Other than hoping for the Colorado Avalanche to secure a win in the first game of their east coast road trip, there is another reason for Avs Faithful to tune in early to the game tomorrow night. Former Avalanche defenseman Erik Johnson played in his 1000th NHL game Saturday night in Philadelphia but saved the ceremony for when Colorado arrives in town to face the Flyers on Monday evening.
From a 1st overall draft pick to a veteran of 1,000 NHL games
Congratulations to Erik Johnson on joining the silver stick club!
