Avalanche sign top college free agent Ben Meyers​



Arguably the top college free agent from this year’s crop was Minnesota captain Ben Meyers, and he has decided on where he’ll start his professional career. The Hobey Baker finalist signed a two-year, entry-level contract with the Colorado Avalanche that begins immediately, meaning he is eligible to play down the stretch but not in this year’s playoffs.

Burning the first year of the contract is an obvious selling point for the 23-year-old Meyers, who will become a restricted free agent following the 2022-23 season. Undrafted, he spent three years with the Golden Gophers, becoming one of the most reliable offensive players in the country. In 34 games this season he racked up 17 goals and 41 points, while also being selected to participate in the Olympics for Team USA. On the international stage he was a clear standout, scoring two goals and four points in four games.

Along with Wyatt Aamodt, who signed with the Avalanche earlier this week, Colorado has now brought in two of the captains from this year’s Frozen Four.
 
9-3 Colorado with a 5 point night for MacK lol... not too shabby. Came here to echo the help from the out of town scores yesterday, missed the Leaf game and just watched now, caught up on everything at the same time. Sometimes you're pissed you missed the night of hockey, usually actually, but once in a while it's meh, k.
