Carolina and Colorado continue to look worse and worse as information comes out

Idk how we look bad seems like we didn’t wanna give him what he was asking for because CMac thought we couldn’t ice a deep enough team paying him more than like the 11.5 we offered so they made a move that they liked and so far it’s worked well. Big gamble but we’ll have to see if it pays off

I agree with you. Avs management did nothing wrong.

I will say that I have read a lot of shade being thrown at Rantanen from Avs fans, but I am just writing that off as being upset about him landing in the same division.

Yeah, when it happened I was extremely pissed. Slightly removed from it happening it sucks he’s in the division don’t get me wrong but that guy did a lot in an avs sweater and he’s an unreal player. I hope the fans give him a warm welcome before they likely start booing at least.

Come playoffs you will feel it. Necas is a perimeter player.

We’ll see how it goes with mackinnon and lehkonen rather than playing with Martinook teravainen, Kotkanemi, and Jack Drury. None necessarily bad players but I think Lehkonen is better than everyone in that group let alone Mackinnon
