We overpay to a degree here for sure but Duchene is a consistent scorer good for anywhere between 50 - 70 points having reached both of those totals twice already. Gives the Avs a lesser replacment pointwise but a reliable two-way center in Backs, defensive help that they are seeking as well as a good forward prospect which is why the 2nd rounder isnt a first.
We roll with this as our top 6
Gaudreau - Monahan - Hudler
Bennett - Duchene - Frolik
He definitely is an interesting player to target.

I really can't see a scenario where Duchene is traded and there's not a 1st round pick going to Colorado. They would want quality over quantity so I don't think your deal would be what they would want. I think you're looking at 1st+Poirier at the minimum.
