Donthe Avs want to tear it down completely? I don't believe that has been stated anywhere. They are in a similar spot as the Oilers as they are in desperate need for a Dman but in their case they need a LHD since they have Barrie and Johnson.
The question you should have been asking instead of trying to prove Larsson is better than Brodie is disputing the price of a top Dman. Chia got screwed on the Hall trade but rewind 1 year Treliving scored Hamilton for a fraction of the cost the Oil paid for Larsson.

I dont know how many ways or how many times I can say it before you will stop trying to argue something that isnt there...
Im not saying Larsson is better than Brodie. Not once.
Is Brodie more offensively gifted than Larsson? Absolutely.
Is Larsson more defensively gifted than Brodie? Absolutely.
Lets leave it at that.
The cost that was to acquire Hamilton who wanted out of Boston and the cost for NJ to acquire Hall who fell out of favor in Edm cant really be compared can they? Two completely different situations.
In saying that, the only constant is Chia..
So when saying that Hall/Larsson are comparable to what Sakic would get for Landeskog is completely ludicrous.
So lets say Landeskog>Hall and Brodie >Larsson... so that means Brodie should get you Landeskog? No..
Again, I have been saying it since the very start... these situations have nothing to do with each other and the Hall trade is certainly not the precedent.
So for someone to surmise that Brodie gets you Landeskog its such a complete fallacy.
And this is what you have been doing.
