The Colorado Avalanche have sent top pick Joey Hishon back to the Owen Sound Attack of the Ontario Hockey League.

Hishon was attempting to make the roster just like 18-year-olds Matt Duchene and Ryan O'Reilly did in 2009-10. The youngsters helped fuel Colorado's revival last season as the team made the post-season a year after finishing last in the Western Conference
