Avalanche's Jack Ahcan: Brought up Monday

Ahcan was recalled from AHL Colorado on Monday.

The Avalanche had only six healthy blueliners before promoting Ahcan, so the 28-year-old will likely serve as the teams's seventh defenseman until Samuel Girard (upper body) is back in the lineup. Ahcan has played well with the Eagles so far this season, producing one goal, eight points and a plus-6 rating across seven appearances.
