The Avs currently need depth at forward and somebody who can win faceoffs. How about a guy with the following going for him:
- Led the NHL in faceoff win percentage (64.33%) in 2007-08 for the 8th consecutive season
- This mystery man has averaged 30+ points a season during his NHL career
- He was an All-Star in 2007
- He's averaged 66 games a season over the last 5 years
- He's one of my favorite under-rated players.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I'm talking about Yanic Perreault.
He's a UFA, so no need to find a trading partner and the Avs have the cap space and a need at center with Super Joe on the shelf.. Pierre LeBrun thinks it's a good idea!
Thoughts? Better ideas?
