The Colorado Avalanche announced they were done picking up free agents during Free Agency Frenzy… then promptly pulled the trigger on a big trade. They sent longtime offensive defenseman Tyson Barrie and forward Alexander Kerfoot to Toronto for Nazem Kadri and Calle Rosen. The two teams also exchanged picks for next year.
It was tough saying goodbye to our guys, especially Tyson Barrie. I don’t know who I’m going to razz on so regularly. However, it seems Colorado got at least one very good player back — and that player is Nazem Kadri.
