It’s not a bad deal for the Avs. But I’m pretty unsure RyJo is what they need at 2C. They’d be far better off with Backlund (and even better off with Lindholm). In fact, I’d swing a deals for them for RyJo+ in exchange for Backlund or Lindy. It would give the Avs a real shot at a cup, it would give Calgary a centre for a couple years a medium cost while they retool and acclimatize the kids.
