I watched 20 or 30 Avalanche games last year. Varlamov's body of work was good. However as some pointed out earlier he is streaky. When his confidence is high he can be amazing. That said when his confidence is bad he can look like Hiller last year. I reckon he would be a good pick up for the right price. He has potential to steal games, and at 27 he might have better longevity than some others. I would go for it with hopes Ortio can pull some shifts.
