Colorado Avalanche
Avalanche lineup for today’s game in Minnesota
Above is your lineup card for today’s Avalanche exhibition game No. 3 of the preseason. Avs come in at 0-2. As you can see, it’s mostly a prospect-heavy lineup against the Wild’s veterans. That’s the standard for most preseason games. The road team sends the B team and the home team, more often than not, plays the A team.
This is a big game for guys like Vladislav Kamenev and Valerl Nichushkin, guys who are on the bubble when it comes to having any chance at a regular forward spot. It’ll be nice to see Shane (not Shawn, as spelled above) Bowers too. Also, it’s one N in Conor Timmins’ name, guys.
Pavel Francouz will start in goal for the Avs and is expected to play the whole game.
The game is not going to be broadcast on Altitude. Just the radio. It’ll be nice to hear the dulcet tones of Conor McGahey.
These two teams meet again Sunday night at the Pepsi Center.

I’m just curious, does Rantanens agent discuss the progress with his client, or has he just looking to take advantage of a situation to line his own pockets (commission wise). I think even Rantanen would be a team player & realize some of that cap space is to help the team overall with resigning other players, & possibly even depth. I sure hope a deal is reached soon, we want the best line in hockey on the ice for the season opener. Looking forward to a Kadri line too!
No, he discusses everything with Mikko
