The Colorado Avalanche made some big changes to the roster making six trades in total over the last week leading up to the NHL trade deadline. The impact of those moves won’t be truly known until the postseason and beyond but our initial reactions are below.
Which trade did you like the most?
Evan: I absolutely love the Ryan Johansen for Sean Walker move. I was hesitant at first after seeing it was only for a first-round pick to start, but the fact the Avs got someone to take on the Johansen contract, plus didn’t retain any salary on it, and got a good defenseman in return was solid business to reclaim what they could from a failed project.
