It has now been ten games with the Colorado Avalanche and a little less than a month since Nicolas Aube-Kubel was claimed off of waivers from the Philadelphia Flyers. While the Avalanche enduring the seemingly never-ending injury carousel should give Aube-Kubel security on the roster his performance has warranted perhaps a permanent stay in Colorado.
Two goals and two assists, all at 5v5, is more than the one assist Aube-Kubel contributed in his seven games with Philadelphia. He is seeing a little more time on ice in Colorado with an average of just over 11 minutes per game versus 9:37 in his previous home.
