I don't know...trading the 26 year old with more points for the 33 year old with fewer points and adding a 2nd round picks is a weird move.
Avs have traded Mittelstadt (2x $5.75), 1st, 2nd, 3rd and Ritchie and added 33 year old Coyle (1 year at $5.25M after this) and 33 year old Nelson (UFA)...maybe it pays off this year but that's brutal long term asset management IMO.
