Morning Flurries: Cuts, contracts and cod

It’s here. The NHL preseason schedule is upon us and tonight will be the first chance to see a number of new faces on the home bench in the Pepsi Center. But before we get to game action, Monday saw a lot of business get taken care of around the NHL.

From an Avalanche perspective, Monday was the final day of training camp for a number of the team’s prospects. Eighteen-year old goaltender Trent Minor was sent back to the Vancouver Giants of the WHL while Brandon Saigeon, Travis Barron, Josh Dickson, Igor Shvyrev and Josh Anderson were re-assigned to the Colorado Eagles.
