Bellemare will join the Avalanche on a professional tryout agreement, RDS.ca reports Wednesday.

Bellemare returns to Colorado after three seasons away, having logged 122 regular-season appearances and notched 18 goals and 15 assists with the Avs over two years. At this point in his career, Bellemare shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value given his limited offensive upside and the fact that he may periodically serve as a healthy scratch -- especially once Gabriel Landeskog (knee) and Valeri Nichushkin (suspension) return to the lineup.
