It’s not the biggest question mark in the lineup, but the Colorado Avalanche has another offseason ahead of trying to figure out the bottom of the defensive depth chart.
The Avs have the entire top four under contract for next season, but who will fill spots 5-8 on the blue line involves some internal options and also uncertainty. Colorado has had a bit of a revolving door at the No. 5 slot recently, going from Bo Byram to Sean Walker to several guys jostling for the spot to Ryan Lindgren just inside the past two seasons.
