The Colorado Avalanche have been fairly active as we approach the opening of the free agency period on July 1st. Since the draft, Joe Sakic has traded away Carl Soderberg and Dominic Toninato while bringing in Andre Burakovsky, Kevin Connauton and some help for the Eagles blue line. The moves haven’t been overly flashy but they are ones that point to the direction Joe wants to take the team this season. Swapping out Soderberg for Burakovsky makes it evident that he clearly wants the Avs to be faster.
