Quoting: bdb
Fair enough, my thinking was Manson for 1 year = 2nd + Helleson (mid 2nd) and Myers 2 years = 2 2nds for the extra year. Myers is better offensively and similar defensively.
Solid thinking in principle, but the Avs were pushing for a cup, and Mansons AAV to COL was 2,050,000, as opposed to Myers making 3x that
The Ducks are rebuilding, and yes they could use a RD, but unless they are being given at least a second to take on the Myers deal I dont see it happening
Subban, Manson, Braun, Gudbranson, Rutta, Lyubushkin (All FAs)
Holl, Bear, im sure theres more through trade (Cheaper and potential dumps we would be paid to take)
All could fill that spot, Drysdale and Shattenkirk will play the top two pairs next season, paying 2 seconds for a 6M at that point 3rd pairing player doesnt make much sense, and it makes even less sense when you consider it helps out a division rivals cap situation
