The Colorado Rockies waved the white flag more than any season in their last 20 years. They were able to acquire seven different minor league pitchers, all for players who would be free agents at the end of the season. But did they actually get enough? Would Elias Díaz have brought back the most return? Did any of the five…
Jesse’s Observations Gabe Landeskog After literal months of hearing next to nothing regarding the status of Colorado Avalanche Captain Gabriel Landeskog, we were finally told to expect to see him on the ice for the first time since before Christmas. Selfinshly, I was just happy to finally have something to say to the countless number of folks who have asked…
This is always such a funny week for hockey. You are smack dab in the middle of the dog days of the season, everything just feels like it’s on autopilot, and everyone is ready for a break. That said, what waits on the other side of the All-Star break is an all-out sprint to the end of the season. The…...
Well here we are, no more wondering, we’ve seen all the moves teams made. Some are vastly improved, some made great decisions for the sake of their franchises, and other stood pat to watch their process play out. Oh, and one traded a player they weren’t allowed to trade. No matter what, to was a busy week for all 32…...
Alright, for starters… I apologize that this is coming out later than normal, but I wanted to wait until the trade deadline had passed so that I wasn’t posting information that became immediately out-of-date. It was a really interesting week, with a ton of moving parts, so let’s get straight to it. 1. Evgenii Dadonov This situation is wild, and…...
The NHL’s Trade Deadline is officially behind us, and it was the most active deadline day that I can remember in recent years. It was a buyer’s market, with more teams in willing to sell than we normally see. The Eastern conference playoff picture has been most set since January, and the math has really begun to shake out who…...
The deadline is just days away, and it’s officially time for teams to make some decisions. This week, we’re talking about the latest news on every team, and where the focus is come Monday’s Trade Deadline. 1.

When Dodgers’ Will Smith swung through an 0-2 knuckle curve from Cubs’ Craig Kimbrel to finish a combined no-hitter on June 25, few expected it would somehow be the beginning of the end for the North Siders. Tied for first in the NL Central with the Milwaukee Brewers and nine-games over .500 at the end of that memorable day, Chicago…...
The Avs certainly didn’t wow anyone at the deadline, but they nibbled the edges for some improvement. https://youtu.be/jJpnn9CFjZc
The trade deadline always presents an odd exercise in building a team that’s trying to win a championship. It’s almost never core pieces that get moved but complementary ones, players on the periphery. After all, it’s largely the good teams in the league trying to pillage the bad teams for the players that can help them the most. That alone…...
Funny what a couple of years can do in the NHL. It wasn’t that long ago that Joe Sakic was in the shadow of the impetuous attitude of Patrick Roy, his former teammate back during their glory-filled playing day. Their management structure didn’t last long and yielded almost disastrous results. Their parting of ways left their pet project, the Colorado…...

At 50-58 entering Wednesday’s 2pm MST trade deadline, the Colorado Rockies and their General Manager Jeff Bridich could not plausibly justify adding to an underperforming, yet solid roster. Bridich was able to swing two trades, both of which were not on anyone’s radar nor will have any major impact on the 2019 season. In more of a seller’s mode,…...
DENVER – When German Márquez exited his start early, it wasn’t because he was dealt at the Trade Deadline. Unfortunately, the news was equally as unpleasant as he hobbled off the field with assistance in the top half of the seventh. GM Jeff Bridich said of the injury, “Full-body cramping… He tried to go out there and both legs cramped at…...

Maybe you can go home again. Colorado Rockies reliever Seunghwan Oh told South Korean media he’s considering a return to his home country’s professional baseball league in 2019. Oh, who was acquired at the 2018 trade deadline, was a much-needed addition to a then-struggling relief corps. He is under contract with the Rockies for the 2019 season after his vesting option…...
