The Colorado Avalanche need to have an exceptional 2025-26 NHL season. Following a solid 2024 campaign, the Central Division club aims to strengthen their roster even further by signing a left wing to support Nathan MacKinnon.

The Avalanche last tasted success in the 2021-22 season when they captured the Stanley Cup. Although they have remained contenders since then, the ultimate goal of winning the trophy has yet to be achieved.

Now, the club is focused on assembling an even stronger roster for the upcoming campaign. Their offense has been bolstered with the addition of a veteran left wing, intended to help the team in the next season.
