At some point, the Colorado Avalanche is going to need to do more to improve the club’s pool of prospects.
It’s just not likely to be this weekend at the 2025 NHL draft, unless general manager Chris MacFarland has a trade or two up his sleeves. The Avs currently have only two picks in this draft — No. 118 in the fourth round and No. 214 in round seven.
“The Avs’ pool might be the weakest in the NHL today,” Scott Wheeler, a staff writer who covers prospects and the draft for The Athletic, said.
