Marko Dano looked like a kid on Christmas morning.

The 23-year-old forward was all smiles at Bell MTS Place today, just an hour after learning his contract had been picked up by the Colorado Avalanche.

The Jets placed Dano on waivers Sunday afternoon, and their Central Division rivals claimed him this morning.

Spotted outside the Jets dressing room prior to practice, a grinning Dano said he was excited to join a new team but politely requested some time to join his new organization before he does interviews.
