Joe Sakic and the Colorado Avalanche are getting heavier as the days go by as they have traded forward Tyson Jost to the Minnesota Wild for Nico Sturm. It is a one-for-one trade that clears up some cap space for the Avalanche.
Tyson Jost is a former tenth overall pick and has been a fan favorite and heartwarmer since his NHL career began with Colorado. Who can forget how sweet his grandfather was in the crowd after Josty scored his first NHL goal. General Manager Joe Sakic and Tyson Jost had a conversation in the past that seemed to spur on some serious growth from Jost.
