This is the latest file in THN.com’s ongoing “Three Burning Questions” series – an analysis of big questions for each NHL team prior to the start of the 2022-23 regular season. In today’s file, we’re posing Three Burning Questions about the defending Stanley Cup champion Colorado Avalanche.

THREE BURNING QUESTIONS FOR THE AVALANCHE IN 2022-23:

They earned the second overall spot in NHL team rankings with a 56-19-7 record, and in the post-season, Colorado lost only four games in four series as they captured the second Stanley Cup in franchise history. And although cap constrictions have forced them to make major changes, the Avalanche still have some of the top talent in the entire league.
