	Description:		Will it be Philipp Grubauer or Semyon Varlamov who wins the job as the Avalanche's starting goaltender? How much extra could it cost Colorado should 21-year-old winger Mikko Rantanen have another breakout season? Are there any prospects capable of making the opening night roster? Eventually all those questions will be answered. But for now, these are some of the major topics surrounding the Avalanche as they start the NHL preseason Tuesday against the Vegas Golden Knights at the Pepsi Center. The Athletic Denver's Ryan S. Clark and Nate Kreckman discuss those topics, along with why Avs fans should care about the Ottawa Senators, and how Samuel Girard's car accident over the summer gave the second-year defenseman a new perspective on life. Later, Nick Kosmider is joined by The Athletic Boston’s Jared Weiss to talk about the impact veteran free agent Isaiah Thomas could have on the Nuggets this season and why he’ll be an important player late in games.
