't), why are the Avs trading for a winger? Their wingers seem perfectly fine and they seem to be scoring enough goals.

I could have sworn Alex Tanguay retired like five years ago.

Offensively he's pretty crappy for a 20 year old in the WHL, basically he was drafted for his leadership and intangibles and it seems he doesn't even have those. If I was a betting man I say he doesn't crack 100 games in the NHL.

Yea I didn't understand this deal either, they need help on D mostly. The TSN guys were pointing out the same thing.

He got stripped of his captaincy with Red Deer this year and has looked listless and dull ever since. Because he's a first, Arizona can let him walk and get a compensatory pick. He's also still a cost being paid by Colorado to downgrade from Tanguay to Boedker.

Reverend Sub-Zero posted:https://twitter.com/MimicoHero/status/704371192162066433 boedker's been kinda misused this year. he's been stuck with a snakebit vermette and whoever else. those charts are also over a 3? year period and the yotes were godawful last year. this does seem like a weird trade for the avs though, i guess they are assuming boedker gets way better when you play him with duchene and whoever else

Just correcting the notion that Bleackley was anything more than a 3rd rate prospect.
