If I wanted a young defenceman in exchange for Duchene I'd probably want one thats going to get to ride out the next couple years of Colorado's crippling ineptitude in the AHL rather than souring them by making them experience first-hand up close and personal.

I just thought that was what the Avs wanted / needed right now. Giving up a core piece of their offense to bolster an area of immediate need. The Avs defense is weak right now is it not? I figured they would want contributions right from the start of the season from young defensemen.
