Thanks for the tip Dario… I don’t have the means to pay for my own site right now, but at some point in the near future, maybe I’ll set up an account with a different company.

Colin,

I would visit your site more often but from work your blog is blocked by websense as a “club or message board”. If you get your own web address and lobbied Websense to be listed as a “news” site you might get more traffic. I can’t see the official Avalanche forums since they switched formats nor can I get to the HFboards. Got to wait until I get home to see those. Just fyi.

As always, pretty good analysis on Theo. I might mention, that even though he seriously struggled on the ice, when he was demoted he didn’t cause a fuss and fully supported Budaj. He could have poisined the locker room but decided to handle the situation with integrity, so he deserves a lot of praise for that.

I also have two very lengthy blog posts on the Avs options for Theo next year.

Part 1

Part 2

I’d love to get your, and others, takes on it. (P.S. I am in the “Keep Theo as a backup next year camp”)

Theo is going to have some serious hat hair in ‘08.

Woah I am so glad you finally did Theo. I hate him so much! He was not ready at all to become a starter again and I dont think that he ever will be. He has a knee problem and hip problem, so then why would he ever make a good goalie. To be goalie you need to be able to move laterally with quick speed, and he cant do that. He had too many “Theo Moments” as I call them, where he would end up flat his stomach with the puck across the line. I agreee, I think he will be here ON THE BENCH for one more year. We gave him a shot and he blew it….goodbye and get out! He needs to re-gain strength again, but not here. The Avs dont have to time to be messing around with a player like him. Go Budaj!
