Per NHL.com, Joe Sakic has said he’ll consider trading the first-round draft pick in this year’s NHL draft, which is to take place on June 26-27th.

Now, I am an avid Avs fan like the rest of you and it kills me to see Ryno go, but perhaps — if he is used properly — the Avs could come out on top here. All Avs fans know that the team could shore up their defense and I believe that the draft is the best place to do so.
