What do we think Avs nation? Looks like a potential shrewd move to acquire a potential long-term future 2C.
We’re gonna be so stacked for centers this year
Could be that one of last year’s weakness is a strength this year.
Maybe, but he’s 26. I think he’s the replacement and upgrade for JTC on a cheaper RFA contract. So an even better 3C
That could certainly be. Either way, I’m very impressed with the Avs moves over the last few days. They re-stocked their C position in a shrewd manner and also went ahead and drafted twice earlier on.
Avs GM Chris MacFarland comments on Ross Colton:
We like a lot about him. We like his competitiveness. We like his versatility. He’s a guy that can score. He’s a guy that plays physical, he plays around the net. He comes from a team that’s been at the top for a very long time. That pedigree is going to fit seamlessly into our room. We’re very fortunate to be able to add him to our mix.
It was the 2nd round pick they traded
Thanks! I modified the title.
