Colorado easily accepts this trade.
We need a top 6 scoring forward and Boeser fits the bill perfectly. Jost and Zadorov are decent players but they are certainly available in a trade package to get a top 6 forward. Avs need to move a LHD once Byram makes the team, so Zadorov is the most available player on the roster. As for the picks I would be happy to include them if it got us a top 6 forward with the upside Boeser has.
Regarding Motte and 6th, not sure what purpose there is in including them... I don't think they're needed in the trade, unless there's cap or roster space reasons why Vancouver wants to include a minor player/salary.
Overall I'm not sure why Vancouver would be offering this trade though. It doesn't seem like a very good trade from Vancouver's perspective; in fact it seems downright terrible. Unless there's something about Boeser that I've missed... Is there any reason why Vancouver would want to trade their best young winger?
Whatever the case I think the minimum that Vancouver would ask for if they were to trade Boeser would be a young RHD, as that's clearly one of their biggest needs. A good goalie or goalie prospect would probably be a secondary ask as well. As such if you're trading with Colorado it's likely that the ask would start with Timmins, 2020 1st, and Werner/Annunen/Francouz (although Francouz just signed a new 2 year contract so it seems unlikely that he's going anywhere). I'd also expect serious requests for Newhook to be included but Sakic isn't going to budge on that one.
