Duchene

You berate my trade having fun on this site and you expect the Ducks to give up all that for Duchene? Wow, that explains your arogance and negative comments. And just in case you forgot, this site osnt real, its for fun.

Doesn't meet what Sakic is looking for, no established Dman involved in the trade. Sakic reportedly stipulated a young established D plus a 1st plus. Whether you like it or not, or agree with Sakic's valuation of Duchene or not that's what he's supposedly looking for. That may have altered somewhat after acquiring Nemeth but I doubt it.

Well would Colorado want Vatanen? If not there probably isn’t a fit.

It would be more likely but again probably wouldn't work unless they see him as a third pair stop gap for a few seasons or plan to move Barrie (or EJ but that's even less likely than Barrie). I don't see the Ducks as a good trading partner for the Avs (in this scenario) and I'd agree there probably isn't a fit, but that's only in my opinion of course.

I had read that Sakic was may also be looking into young D Prospects and Larsson is NHL ready but is behind a very deep blue line and doesn't require to have to go through waivers.
