The Colorado Avalanche aren’t going to make a big splash in free agency. GM Joe Sakic has said as much. And why would they — they have their young core set. Plus, the Avs weren’t on John Tavares‘ short list, so we can get over that.
That said, I don’t think the Avalanche have ever stayed pat during Free Agency Frenzy. Even if they don’t make a big splash, they’ll still likely pick up a couple pieces to augment areas of need.
One area I think they’ll attend to is the forward position.
