The Colorado Avalanche must prioritize getting off to a strong start in order to avoid playing catchup the rest of the season.
The Colorado Avalanche could lock up a playoff spot with a strong first month of the 2025-26 season. Last season, the Avs got off to a horrendous 0-4 start. That put them behind the eight-ball early.
While the Avalanche caught up with a strong rest of the season, they couldn’t overtake the Dallas Stars for the second spot in the division.
