3 key takeaways from Avalanche preseason (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Colorado Avalanche’s regular season is just days away. Wednesday night, the burgundy and blue will christen the 2026-27 campaign as they take on the Los Angeles Kings. If the offseason felt brief, that's because it was. Under the new collective bargaining agreement, the preseason schedule was shortened by two games. Those missing matchups will now be added to the regular season calendar. On the surface, this seems like a minor change. Indeed, it was something the players wanted. Even so, the
Avalanche have 2 Rookie Camp invites looking to prove their bloodlines run deep (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Colorado Avalanche announced their 2026 Rookie Camp roster late last week. MHS has already highlighted a trio of intriguing players to watch. The spotlight may come from recent draft status or an eye-opening performance at lower levels. Other times, it comes from a familiar surname. Two years ago, for instance, Avalanche diehards might remember Marek Hejduk getting ice at development camp. That was perhaps an extreme case, because his dad, Milan Hejduk, is a Colorado legend.

Massive Makar deal will age well for Avalanche (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Friday evening, the news of Cale Makar's record-breaking contract extension was announced. Almost immediately, the anxiety of whether or not a deal would get done was replaced by a new worry.

Former Avalanche defenseman toasts to a sudsy second chapter (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Before the Colorado Avalanche blue-line was ruled by Cale Makar, there was Tyson Barrie. Barrie was in many ways the prototype for the modern offensive defenseman. Barrie had a wicked slapshot and the kind of on-ice vision that made him a good quarterback for the Avalanche power play. In eight seasons with Colorado, Barrie scored 75 goals and chipped in 232 assists. That adds up to an impressive 307 points total while wearing burgundy and blue. That might look modest next to Makar's all-world st
New Colorado Eagles coach brings championship pedigree (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Colorado Eagles have named Jussi Ahokas as their new head coach. Ahokas will be the third bench boss in as many seasons for Colorado's American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate. If that sounds like a lot of turnover, that's because it is, obviously. Surprisingly though, Ahokas is only the fourth head coach in franchise history. How is it that a club with such relative stability since jumping from the ECHL in 2018-19 is suddenly musical chairs at the top? Western Conference rivals keep hiring th
