Earlier this off-season, I pointed out that the Colorado Avalanche’s forward depth is a myth. That opinion hasn’t changed, especially not after taking a good look at the right wing. In all honesty, the Avalanche’s right wing depth chart is ridiculous.
The Colorado Avalanche lost Ryan O’Reilly and Jamie McGinn, but added Carl Soderberg, Mikhail Grigorenko and Blake Comeau, drafted Mikko Rantanen, signed Andreas Martinsen, and have Joey Hishon, Freddie Hamilton and Borna Rendulic waiting in minors.
Soderberg, Grigorenko and Hishon are left-shooting centers, Hamilton a right-shooting one. Comeau is a right-shooting winger, but prefers the left side.
