The Avs have a tendency to trade these types of players for another reclamation project. Most of the time it doesn't work out, but we did get Graves in one of those.

Isn't he the guy the Avs wanted to draft and StL took him just before them and they handed up with Stienburg?....
Yup it is.

Yeah, every year there are guys that weren't that impressive in camp, but then were in the pre-season games. Some guys just need that extra competition to bring it out in themselves perhaps.
You also can't judge the reliability/trustworthy aspect that you reference from practices. If they have a chance of playing in the NHL, then it's helpful for a coach to evaluate them in that area during a game. Hard to replicate the situations, and the intensity, in a practice setting.
Behrens is this year's example. Bednar said he didn't really like his rookie camp, but thought he really improved his performance once the pre-season games started. That definitely helped his callup chances this year.

I would claim Carrick in a heartbeat and play him at 4C. He isn't amazing or anything but he sure is better than any of our options right now.

Alexandrov was the Avs draft target under Hepple before St Louis took him a pick before the Avs who took Steinberg instead. There's probably been too much staff turnover since then for that to mean much anymore though

Do you guys realize that we haven’t seen an Avs W in the last 7 games?
The game 6 loss vs Dallas
3 rookie tournament losses
3 preseason losses
Are we ever gonna win a game again?

Hello Avs fans! I was curious about two things. How many games do you guys think Annunen will get this year? And what do you think of Georgiev overall?

Hello there!
Honestly, I'd like to see Justus get 30+ starts depending on how he holds up.
As for what I think of Georgive overall? Take the over...allways. The less I think of him the better my health. Although, I didn't mind him his first season. It was last season and the number of 4+ goal nights he had that put a foul taste in my mouth.

Good. Lose these meaningless exhibition games and show up pissed for the actual season.

I wouldn't claim a D-Man off waivers and stick him at #4C, personally.
That;s not the right Carrick. The guy the loilers put on waivers is a D-Man. The #4C you're thinking of signed a 3 year deal with the Rangers.
