It was a bittersweet day for Avalanche fans. On one hand, it was game day and the newest member of the team, Josh Manson, was in the lineup for his first game in Avs colors against the Los Angeles Kings.

On the other hand, a fan favorite in Tyson Jost was traded. Ending an up and down career with the Avalanche that never truly tapped his full potential. What made matters worse is the team Jost was traded to was the much hated Minnesota Wild. The Avalanche received forward Nico Sturm in return in the one for one deal.

Sturm is essentially a bigger version of Jost as their production is pretty similar. But Sturm comes as more than a million dollars less than Jost, which leads us to believe the Avs are freeing up as much cap space as possible for another bigger move before the deadline is over.
