A first-round exit by the Colorado Avalanche in the Stanley Cup playoffs last season was a disappointing result for a team with so much skill, speed, and a cup win just the season before. But injuries played a significant role in their underperformance, and if the team stays healthy in the 2023-24 NHL season, look for them to go on a deep playoff run.
They have some of the best offensive talent in the NHL, led by Nathan MacKinnon, Mikko Rantanen, and defenseman Cale Makar. Even without their captain, Gabriel Landeskog, who is recovering from another knee surgery and will miss the entire 23-24 campaign, they have the top-heavy talent to beat teams. Their defense is also world-class, with a top pairing of Makar and Devon Toews. And in goal, they have Alexandar Georgiev who finished last season with a very solid .919 save percentage and a 2.53 goals-against average, while racking up 40 wins.
