With the season coming to an end for the Colorado Avalanche last week, general manager Joe Sakic has set his sights towards the offseason. This summer will be a busier one that most given that the Avalanche have a a number of high profile free agents to re-sign while also needing to navigate through another expansion draft.
Luckily it seems as though one of the Avalanche veterans is set to make his life a little easier by taking a tough decision out of his hands.
As has been speculated all season, it is now all but confirmed that Erik Johnson plans to waive his no-movement clause so that the Avalanche don’t need to use up one of their protection spots on him during the expansion draft.
