Bacashihua to the Avs


Really, this is a non-pool related trade, but I thought I would make mention of it anyways. The St. Louis Blues sent minor-league goaltender Jason Bacashihua to Colorado for some future considerations.

Bacashihua lost the Manny Legace's (Wes) back-up job to Hannu Toivonen (Box 12) in training camp and it looks like the Blues' brass is quite content with the depth that the Blues have beyond Toivonen, not to mention the faith they have in Toivonen as a back-up. Now it seems Bacashihua will have to be a depth player in Denver where Peter Budaj (Dale B.) and Jose Theodore (Peter) rule the roost and are not doing too badly in the platoon sense. It looks as though the Avs need someone a little more stable in the minor-league system, if and when one of the two starters were to fall.
