After signing a trio of players — Matt Nieto, Rocco Grimaldi and Jesse Graham — the Colorado Avalanche made a little noise; however, they still haven’t made the noise all fans are waiting for, the signing of Nikita Zadorov.
In early July, reports surfaced that Zadorov had a mutual agreement with CSKA Moscow to sign with them if he didn’t have a deal with the Avs by the end of July. The end of July is on Monday…
That’s also the same KHL team where Mikhail Grigorenko recently signed a contract. Zadorov could have interest in reuniting with the one player he’s played on the same team with for his entire career.
