Avs Take Martin Kaut 16th Overall
6 years agoThe Colorado Avalanche landed Czech right winger Martin Kaut with the 16th overall pick on Friday night. There was some concern for the young winger's health after he had heart surgery and remained in Europe for an extra year despite being drafted by the WHL's Brandon Wheat Kings, but he made it clear to reporters (and the Avalanche) that he will make the move to North America for the start of next season. A quick winger with a penchant for finding scoring areas, he's likely to develop into a Patrice Bergeron or a Marian Hossa-calibre of player.
