The Colorado Avalanche appear to be a defensive powerhouse entering the 2024-25 season.
Earlier this week, Colorado announced they had signed 27-year-old defenseman Oliver Kylington to a one-year, $1.05 million contract for next season.
It’s a low-risk, high-reward scenario for the Avalanche. Kylington is the quintessential Avalanche defenseman, a speed demon eager to jump into the action. If you’re looking for a Niklas Kromwall type of fellow, this is not your guy, but at the price, it’s a reasonable gamble to take.
Oliver Kylington, signed 1x$1.1M by COL, is a puck-moving offensive defenceman.
