]]> The Colorado Avalanche haven’t picked this high since 1991 when they chose Eric Lindros and, today, they chose Matt Duchene third overall.  Duchene was great with Brampton this year and I think that he will fit in well with the Avs.  He’s a good goal scorer and is a nice well-rounded player.

In his post draft interview, he talked about how much he loves the Avalanche (he has autographed jerseys from Patrick Roy and Joe Sakic) and they showed a picture of him in his room with all of his fan gear.  It doesn’t always happen so it’s pretty cool when a new player gets picked by a team he loves.
