Past Avalanche Drafts (Round 6)

We continue or series with Round 6. Not an abundance of success stories in this round, which is as expected. David Aebischer, Brian Willsie, Riku Hahl and Derek Peltier are all Avalanche 6th rounders. Brett Clark was a 6th rounder as well, but not by the Avs.

All I can say is: Holy Finnish Goaltenders, Batman! Ramo. Norrena. Nurminen. Niittymaki. Add in Sweden's Henriq Lundqvist and Czechoslovakia's Martin Prusek and end up with a bunch of missed opportunities.
