Avalanche continues to give its 2018 first-round draft choice a long look
Martin Kaut poses after being selected sixteenth overall by the Colorado Avalanche during the first round of the 2018 NHL Draft at American Airlines Center on June 22, 2018 in Dallas, Texas. Teenage rookie Martin Kaut on Sunday continued to play with forwards who will make the Avalanche’s opening-night roster, providing further proof the club will give its 2018 first-round draft pick a long look this preseason.
In Day 3 of training camp, Kaut, 18, was again the right wing Tyson Jost‘s line, along with left winger Alex Kerfoot. Jost is expected to become the Avs’ second-line center and coach Jared Bednar said he wants to keep Kerfoot and Jost together.
