| 0:00.0 | Here's what we're hearing about the Colorado Avalanche as they approach the trade deadline. |
| 0:06.8 | Azzam Cadre is top of their to-do list, and it's an exciting time for Avalanche fans, |
| 0:13.4 | as Cadre is obviously a fan favorite following the 2002 Stanley Cup, but his time in Calgary appears to be coming to an end, and the avalanche are |
| 0:24.1 | first in line for his services. They have made him number one on their trade board. The sticking |
| 0:30.9 | point here continues to be the contract. There are three years left on Cadre's deal. He's already |
| 0:37.0 | 35 years old. He's having a down season with the flames. |
| 0:40.1 | $7 million. That's a lot of money. What we're hearing is that the avalanche are dead serious about getting Cadre to come back. |

| 1:35.3 | The other big story that has started to develop as the avalanche get near this trade |
| 1:39.2 | deadline, Valen Chuskin. |
| 1:41.6 | This isn't a player that you would think there would be a lot of interest in, |
| 1:45.7 | just with the recent suspension history and the players' assistance program problems that he's had. |
| 1:52.0 | It is surprising to hear his name out at this time of year. I think this is probably more of a summer thing, |
| 1:59.8 | but there have been a lot of |
| 2:01.5 | conversations about the Detroit Red Wings sniffing around and their interest in Natchushkin. |
