Optimism=Delusional
With the Colorado Eagles finally beginning their season tonight it’s time to move on to a fresh new thread and season. I’ll post the lineup here for posterity when it’s out.

You don’t need to, it’s okI seriously don’t recognize a single name on the Grizzlies roster.
The only one I know is Matthew Boucher, son of Philippe Boucher and former Remparts.I seriously don’t recognize a single name on the Grizzlies roster.

It’s truly bizarre I have no idea how he just shows up on the Avs practice report when everything else printed there lines up exactly with what I saw yesterday but then they said he’s out with UBI on the broadcast. What a crazy coincidence?? Maybe we’ll know more tomorrow.Is Kaut neither playing for the Eagles tonight nor on the taxi squad at the moment? What’s going on there?
I thought Jones was pretty good, made a couple big saves early and can’t fault him on the stuff that went in the net, enormous breakdowns in front of him.How was Jones?
Obviously the PK was not good looking at the scoresheet but it was a pretty ragtag lineup and it’s just one game so who knows.
The taxi squad makes everything trickle up, shit AHL and ECHL roster.That line up had far too many veteran AHL journeymen for my liking, but I guess Avs might've went that route from the addition of the taxi squad taking players and the overall Covid protocols. I really hope this just a one time thing and isn't necessarily a glimpse of the future. Like what is a Ryan Wagner, Riley Woods, Miles Gendron, Callahan Burke, Charlie Gerard, Ian Scheid, and Matt Abt?
They have a ton of those guys, not just Megna. This is how they appease Billington by giving him expensive toys.What happened to all the AHL stars that make $150-200k in the minors this year? I can't imagine a lot of owners wanting to pay that kind of salary with no crowds.
I suspect Eagles want Megna to be with Avs all year, with his $360k minor salary.
I’m not sure I understand the “ECHL veterans” dilemma. We have no prospect in the ECHL right now so no one is burried on the Grizzlies. With the taxi squad we need additional bodies in the AHL, obviously these are going to be veteran minor leaguers to fill out the Eagles.They have a ton of those guys, not just Megna. This is how they appease Billington by giving him expensive toys.
Wagner is going to be around all year, they absolutely love that guy. A few of them who were on PTOs will go back but they purposely want ECHL veterans.
