I can't see them wanting him but if they took him to help make the money work, they'd probably want something really good, like Barron. To me, not worth it to give them something like that since there are other guys out there who could shore up the bottom six at a cheaper price.

Yeah and then we're back to 'absolutely not for a 34 yr old rental'.

Yeah I never said the Avs would go for him. I said that offer likely gets beat. 23 1st and Kaut isn’t disrespectful but its not exactly a knockout offer

Knowing guys like Hertl, Miller and Pavelski are also on the market the shortage of cap space, I’m not convinced that anybody is in a rush to flush top picks and prospects for guys that are pure rentals.

Yeah maybe not. Pressure does ratchet up though and it only takes one GM. Foligno netted a 1st and he’s a far cry from any of those guys. That said, I agree that it’s unlikely anyone moves a top tier prospect. It’ll be interesting.
