Are the Avs the sleeper team nobody is talking about?? We're still trying to work a little trade magic but if nothing else comes through then this is how we'll be opening the season. It's definitely the strongest Avs team in years, which isn't really saying much since we haven't made the playoffs in 7 seasons lol! But I do think we have a good chance to mix it up in the playoffs with the best of 'em! There's a nice combo of PA-SC-CK-DF mixed around, we don't have any shiny 80+ SC guys but 10 of 12 forwards have SC 70+ (Including: 77x2, 76, 75x2), and we also have another goalie trade that has been completed and will be posted soon. It will be nice to finally not suck! Line 1:Ladd (78CK-75SC-70DF) | Galchenyuk (70PA-77SC) | Zuccarello (75PA-75SC) |
Line 2:Eriksson (73PA-77SC-74DF) | MacKinnon (74PA-73SC) | Ryan (74CK-74PA-72SC) |
Line 3:Huberdeau (77PA-72SC) | Nelson (75SC) | Hansen (76SC-74DF) |
Line 4:Kreider (82CK-72SC) | Gaustad (79CK-72DF) | Jooris (71DF) |
Extras:D-Pairing 1:Karlsson (89PA-74DF) | Jones (71CK-70PA-72DF) |
D-Pairing 2:Doughty (74CK-76PA-80DF) | Coburn (76CK-77DF) |
D-Pairing 3:Gudas (88CK-75DF) | Schenn (87CK-73DF) |
Extras:McQuaid (81CK-76DF) | Jackman (74CK-70DF) |

And the top half of that D just happens to be supreme studs, with a nice complimentary bottom 3! Super deep squad you've assembled, Jon, and a cool, young core. Nice indeed.

Nice to see the Aves back in the thick of things! Elite defence, and I have a feeling Seth Jones may join the 70+ OV rank next year. Very deep on forward too.

That's a pretty deep roster! The west is looking tough to play in this year
