MHH Roundtable: The Colorado Avalanche get ready for the stretch run

The Colorado Avalanche enter their final month of regular season play in a great position in the standings and with good momentum. However their path continues to find adversity along the way with Joonas Donskoi, Philipp Grubauer and Bowen Byram on the COVID-19 protocol list and a one-week pause to the schedule. Preparing for the playoffs is a theme that will define the next several weeks after the Avalanche return to the ice.

General Manager Joe Sakic was fairly busy at the trade deadline, picking up old friends Patrik Nemeth and Carl Soderberg in addition to adding Devan Dubnyk and Jonas Johansson for goaltending depth.
