The Colorado Avalanche players have one player — Matt Duchene — left at the World Cup of Hockey because Team Sweden was upset by Team Europe on Sunday. Now all attention turns to the upcoming Colorado Avalanche season as the excitement begins.
Nathan MacKinnon and Erik Johnson will return to the Avs on Monday, according to the Denver Post. Gabe Landeskog, Carl Soderberg and Semyon Varlamov will make their returns to the team on either Wednesday or Thursday.
All of those players are allowed two days off for recovery from the World Cup, according to the Denver Post.
