The Colorado Avalanche are a team that’s in the middle of what we all hope is a successful rebuild. As part of that rebuild, the team is going to try out players for short amounts of time. It’s also going to cut existing players who don’t fit the mold.

Here are five players we probably won’t see playing for the Avalanche next season.
