This Brandon Saad guy with the Colorado Avalanche seems to be pretty good at hockey, and that shouldn’t come as a surprise to fans of the Chicago Blackhawks.

The Chicago Blackhawks traded Brandon Saad to the Colorado Avalanche this past off-season for Nikita Zadorov. The trade involved a few other guys on each side but Zadorov for Saad was basically the package.

Zadorov and the Blackhawks are in the off-season now debating whether or not to extend the partnership between the two, while Saad is on a deep playoff run having scored five goals in five games with the Avalanche in the postseason.
