After final cuts, our 2010-2011 Avalanche roster is set for opening night.*
The surprise player making the team is Mark Olver who I know absolutely nothing about other than being the smallest player on the roster at 5'10" and 170lbs. His college stats show he knows how to score which is great but that size doesn't appear conducive to playing on the fourth line. So where does he fit in?
Ryan Stoa continues to disappoint, getting sent down again even with a wing spot opened up with Peter Mueller's concussion. He's heading towards bust territory but still has time to turn that around.
Jonas Holos made the squad as most people were expecting as he apparently had a solid preseason. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in action come Thursday evening.
Other than that, there isn't much of note as to how the roster shaped up. Now we have an exciting four days to wait for opening night. This is our Dec 21st people. Savor the wait!
*As of this writing, they still have Ryan Stoa and Colby Cohen listed on the roster which is not accurate.

I'm really surprised Olver made the cut. I was less than impressed with him in camp, and in the first preseason game, which I saw live. But his shots got on net, which the Avs can use. I guess that's a start.
