Did Reaves clear waivers? Panthers might as well pick him up, too.

I'm waiting for the playoffs to start.

Gross that Rantanen ended up with the Stars. Hope he sucks there as bad as he has in Carolina.

Neat that EJ is back in Colorado, though I don't expect much from him. Great for the locker room at a minimum, though.

Avs pushing all their chips in. Picking up really solid pieces, future be damned. And if we get another Cup, I'm honestly fine with that. Nate turns 30 before the start of next season. A window that seemed like it was closing quickly is now open again. And Mittelstadt seems like a solid dude, but you've gotta bring more to the table as a 2C than he was bringing.

I've seen mixed reviews on the Coyle trade. Mittelstadt looked good after the trade, but of course has dropped off and they needed to fix 2C... some are saying Coyle's dropped off, too, and it could have been straight up player for player, but whatever.

Glad they made multiple moves at center, really.

Gonna be fun to watch the Avs and Dallas go at it next week and possibly in the playoffs. Both loaded up, and you've got the Mikko dynamic.

Ton of pressure on the Avs from here on. They sold some big future assets and they're still only a wildcard team with ~ 20 games left. Not even a lock to make the playoffs yet. Not making a deep run to at least the conference finals would be terrible. With what they gave up, they need to win it all.

They're +900 to win the Cup after these trades. Tempting.

Another solid game and another 7 goals for the Avalanche.

Wonder if MacKinnon is the first player to ever get his 1000th point twice in the same game.

You ever wonder how these goalies get a stop? It just takes the smallest crease to score a goal. That always mesmerizes me when watching an NHL game.
