Avalanche Go Out And Get ‘Good Kid’ In Casey Mittelstadt (+)

If you know anything about the Colorado Avalanche, you know that acquiring good people is important to them. Obviously, being a good hockey player is pretty darn important in the NHL, but you want to know that you’re bringing in someone who will have no problem fitting in to your locker room.

It sounds like the Avalanche did exactly that on Wednesday when they acquired Casey Mittelstadt from the Buffalo Sabres.

“Good kid,” an Eastern Conference scout told me.

He’s also a heck of a hockey player.
