The Colorado Avalanche have signed goaltender Calvin Pickard to a one-year, two-way, $850,500 contract, according to BSN Denver.
Pickard, 23, looked really strong for the Avalanche, recording a .932 save percentage and a 2.35 goals against average in his first 16 NHL games of his career.
Barring any sort of injury or other matter, Pickard will start out the 2015-16 season with the Lake Erie Monsters in the AHL as the primary goaltender, behind Semyon Varlamov and Reto Berra on the Avalanche goaltender depth chart.
