The Avs dont' need to get better now, you just said that even if they improve they're still garbage. They need to build a winner not try to "win now" (I know you're not saying they need to win now but improving now is pretty much the same).

The avs are the oilers of a few years ago, they either need to win a lottery and get a star or cut bait with a lot of their current guys and start from scratch.

Stajan to the pens for something, that something + a bunch of prospects and maybe even Kulak to the avs for Duchene
we'd be lucky to get a 3rd round pick for Stajan imo ... i'd do a second right now if that was offered.

but even that 2nd plus a couple of prospects isn't likely to get you Duschene if the rumors are true and Sakic already turned down a 1st and a Hamonic for him.
