Avs fans Saad to see him go 

 

Last year might have been their best shot to win, I dunno if they'll be the same juggernaut 

Still pretty good but lost key players for sure.

 

I don’t know if STL is going in the right direction. Feels like they might need to move on from veterans and look for younger guys again.

Seems like they're pushing back the inevitable rebuild that began when they lost Petro

 

It's a good thing they got a cup out of it

Would have been a nice fit here if we elected to wait on Pearson (assuming we were an option for Saad, of course).

That's the problem... a lot of people assume we are options for a lot of these players. Too many people living in the EA sports universe.

Well we didn't exactly give ourselves a shot, either, because of how "important" it was to lock up Pearson. Left side was full after that.

Even if we had the option I would take Pearson's contract. 

 

Same age.

Same position.

Same height.

Both good 2 way players.

Both cup Champs.

 

Over the last 2 seasons...

Pearson 63 points (.525ppg)

Saad 57 points (.558ppg)

 

Pearson 3.25mil over 3 years

Saad 4.5mil over 5 years

 

You should thank Benning.

Colorado is imploding before our eyes. Their window has been evaporated almost before it began. 

Byram, Newhook, Jost. BC boys to the rescue!

I just prefer Saad as a player.

 

Also the numbers flip if you take the last 3 seasons, as is common practice these days when looking back at a player's numbers. ;)

 

e/ Saad is also coming off a strong playoffs.
