Injuries are an unfortunate part of the game but they create opportunities for others to get their chance to show they can contribute in the NHL. It appears that Shane Bowers will finally get that chance as the Colorado Avalanche announced last night that Bowers will get called up in advance of tonight’s game against the Nashville Predators.
The 28th overall pick in the 2017 NHL Draft did not have an easy road to get to this point as Bowers spent two years at Boston University and then three years playing through his Entry Level Contract before hitting waivers at the conclusion of training camp this fall.
