Confirmed with Link: Avs claim G Kaapo Kähkönen off waiwers from WPG

[LurkerMcgee]

While that's true, we have gotten some good signs over the years.

If he lays another egg we might get the casuals on board.

After this game non hockey fans should be aware of how embarrassing the avalanche goalie situation is. Any team set to play Colorado in the next few months has the be licking their lips at a potential 10 spot…on 15 shots

New 1G straight from waivers

Can we have Nuke’s guys make this dude an illegal Visa?

We don’t have time to waste.

Yeah

Avs are in desperate need for some big Kahk energy right about now

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

It feels good to pick up a new starter from waivers. What a day to be alive.

What are the cap implications of Georgie is waived?

Do we get any savings?

We should be able to trade him, obviously we can’t get anything for him, but we should be able to move him to a cap floor team if we attach a pick. Since this is his last year in his deal, hopefully the pick wouldn’t be too high.

After pulling him in his first 2 starts, and very early in this last one, they can’t send him back out there again.

Justus has also let in goals but he won’t be an issue at backup and still has a chance to get his shit together, Georgie is cooked.

 

[Richard Doll]

I looked on cap wages and it looks like 2.2 mill of dead cap if we send him to minors.

That’s probably not enough of a savings, we need more for when guys come back later.

Looks like 1.4 dead cap if we buy him out. That’s a little better, but we really just need to move him.
