A zag on the Norris Trophy ballot, an obvious choice for Hart Trophy and more NHL Awards votes
In this week’s Avalanche journal, beat writer Bennett Durando shares his 2022-23 NHL Awards ballot. But first, a report card evaluating Colorado’s busy week of trades and draft picks.An above-average trade because it was undeniably good business. Johansen fits a need. But does he fit Colorado’s style and system? That’s the only area worthy of scrutiny. Whether Johansen at 31 — fresh off leg surgery — has the skating ability to keep up with the Avalanche will be answered in October.
Two trades in one to simplify things. A masterclass in flipping picks. This is the front office’s bag: identifying teams in need of a salary dump before free agency and pouncing on trade opportunities at the draft. Considering the difficulty of Colorado’s contract negotiations with restricted free agent Bo Byram, there was always a chance that his fellow RFA Newhook would become a trade chip this offseason.
Draft experts tend to agree Ritchie has a high floor, making him a smart late first-round pick for an organization that needed to feel secure in at least one prospect’s likelihood of becoming an NHL player. His upside is where opinions differ. Does the OHL center possess the skill to develop into a top-six forward in the NHL? Or does he plateau as a bottom-six Swiss army knife? The risk factor is health. He projected as a top-10 pick before playing through a shoulder injury last season.
