Default Avs fill biggest hole

The Colordado Avalanche had one glaring weakness heading into the CPHL playoffs - lack of a solid #2 goalie to take some pressure off the young Cristobal Huet.

The Avs addressed that need by acquiring Mike Dunham in exchange for Brandon Prust. Thanks to the Blue Jackets for the smooth trade talks.

Huet sits atop the league in GAA and Save %, and despite having lower ratings than Dunham at this time he of course is expected to lead the way as the Avs ride out the rest of the season and aim to start the playoffs at home.

Nice deal for the Avs picking up Dunham for the playoffs!

Jackets decided that we had to move Dunham....We probably should have asked for Thomas Greis in return, but didn't think to do so until later. D'oh. Oh well we like Prust's odds of making the NHL Flames as a 4th line guy next year and at this point in time we want to find as many warm bodies as we can.
