The Colorado Avalanche have been busy-ish. They recently made a good contract proposal to defenseman Tyson Barrie to keep him with the team long-term. They’re also in negotiations with center Nathan MacKinnon. The team has made qualifying offers to Duncan Siemens, Mikhail Grigorenko and Calvin Pickard.
In other words, the Avs have been conducting some housekeeping.
However, apparently there were a couple big names available on the trade market, and Colorado didn’t cash in on either one.
P.K. Subban
Despite being an elite offensive defenseman, P.K. Subban has been the subject of major trade rumors recently.
