Why not bring back Trenin but give him length, pay him for 5 years which most teams won’t and give him 1.9

[@nathanmcclarren4432]

21:35 just promote sam malinski! Defense solved. Lets not overthink this.

ullmark said he wants to stay east

[@teflondon2891]

That’s what Bourque said too. Ultimately time will tell

Buy out Girard, drop Middelstadt, and keep Drouin.

[@kaiolson8083]

But out Girard? He was fantastic this year. Clearly their third best defenseman, a key PK contributor, has the skating needed to keep up with CO and is on a deal drastically lower than what he’d get on open market. Paying to not have a good player is just beyond stupid. Mittelstadt is also a cost controlled asset since he’s an RFA. You can’t have 20 superstars. You need some good and affordable players. Girard and Mitt are both of those.

[@pphsports3748]

@@kaiolson8083 lol I stopped reading when you said Girard was less than market value. Sam scores five goals a year, and is porous defensively. He's not worth 5 million, and never will be. He has a no trade clause, which is why we should get him off our salary cap. And middelstadt will negotiate 6-7 mill a year, which is way more than he's worth We won alot of games down the stretch including the playoffs, none of which was because of h. Drouin fit perfectly in our system though.

Fire McFarland- get a legit “hockey guy “ as a GM. His tenure has been horrible and all his signings have not panned out.

[@pphsports3748]

Thank you so much for saying this. I've been saying this since last year. Just about every movr hes made has been trash, and it won't be much longer until we miss the playoffs. Sakic built this team well, and MacFarland is tearing it down. If he signs middelstadt.and drops droiun, I'll be just about done with the team until they get rid of him.

[@nickgreenfield8155]

Huh? I don't know how you guys watch this season and then go back to McFarland being the reason we were not successful. Can't blame him for Val disappearing, has nothing to do with his actions neither does Gabe landeskog kneecap. What are you guys talking about? Explain how he's torn this team down please

This has got to be a joke, right?

[@pphsports3748]

@@em0rgue433Drouin never priced himself out. This guy is a moron. They havent even begun negotiating yet. I guarantee you Middelstadt negotiates more money on Colorado than Drouin does on another team.
