A familiar face, Downie played extremely well (when healthy) during his first stint with the Avalanche, posting 21 points in 33 games.

He is a buzzsaw, an agitator, a surprisingly good passer and would fill a position of need with the team. He might also be willing to sign a two-way deal, after spending time in the AHL last season.

He’s a hard worker and a good forechecker, who would seemingly work well in the system Jared Bednar likes to play. If only him and Gabriel Landeskog could play nice this time around.
