The Colorado Avalanche have a solid one-two punch at the goalie position. Or, the Avs have a goalie duel on their hands. Considering GM Joe Sakic has stated Colorado has two number-one goalies, I’m going to say it’s a little of each.
Semyon Varlamov has been the Avalanche’s number-one goalie for years now. The last time you could say he was fighting for that position was during the Golden Why Not Us 2013-14 season. That was the year he threw a Vezina Finalist season, so I’m really not upset he’s fighting for the top spot again.
