NHL debuts are one of the most joyful parts of hockey. A player getting to realize his dream in front of his family with the whole world watching is a moment so full of hope, promise and possibilities. Also it is a mark of success for the organization realizing real tangible contributions from an asset they brought in and cultivated into an NHL player, even for a brief moment. NHL debuts are what we live for, who can Avalanche fans expect to see in burgundy for the first time this coming season?
