I think there was a Canucks offer coming.

They could afford to give up the 1st and 3rd because the picks would be so late but chances are the Avs would match that offer because of that. Also I'm not sure O'Reilly would be thrilled to go there knowing that when Kessler comes back he would be 3rd on the depth chart while in Calgary he's guaranteed top line minutes.
