The ask from Colorado has been rumoured to be young, cost controlled d-man(men). Not wild to think our deepest position prospect-wise could be raided to acquire a player like Duchene. There's also high end prospects in Jankowski and Gillies not listed in my post either.
Yes COL would have to be getting a significant roster player back for Duchene. That's why it makes no sense. After dealing O'Reilly for two Russian prospects one of which they've already given up on they can't afford to deal one of their two franchise players for defencemen and goalie prospects. That's insane. How would they sell that to fans? Try to think about it from COL's perspective.
