0:00.0

All right, well, quick update, Thomas Tuna, ta-ta, gone from the avalanche.

0:09.7

A couple hours ago, right, traded for a frift round pick to the Seattle Cracken.

0:16.6

Hey, let's just open it up right there right away.

0:19.2

Megan, what do you see in this and did you expect it?

0:23.3

I didn't expect it to happen right now, but the stylistic fit for Tatar and looking ahead at the opportunity that will be available for him later in the season started to make less sense.

0:34.9

And I'm sure we can get into the nuances of it a little bit later,

0:39.3

but I want to credit the front office for bringing him on board to the abs in the first place

0:43.3

because it made all the sense in the world. It was low risk, high reward, and I think that's what made it easy for it to happen now, right?

0:50.3

One year, 1.5, that's not the cheapest contract in the world, but for the

0:55.2

caliber of player that I believe that he still is, I think that makes it easy to entice a team like

1:00.1

Seattle. And as far as the stylistic misfit, nine points, 27 games, one goal, eight assists.

1:07.8

It just didn't cut it for the production they need in the top six. And when they're

1:11.7

looking down the line, is Alanda Skog a possibility for the playoffs? I don't know, but if there's

1:16.9

optimism around his return for playoffs, that's just going to be one winger spot then in the top

1:22.1

six that is committed to. And then the other is Kovalenko, a fit in the top six down the line. That's another winger spot that is also maybe in the middle six that they're looking to fill. That third line feels a little bit untouchable too that I don't know that they're trying to put Tamash Tatar there and break up the chemistry of wood, Colton, and O'Connor. And then we're looking at the fourth line. And that just doesn't really feel like a stylistic fit for what Tamash Datar is. I don't think his time with the abs is anything

1:48.8

to hang his hat on. I think that he was a great personality fit in the room, and they really did

1:54.0

enjoy having him. But the opportunity just started to make less and less sense, and I like to

1:59.9

see him go to a team that I think can be a

2:02.0

playoff contender. I imagine, too, this is something that he's agreeable to as well. And I look at

2:07.7

the reasons it makes sense for Seattle right now is just looking at them not having Berikovsky

2:12.8

available to them in the playoffs. If injury were to be a recurring issue for Berkovsky, who has been out of their lineup due to injury again,

2:21.3

Tamash Tatar can be a really solid depth option for their middle six, and that was something that they needed to replenish.
