Are we sure he'll beat Budaj for the job? To be fair, Thomas wouldn't be bad for Lake Erie. Deserves some consideration.
Well if dealing Liles, We need Thomas cap to remain above the cap floor, We could run a trio so the 10 games Anderson doesn't play can be a 5/5 split between Thomas and Budaj.
omg such a bad deal for colorado , obviousley , a boston fan made this . Craig anderson is wau better than thomas . like **** you , colorado is smart with cap , so dont go thinking your ****** team is gonna dump your terrible contract's on colorado , you understand *****es , like **** , you ****ed your cap up , so deal with it . Get this bruin's fans , your ****ed with thomas , no one want's a back up for 5 million for like 4 years left or 3 . so deal with it . it's your fault biaatch .
Avs are set in goal with Andy and Budaj. They won't ever trade for Thomas. And then you can argue until you are blue in the face about how good a goalie Thomas is.
Interest for an injury plagued Ference with a real bad contract should also be extremely low from the Avs.
I don't really see how Bruins and Avs make for good trading partners if the objective is to dump salary from the Bruins.
Now I don't want to sound entirely negative. I want to thank OP for finding it in his heart to not include Ryder in the proposal.
Has anyone suggested Ryder for Liles in this thread?
It seems like Colorado has a lot of dmen. And while Ryder isn't really a $4m player, he should still be able to get you 20+ in a contract year. Plus, Ryder's deal is up in a year so you're out from under the Liles contract a year early.

I don't know why you have that impression.
Liles
Hannan
Foote
Quincey
Cumiskey
Wilson
I'd be surprised if Foote lasts a whole season and the latter two will be sophomores with all that implies. And it is not like they were extremely consistent last year to start with. If anything, Avs should be looking to add an experienced defender (no, not Ference or Redden) than trade one.
I no longer want to punch the OP as it is apparent that he is a minor. But I do want to ground him.
Anyway, we're all in here arguing over a dumb proposal and some kid's inflammatory comments on one of the better goaltenders in the league. I think we should all feel ashamed.

Liles is really our only true puck-moving d-man, so we need to keep him for at least this season. As much as he is brought up in trade proposals, I feel like Liles will actually be an important piece to the Avalanche next season. Also, Liles and Mueller were magic at the point on the PP for the few games they got to play together.

I forgot, didn't contract negotiations with Wheeler break down and he is being taken to arbitration? Why would anyone trade for such a player without knowing what the arbitrator awards?
More and more the proposals here on HF are about fans wanting to trade for 'Get out of jail' cards while using the reverse psychology of a six year old claiming how great the player you want to get rid of is.
