Yeah I missed it too. Great job making sure we know that you added 2 mega-shitters to your lineup but not actually communicate the start date and times adequately.

Avs have the worst coverage in all of sports. I didn’t even know the rookie games started.

Yeah, it’s in the NHL app also but the Avs still have a bad media coverage

Neither apparently, does the Denver media. (It's still a Bronco's town after all.)
They don't televise pre-season games...... And they (the franchise) doesn't seem to care just as long as we .....
Keep buying those season tickets....

He is with Mittlestadt signed for only 3 years. CMac also offered up this logic too…
Bad as he had some brutal turnovers, but he got better as the game went along.

What do they have these kids wearing? If you don’t look good, you can’t play good!

This seems interesting to me... Perhaps a sign that Foudy is gonna be given a real look to start the year?

Yhea, with all the injuries to start the year, it's the best opportunity to give him, Kovalenko, etc... a real tryout. I wouldn't be surprised if Bednars keeps his 1st, 3rd and 4th lines similar to what he envisions when everyone is healthy and tests those kids on the 2nd line with Mitts. He might change the usage of the lines to protect them a bit however.

So we finished 0-3 in this rookie tournament and the talent out there was obviously lacking. A bigger problem I have is that Avs never really invite anybody interesting to these tourneys or even the main training camp. If there is a hyped prospect who was weirdly passed over in the draft, you never see them get an invite here. Ivan Ivan is probably one of the only few players Avs invited for the past four or so years that had an intriguing, later-bloomer sort of background.
Most, if not all of their invites are just AHL depth players who more likely will never see any sort of light in the NHL. I get you need role players and they are important, but considering how below-average our prospect pool is, you'd think they would go after some of the higher potential, higher bust invitees who have a red flag, but the potential talent to overcome it. No offence to players like Bunelle, Pyke, Hillebrand, or Scheel, but these are bottom-of-the-barrel scraps.

This shouldn't surprise anybody. Our prospect pool is embarrassingly poor.
Thank you for the depressing update.
