How the Colorado Avalanche’s Cap Space and the St. Louis Blues’ Forward Depth Could Spark a Game-Changing Trade.
The Colorado Avalanche are looking to accrue cap space for the trade deadline
Corey Masisak of the Denver Post: The Colorado Avalanche made a decision this offseason to move off 31-year-old Valeri Nichushkin this offseason. He’s been a valuable member of their organization, but he hasn’t always been able to stay in the lineup – injuries and off-ice issues.
They aren’t going to be able to easily replace his offense and defense with one player. They signed 34-year-old Jaden Schwartz at $3.25 million per for three years, but his offense likely isn’t going to match Nichushkin’s.
