After the kind of season that the Colorado Avalanche had this past year, a good draft was absolutely necessary for the franchise - even after losing the lottery. After taking blue-chip defenders with their first two picks, the Avs made Nick Henry the first forward selected in their draft class with the 94th overall pick.
So what are the Avs getting with their pick at the top of the fourth round? Henry is a guy that can score, took advantage of playing with an elite center and a player that most thought would have been selected a round earlier than he was.
