Avalanche make moves before start of season, claim goaltender Ivan Prosvetov on waivers from Arizona

DENVER (AP) — The Colorado Avalanche made a series of moves Monday on the eve of the regular season, including a claim of goaltender Ivan Prosvetov on waivers from the Arizona Coyotes.

Prosvetov becomes a contingency plan with backup Pavel Francouz being placed on the injured, non-roster list. Starter Alexandar Georgiev will receive a bulk of the work after a season in which he won a career-best 40 games.

Colorado centers Jean-Luc Foudy and Chris Wagner were added to the injured, non-roster list along with captain Gabriel Landeskog. The 30-year-old Landeskog is slated to miss a second straight season as he recovers from cartilage replacement surgery on his right knee.

Colorado opens the season Wednesday at Los Angeles.

Prosvetov went 4-3 with a 3.98 goals-against average over seven games with the Coyotes last season. The 24-year-old was a fourth-round pick by Arizona in the 2018 NHL draft.
