Denver IceChips

 Recently the Spurs have seen themselves slide down to 4th in the Canosa Conference with the Ronin and Ice Caps nipping at their heels one point back.

This prompted a trade for more scoring with Nichushkin on the shelf.
The Spurs brought in Evander Kane from Fort Erie sending back a 1st rounder in 2025.
A steep price for sure but with Kane on the right side 1st line with Nelson & Guentzel, it is hoped more scoring will be stimulated.
The only concern is Kane's endurance.
The Spurs also received several late round picks in 2025 with Kane.

In other news, Guentzel has risen to #1 in scoring for the Spurs with 49 pts (25g, 24a).
#2 is blueliner Petry with 42 (6-36). Coming up in 3rd is rookie dman J.J Moser with 41 (12-29).
Hence the reason for bringing in a forward with scoring potential.

Between the pipes Tristan Jarry has been a disappointment of late.
Hopefully he can return to his early season form.
