O'Neill recorded a career-high 15 points in the 2009–10 season, playing with the Lake Erie Monsters of the AHL. Wes became the Monsters' franchise leader in games played last season with 159, and appeared in a further two games for the Avalanche in a brief stint in January. He is expected to begin the upcoming season back in the minors, and provide the Avs some callup depth in case some of their regular blueliners get bitten by the injury bug.
O'Neill made his NHL debut with the Avs last season, going pointless in three games late in the season. He provides very little offense and as such, is not much of a fantasy consideration at this time. He will likely start the season back in the AHL with the Lake Erie Monsters.
O'Neill, 21, has played the last four years at Notre Dame, and finished second among defensemen in points last season with 21. He could provide some depth for Colorado, but he needs to have a huge training camp in order to crack the roster.
O'Neill was reassigned to Lake Erie of the American Hockey League in Sept. 2007.
