The Stastny name is legendary with the Nordiques/Avalanche franchise, and the second generation begins with Paul Stastny.

The son of Hockey Hall of Famer Peter Stastny, Paul Stastny, was fittingly drafted by the Colorado Avalanche in the 2nd Round in 2005.  Stastny was an All-Rookie Selection in 2006-07 and would also have a 78 Point Rookie season.  Stastny followed that up with a 71 Point year and in 2009-10 had a career-high 79 campaign. 

Following that year, Paul Stastny would have 50 Point years in three of the next four years. 

He left Colorado when he signed with the St. Louis Blues as a Free Agent.

Stastny would accumulate 458 Points in 538 Games with Colorado.
