The Colorado Avalanche were very busy this time around, compared to their only main move last season being a trade for Lars Eller from the Washington Capitals. This time, the Avs made five splashes before the Friday 1:00 p.m. MT deadline.
To quickly go over them once more: the first move was at the beginning of the month when Kurtis MacDermid was dealt to the New Jersey Devils in exchange for a 2024 seventh-round pick and the rights to Zakhar Bardakov.
