In their debut season in the AHL, the Colorado Eagles have done really well this season in terms of both development and on-ice success. The team has been able to graduate many of their players for stints in the NHL with the Colorado Avalanche, namely Sheldon Dries, A.J. Greer, Dominic Toninato, Andrew Agozzino, Tyson Jost (who was only down for a short time), and Pavel Francouz. The reigning Kelly Cup Champions from the ECHL a year ago sit tied for second in the Pacific Division in the AHL, comfortably in a playoff spot.
