That's a safe bet. That will happen because he will have to play over 30mins/game as both Girard and Makar will be injured after 15 first games.

Going to be even thinner after the 9 games for Ritchie if someone from that third line has to move up after.

People need to do better with their phrasing. Especially people in the media.
Submitting a roster without a johnson is actually the normal way to do it. Using your johnson is just showboating.

Those cuts were a little to close to my Johnson

This offseason felt like 3 yrs. Glad Avs hockey is back. 1-1 to start the season is fine just beat Vegas. I want Columbus to win every game they play this season.

With that line-up.... Oh boy... I really hope we can play .500 hockey for the first few weeks..... And we better pray no one of the remaining big guns gets hurt........
I mean, injuries and Avs go hand in hand.. But this year it seems half of the team is allready injured before the season has started.....

I think the line-up is pretty decent considering how many are out.
Obviously have to wait to see how they look, but on paper it's not a disaster.

I’d love that too but we all know that isn’t happening. I’m just hopeful they finally take the next step and end up with a good building block at the draft.

Certainly not the upcoming season indeed. They unloaded Laine for cap space they didn't need and replaced him with Aston-Reese (waiver claim). They also asked (and received) for the right to not meet the cap floor. Their only goal this year is to minimize expenses.
They are tanking harder than the former Coyotes on a bad year.
I know it's not likely to be a dominant year, and there will be some frustrations. But I'm definitely more excited about this year than last.
Looking forward to seeing Kovalenko/Ivan blossom into what I think will be capable 3rd/4th line NHL'ers. Excited to see if Ritchie can put anything together. Really looking forward to Mittelstadt and Drouin year 2, and obviously all of the drama/hope surrounding Landeskog/Nuke.
If everything goes well it could be a really good and fun season. Here's to hoping there's a plan to get rid of George if he has another year like last year.
