Aarif breaks down the Avs' signing of Tomas Tatar. He looks at where the forward will fit in the lineup and the trickle-down effect of adding him. He also recalls watching a lot of Tatar when he was in Detroit, and why calling him a non-factor in the playoffs isn't entirely correct. Aarif also touches on the departure of skills coach Shawn Allard and the latest Mike Babcock news currently dominating the NHL headlines. All that and more on this edition of Hockey Mountain High: Your go-to Avalanche Podcast.
