Carter George

Rounding out our list of potential goaltenders for the Avs to consider selecting in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft, is Carter George from the Owen Sound Attack in the OHL. As a part of Owen Sound, he was 23-21-6 in 56 games. He was tied for the league lead in the OHL with four shutouts.

The most interesting stat I can give you about him is that he was the goaltender who bested one of our other potential draft picks, Nicolas Kempf, in the World Juniors last season. His 6-0 performance was dominating, and it all ended with a 6-4 Canada victory over the United States.

George has a pedigree for winning, which gives him a good scouting report. That is also something that the Avs need, especially if they want to continue making deep playoff runs.
