Wait, I thought the Avs didn’t sign guys…

(Also he was solid in camp, but not sure this is a worthwhile contract)

Love this, let’s see what the kid can do

Please let him be a overage late bloomer.

Its already a win to have a 7th round pick worthy of a ELC.

I know that I'm usually the guy with the answers around here but WTF is a Prishchepov?

I could definitely see why the scouts liked him during preseason. He was a monster in board battles, seemed to always come away with the puck whenever he went in on the forecheck. If he develops even a little bit of offense, he could turn into a big 4th liner who is a giant pain in the ass on the forecheck.

I guess they liked him too. Good for him to go from an overager who was on nobody's radar to a 7th round pick to an ELC in the span of six months.

I think they want to play him in the Eagles, so they decided to give him an ELC. Is he old enough for an AHL contract?

Maybe its cause we drafted him? Ivan Ivan got an AHL contract before getting ELC.
