The Colorado Avalanche, already navigating a wave of preseason injuries, now face an additional hurdle: a scheduling disruption.
The organization announced that their first exhibition matchup against the Utah Mammoth, initially slated for a 2:30 p.m. puck drop at Denver’s Magness Arena, has been postponed to 5:00 p.m. due to logistical complications. The second contest, originally scheduled for 6:30 p.m. at Ball Arena, has likewise been adjusted, now set to begin at 7:30 p.m.
The revised timetable underscores the challenges teams can encounter even before the regular season commences, as players, coaches, and staff must quickly adapt to shifting circumstances while maintaining focus on performance and preparation.
