The Avalanche failed to qualify for the playoffs, but the Russian netminder did his part, posting a 27-25-3 record with a .914 save percentage. The 32-year-old is the clear-cut starter on a young Colorado team that boasts several weapons including Nathan MacKinnon, Matt Duchene, Gabriel Landeskog and Tyson Barrie. The sudden offseason resignation of head coach Patrick Roy raises some questions about the stability of the team, but Varlamov will continue to see loads of action in 2016-17 and should post quality rate stats. Colorado has the potential to be a strong team, but Varlamov has failed to reach 30 wins in back-to-back seasons, so although he sees a ton of playing time, the Avalanche will need to improve their overall play if Varlamov hopes to significantly increase his win total in 2016-17 -- especially in a very tough Central Division.","seasonId":2017,"date":"Wed Sep 14"},"positionRank":45}
