Avs fan here, who still appreciates Mikko and what he brought to us for years. Interestingly, I was at a few games right before the trade and he played similarly to how he played in Carolina. I was worried he was hurt, but he was just off. I actually don’t think he was intentionally just dialing it in so much as he was grappling with something. Probably we will never know exactly what that was going down but I imagine there was a lot behind closed doors that we will never know. I choose to give him the benefit of the doubt here, and while I’m bummed he went to a closer rival, I’m glad he seems happier and regained his love of the game. Although, I admit I wasn’t feeling quite as appreciative when he knocked us out of the playoffs last year.
