In all truth, there is nothing wrong with the Colorado Avalanche ensuring that they get the best possible return on players like Matt Duchene and Gabe Landeskog.
However, if they’re overvaluing players like Jarome Iginla, Blake Comeau, John Mitchell and Fedor Tyutin ahead of the deadline, then there is definitely an issue with that.
You just have to wonder why the Avs haven’t made a deal surrounding one of their rental players yet. Is their asking price for any of them just too high for teams to consider?
Or, are they waiting until right up next to deadline to make a move?
