Mike Chambers of the Denver Post: The Colorado Avalanche will likely be looking to add at least three players in free agency when it opens on Friday.
The Avs have 15 players under contract with about $21.5 million in salary cap space with RFAs Andre Burakovsky and Ryan Graves looking for raises.
Three areas the Avs will be looking to improve on are goaltending, top-six scoring and some depth and toughness up front.
The Avalanche could look to go real big in free agent winger Taylor Hall, who’d fit nicely on their second-line.
