Don't Hold Your Breath

Tyler Arnason is earning a bit of praise from the Rocky Mountain News:

Tyler Arnason reported to training camp in tip-top shape, physically and mentally, and is on a mission to make the Avalanche look shrewd for signing him as a free agent.

So far, he's making a favorable impression.

AS nice as that is, let's not go too crazy here. We're only talking about camp and the Burgundy and White game here. The intersquad game was won 4-3 by the Burgundy team, of which Arnason was not a part of. He did score a goal though. Also, Jose Theodore stopped every shot (21) sent his way.

Tonight, the Avs take on the Stars at the Pepsi Center, in the first 'real' preseason game. I will not be going, even though it's only 6 blocks away. I have other plans, and will be executing them to perfection. More on that later.

Also, I know I promised the Red Wings smack back to IwoCPO at Abel2Yzerman. It's coming, probably tomorrow. Patience, young Skywalker.

Nice to see that the "Fat Bastard" (Ottawa's nickname for him) decided to try and earn the money given to him. For the Avs sake I hope he can contribute more this season then he did last, but when the guy only has 2 hits in 58 games, you can't expect much.
