They traded some of their prospects to patch holes in their lineups The point is that its almost impossible to do both... keep filling the prospect pool so it stays strong while also contending.

I could see a third and a conditional pick (depending on individual production/team playoff success) but the optics are different with Kovalchuk than anyone else given that he was available for free six weeks ago. From Friedman's 31 Thoughts: Quote 13. There’ve been a lot of rumours about Max Domi, but I did have one source call them “Fake News.” (The source wasn’t Donald Trump.)

I know values change but Doug Armstrong can justify paying the higher price tag with the 50% retention. Had Buffalo done that, they would have gotten more than a 4th initially. Kovalchuk being a free agent (and starting to slow down lately) is going to linger. I hope I'm wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bergevin just got a 2nd for scandella. If he gets Bergevin a 2nd, then kovalchuk gets him a 1st.

EMELINATOR Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Colorado has interest in Tatar according to Avs beat writer. Not sure how much steam this has but would love Conor Timmins + in return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Also reports saying MB won't move tatar or petry because he wants to be in the hunt for playoffs next year Hopefully that is not the case Avs gruebauer is also out long term Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatar is also mentioned here but Kiszla is more of a columnist than a beat reporter. A request to everyone - please post the links as to where you're finding reports from. It makes it easier for everyone to see rather than having to go dig it up themselves if they want to find out where it's coming from.

Commandant Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Based on what Coleman got.... (and yes, his contract is 1.8 per year)... if the Habs retain 50% on Tatar, you have to be able to get at least the same package. Tatar is just a much better player than Coleman. And yes that includes the PK prowess of Coleman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habsfan89 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 If Bergevin can't get a 1st for kovalchuk, I will package the 2nd round pick we just got from St.Louis along with kovalchuk for a 1st round pick coming back to us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youre probably better off waiting to the draft to trade 2 2mds for a first. Then you only move up if the guy you like is available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they wait tell the draft Kovalchuk value becomes useless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
