  1. KHL rookie of the year, Playoff mvp, and starting goaltender for the KHL champions

    I strongly believe a team should at least draft a goalie every year with how unpredictable they can be so looking forward to seeing how one of the top goalie prospects pans out. He is apparently the most NHL ready this draft.

    I’m not sure how I’m supposed to feel, but his stats are good, and a 21 year old goalie is basically an 18 year old skater. If he can potentially help the team sooner than later, I’m all for it

  4. This is it folks, the first Avs developed starter (never heard of aebi and flanders so stop asking). Do I say this every year? Of course not! We’re breaking out of .905 with this one 🔥🔥

    Shitpost aside, my condolences to the poor soul stuck watching K hockey

    This is fantastic. Helps us work towards a different goalie mix after Georgie’s contract, dude has insane stats too. Might have been BPA regardless.

    Drafting a goalie before the 7th round?? That’s allowed?

    Looked up some of his highlights….it looks like he’s out of position often…

    Two home grown tenders as our future, Annunen and Nabokov. Could really help salary cap wise in a couple years. 👍

    I’m down for another goalie. I would like to see another 2nd line good Defender.
    Some extra bottom line help on offense 👍🏻
