Die-hard Colorado Avalanche fans should have a level of familiarity with Chris Wagner. Back during the 2015-16 campaign, the Avalanche picked him up on waivers from the Anaheim Ducks in their constant search for depth. He played 26 games for the team, picking up four goals and providing a ton of energy, but the team placed him back on waivers before the season ended.

At that time, the 24 year old was just trying to show he could play in the NHL. How different is he now, at 32, compared to the guy Avalanche fans saw years ago?

“A lot of experience,” Wagner joked on Saturday.
