Colorado in position to make a big move(s).

How injuries and good decisions cap wise, have put Colorado in place to improve Goaltending, Defense and jump start Milan Hejduk’s seasonAs far a Colorado goes, all of these Hejduk and Tanguay rumors crack me up… Tanguay is on fire this year. For Hejduk, he only has 11 goals this year, which is poor by his standards to say the least, but this only strengthen the Aebisher rumors in my opinion…

Since the Avs did not pick up the options on Blake and Sakic they freed up 750,000$ in cap space (which is the only reason they didn’t pick up those options btw, for all you people I’ve heard talking about Blake trade rumors) and the injury to Konowalchuk freed up another 1.9 mil… so the Avs are sitting with 2.65 mil in space… if you trade Aebisher and Boughner (Boughner hasn’t contributed jack crap this season) that would give you 2.85 mil more in space. The Avs would then have 5.5 in space…

Give 3.2 of that back to Luongo (if they indeed are still after him) and the Avs would have 2.3 mil to get a player who compliments Hejduk…

That’s the main problem on the Avs this season and more notably Hejduk, “too many chiefs, not enough Indians”… Tanguay & Hejduk were lighting it up with Forsberg last season, partly because Forsberg commands so much attention from other teams which freed up Hejduk and Tanguay on the ice, and Forsberg is just an awesome setup man…

Look through the roster… Hejduk, Tanguay, Sakic & Svatos are all finishers… the real reason Svatos is having such an awesome year is Tuergeon is setting him up 4 or 5 times a night… contrast that to the first line, nothing but finishers and only 1 of them is really performing up to their standards, Tanguay.

I’d take that extra space and go for a guy who commands attention in front of the net & who can pass and that will make Hejduk is a way different player…

And then again Colorado doesn’t need to much more scoring anyway, they need more D, but all of what I just said would help the Avs top scorers get back in form I think.

Defensively they need a guy to compliment Blake… Liles and Blake have been paired all season, and Liles coast to coast style has hurt Blake’s numbers and ever other combo they have tried hasn’t meshed very well at all… Look for Vannanen or Clark to go on the move and I believe Brunette may come as part of a package to bring another solid D man like Skrastins to Colorado for cheap.

I don’t normally like to speculate like this, but I know all of the cap #’s are right, and alot of the moves I mentioned make sense… But man I feel like a Toronto fan all of a sudden.
