The Colorado Avalanche are beginning to sell.
The Avalanche announced Friday that the team has dealt forward Cody McLeod to the Nashville Predators in exchange for forward Felix Girard.
McLeod has appeared in 28 games with the Avalanche this season, scoring one goal. He has one year remaining on his contract, owning a $1.33 million cap hit.
FYI the Avs retain 40 percent of McLoed's salary/cap hit. He has another year on his deal next season at $1.33 M cap hit https://t.co/MqK2m0WJLf
