    Not good for hopeful Nabakov owners that expected him to come over soon and start

    seems like a contract that could be moved rather easily. i doubt he lasts 5 yrs with them.

    This signing seems a bit soon to me; the term could look pretty bad if he flounders. Plus if I were Colorado I would want to get Rantanen taken care of before I commit money and term to Blackwood.

    I had the same thought. This seems like a repeat of Georgiev. He was an unproven goalie (as a starter) traded to the Avalanche on July 7, 2022 and signed to a 3 year deal just three days later. Turns out Georgiev couldn’t make it as a starter. Here we are with Blackwood (who frankly has less of a track record than Georgiev did) who gets signed to a 5 year extension after only playing a few games with Colorado. No doubt he’s done well in the short sample size. But it’s not an insignificant amount of cap $s and years to give to someone who hasn’t been an NHL starter before. Especially for a perennial Cup contender.

    GOALIE: W(2), GA(-1.5), Saves(0.3), SO(3)
    Positions - 3C, 2RW, 2LW, 4D, 2G, 5 Bench

    Colorado has not had a good track record with goalies in recent years in my opinion. It appears like they try to get cheap bargain goalies and hope they play good enough. When their defense was better, I don’t think that was a terrible strategy. But given their defense woes this season, coupled with the fact that Blackwoods contract is no longer cheap, I don’t see this aging well at all.

    Blackwood has potential, but he has been fairly inconsistent throughout his career. Maybe it’s just me, but I’d think a team would want to see some consistency out of their goalie before locking him up…
