Default Semyon Varlamov on IR.

Colorado Avalanche@Avalanche15m15 minutes ago
NEWS: The Avalanche has placed goaltender Semyon Varlamov on IR. Calvin Pickard has been recalled from the Lake Erie Monsters.

Huge blow to the Avs' - Can Berra carry the load until Varlamov is ready to go?

Huge loss for the Avs, they did sign Berra to a 3 year deal so they must have some faith in him.. I know I don't.

His stat line so far this year is terrible, I don't think it's the worst thing in the world.

0-2-1, 3.80 GAA, .910% for reference.

I guess IR doesn't necessarily mean long term. How bad is his injury?

The Colorado Avalanche have placed goaltender Semyon Varlamov on injured reserve with a groin injury.
The move comes hours after Avalanche head coach called Varlamov a “game-time decision” for Thursday’s match against the Ottawa Senators.
Varlamov is 0-2-1 this season with a .910% save percentage and a 3.80 goals against average.
He finished the 2013-14 with a 41-14-8 record in 63 games. He also posted a .927% save percentage and 2.41 GAA.
Goaltender Calvin Pickard was recalled from the AHL’s Erie Monsters in Varlamov’s place.
Not sure how severe it is but usually groin injuries are 2/4 weeks correct unless its a tear.

Watch Berra become a Vezina calibre goalie now.

Also, wouldn't it be awesome if Brodeur became an Av.

I can imagine Roy saying to him "see, you couldn't beat me, so now you've had to join me"

I picked up Berra as a third goalie on my team earlier this week. Maybe that will end up having been a good decision.

Am I the only person that thinks Varlomov is seriously over-rated?
