Colorado Avalanche: Analyzing Joey Hishon’s Defection

Former Colorado Avalanche prospect Joey Hishon has signed on to play hockey in Europe with Helsinki Jokerit:

Hishon was Colorado’s 17th-overall draft pick in 2010. Since then, though, he’s only played in 13 regular season and three playoff games with the Colorado Avalanche. He earned a goal and two assists in that time.

Hishon hasn’t played an NHL game since the conclusion of the 2014-15 season, though he did appear in a few pre-season games prior to 2015-16.

Joey Hishon has ever been a point of fairy tale for Avs fans, the ultimate “what if” character.
