No way Colorado does that

Avs would never do that unless the first was going the other way! And maybe not even then!

That would be a horrific one sided trade. Byram himself as a 22 yo RFA defenseman is worth more than lindholm for 20 games

No way no how. You could take out Byram and I still wouldn't do it, mainly because the premise of Colorado re-signing Lindholm is deeply flawed. Unless he's taking under 6M per year, they'd need to blow up their roster to keep him.

Absolutely not. Awful deal for the Avs.

The Avs can't re-sign lindholm based on what he wants. So no.

Only way lindholm would fit if He resigned is landeskog stays on LTIR and byram and johansen get traded.

Bleacher report has some interesting trade but would you pull it off if they did like a trade and extension type deal without blowing up the roster.

Hard no

No. Byram would have to come out, and they'd also need to take Johansen.

If that happened, and they magically announced that the cap was going to be like 92 million or something next year, then let's go. Otherwise it's a no.

As Calgary, I would accept.

I don't see the AVs doing that because they have serious cap issues to resign him as their 2C

okay, but the avs aren't doing this trade at the TDL then, bc they don't know if landeskog will come back or not, and byram is part of the trade in the first place. this is confusing logic.

and lindholm reportedly want more than $8mil. avs can find a younger, better 2C for byram at a lower cap hit imo

Yeah, I don't see COL doing that. I don't see COL trading Byram for Lindholm 1 for 1. If COL was looking to trade Byram for a Center, then they would go after guys like Eriksson Ek.

Yeah I know it's wierd. Bleacher reported that as a hypothetical trade

Flames win the lottery!

Whoever at Bleacher Report proposed that trade should never be allowed to propose any sort of trade ever again; that is one of the most lopsided trades I've ever seen seriously proposed and there have been some beauties around these parts.

Absolute hard pass from the Avs. Calgary takes that and runs away laughing with glee!
