Eastside's Hockey Elite Collide

to DAL: Brandon Saad (64)

to COL: Eric Tangradi (76) + Kyle Chipchura (81) + Alexander Henriksson (80) + Alexander Khokhlachev (57) + Jake Dotchin (60)

Reasoning: Although I'm losing two quality defensive forwards in Tangradi and Chipchura, I'm still in a good position with having Caputi and Palmieri (not mentiong recently drafted two-way forwards in the making: Ryan MacInnis, Nikita Scherbak, Conner Bleackley and Arkhip Nekolenko) to play their roles and also Kurker and Jankowski will jump on the offence in the next season so I am fine with it and I am adding a really nice piece to my offence with Saad who could be great complement to Armia. Giving away prospects (Henriksson, Khokhlachev, Dotchin) wont hurt me as much as I already drafter much better players in this draft and others are on its way and my minor league team Texas is already pretty strong. Typical package deal. I am fitting the needs of the Avs and Avs are fitting my needs. Thanks for the deal and good luck.

Thanks for the deal Martin. I needed to add some depth, and for that it was required to move Saad. The players I am receiving aren't without their weaknesses, but they each bring their own elements to the team that I've been lacking (i.e. some defense). I get two guys who can step into the lineup immediately, and some other projects that can help fill out my AHL team while they develop. Thanks Martin!

Approved.

Please bump up Alexander Khokhlachev's CON back to 57.
