They can certainly both take their game to the next level. As with any team, goaltending is the key and Varlamov will be no exception. As he goes, so do the Avs!avrilanchehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06067596724463654039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4052819035106593439.post-84628010030254612872011-10-07T10:30:48.550-07:002011-10-07T10:30:48.550-07:00They have the talent to make the playoffs...We saw...They have the talent to make the playoffs...We saw that 2 years ago, and even with the loss of key figures from that season (Anderson, Stewart) I think that their core is still there in Stats and Deuchene.
