Would the Avs want him back?

 

[LemonSauceD]

Can see him getting picked up. Pretty serviceable depth guy with speed and PK utility.

 

[DeltaSwede]

Hope he clears. He's a player

 

[DingDongCharlie]

Colorado has to claim him right?

 

[Coffee]

Colorado has to claim him right?

Yup, he’s going to the Avs

 

[BluesyShoes]

Damn I really like Aman. He's only 24 and he doesn't make many mistakes. Not very physical and doesn't really have any standout attributes, which is why he is a struggles for ice time.

 

[beardo]

He’s gotta be gone right? : /

 

[kanucks25]

Very vanilla 13th forward but can take regular NHL shifts without looking out of place and is generally responsible in his own zone.

Would not be surprised if he's taken but also wouldn't care that much.

 

[LTIR]

Meh, its just Aman , not Daman

 

[BKarchitect]

Definitely would be a likely claim by the Avs but I'm not sure what the order is - the Avs already made a claim with picking up Ludvig earlier. Aman is dirt cheap and servicable and a center - I can see multiple teams being interested in him as an improvement at the end of the bench type of guy.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Doesn't move the needle whatsoever but doesn’t hurt you either.
Overall decent replacable depth but not much else.

 

[Fatass]

Can see him getting picked up. Pretty serviceable depth guy with speed and PK utility.

And he’s cheap.

 

[seafoam]

Barzal and Duclair are out 4-6 weeks a piece and NYI have not been overly impressed with their 11th and 12th forwards.

Wouldn’t mind seeing a claim here.

Cope ? Or is this a sincere statement

He’s still getting better, Avs/Red Wings are gonna turn him into a solid 3rd liner

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

NJ lost two 4th liners to injury this week in Lazar and Bastian, so they might make some sense. Lack of organizational depth at center, too....

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

I hope sens claim.

 

[AlainVigneaultsGum]

Likely gonna get claimed. Shitty.

Perfectly serviceable 4th liner/13th forward with C utility.

 

[Treb]

At this point, I'd probably take him over Dvorak.

 

[Coffee]

At this point, I'd probably take him over Dvorak.

Seen Dvorak to San Jose

 

[LeBrun is a Clown]

Wouldn’t mind him down the middle in Anaheim over lunderstrom.

Aman could carve out a career as a 2-3C with Backlund - esque production. More untapped potential than just a 4c

No chance he passes through

 

[biturbo19]

He's not a bad 4th line player. He's got size, speed, defensively responsible, with PK utility. But he's just so utterly non-dynamic. He has the tools to make more of an impact, but i don't think he's really got the mentality for it. He's not physical enough and he's a total zero offensively.

Wouldn't be shocked if a team with some injuries or a bad bottom-6 took a flyer on him, but also wouldn't be remotely surprised if he clears. He's just...not the sort of player that garners much of a second look.

 

[Son of Petter]

Nila Aman, welcome to the Colorado Avalanche. The one that got away…

 

[Russian_fanatic]

He's fine as a 4th liner. He won't hurt you offensively or defensively, and he can play a little center. He's a decent PK'er.

I wish he would have added more to his game, he's very vanilla. No creativity what so ever.
