The reboot already has started.
In the past month, the Avalanche — as part of general manager Joe Sakic's plan to get younger and faster and chase away the stench of this horrible season — has signed and brought in 2016 first-round draft choice Tyson Jost, 19; traded for winger Sven Andrighetto, 24; and recalled Anton Lindhom, 22, and J.T. Compher, 21, from the AHL's San Antonio Rampage.
