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.

I don't think they like Mittelstadt at all.

To me they become the team to beat in the conference, but they still have to get through the tougher division.

I got Dallas as the team to beat now.

It's a Zellers market.

Came for this content and just thought I would add that it's clear that Zellers was a Target for Boston.

That Bowen Byram trade tree looks pretty bad right about now.
