Colorado looking to move Duchene/Landeskog?:
The Avs are shopping Matt Duchene, but aren't opposed to holding off on trading him until after the season is over.
Sportsnet says: "They're telling everyone they're not changing what they want. Three or four pieces, depending on the age. A young defenseman or a goaltender. And they have told everybody, if they don't get what they want, they'll take it to the end of the season."

Yahoo's Josh Cooper spoke to a Colorado team source and wrote Tuesday that unless the Avs general manager Joe Sakic gets blown away with an offer, both Duchene and Landeskog will mostly likely stay put.
