Pierre-Edouard Bellemare News: Dropped by Avs

Bellemare was released from his professional tryout with Colorado on Thursday.

Bellemare previously spent two seasons with the Avalanche, recording 18 goals, 15 assists and 239 shots in 122 outings. A veteran of 10 NHL campaigns, the 39-year-old Bellemare may have to settle for a minor-league-only deal or make the move to Europe for the upcoming season if he wants to extend his career. Still, with 700 games of NHL experience, Bellemare could still have some suitors around the league.
