Jonathan Drouin was one of the best stories of the Avalanche season, putting up career numbers on a 900k contract and becoming an intergral part of the Avalanche's top six down the stretch. After signing a deal to stick around for another year, can Drouin top what he did last year while staying with MacKinnon and getting top powerplay minutes? Will he stick around past this season?

Val Nichushkin is a complicated topic after not being available for the second straight playoff, but being nothing short of fantastic when he was on the ice this season. First and foremost, we still wish Val the best with the Player Assistance program, and hope to see him on the ice again. As one of the most important members of the forward core, can the Avs still succeed if Val is not available? How do they proceed with this situation next season?

Devon Toews is always the model of consistency year over year, and this last season was no different. Even with some low moments, Toews still took care all of the little details that makes one of the Avs most valuable players. After signing a seven year extension to remain an Av, can Toews keep up his top pair form with Cale Makar as the best defensive pair in the NHL in the long term?

In his first season with the Avalanche, Ross Colton performed at a decent level for a third line center, with room to improve. However, after some trade rumors around the draft, does Colton still fit the vision of this team after Mittelstadt's acquisition at the deadline? How much does his contract come into the conversation when discussing his future?

After an early season injury, Artturi Lehkonen wasted no time returning back to form and being the ultimate utility player in the Avs top six. Even better, Lehkonen dominated in the playoffs, as he's done every year since joining the Avalanche. Is he in the conversation for most underrated player in the NHL? Is there anything that this guy does wrong?

One year into a six year contract, Miles Wood proved to be a serviceable bottom six forward with incredible speed that contributed to a solid third line, but also an incredibly streaky player for long stretches of the season. Entering year two, can he continue to work on the third line and enforce the Avs style of play? Is the length of Wood's really a concern?

After a breakout season that saw Logan O'Connor's best season ever in Colorado, can he replicate that season again after a season ending injury and going into a contract year? Is it at all possible for the Avs to be able to keep him after this coming year?

Sam Girard is so back. After coming back from the player assistance program, Sam Girard turned into the Avs most reliable defenseman on a nightly basis even if the numbers don't jump off the page. Can Girard prove once again this coming season how important he is to the Avs defense?

Alex Georgiev was easily the most frustrating part of the season, finishing with an .897 and forcing the team into several bad spots, but saved his job with a great playoff run against Winnipeg and Dallas to remain as the starter for next year. With two seasons of polar opposites, what can be expected in Georgiev's third, and most likely final year in Colorado going into the final year of his deal? On the other side, Justus Annunen stablized the backup goalie position late in the season and gave the Avs some much needed relief in goal, but can he take another step this year into full time NHL backup and make a case for starter as soon as next season.

It wasn't the busiest offseason for new additions to this Avalanche roster, but the players that were brought in all could have a part keeping the Avs as Stanley Cup contenders this season. Erik Brannstrom is the most exciting addition of the bunch, with a high ceiling and a lots of room to grow into an everyday defenseman, but is Colorado the best spot for him to grow into that role? Oliver Kylington could be a safer option as an everyday defenseman, can he get back to his 2022 season form? Calvin De Haan fits the role for a bottom pair defenseman perfectly, is his availability a concern? Finally, can Parker Kelly blossom into a fan favorite for rougher style in a bottom six role?

It's the final episode of the season review/preview series, as now we look at players that have moved on to other teams. Bo Byram heads off to Buffalo at the deadline for Mittelstadt. Ryan Johansen couldn't have been shipped out to Philadelphia fast enough. We say goodbye and farewell to fan favorite veterans Andrew Cogliano and Jack Johnson after three successful seasons, and remember them as the champions they are. None of the trade deadline rentals stuck around, is losing Walker, Duhamie, and Trenin a loss? Also, is Zach Parise really done?

Logan O'Connor is going nowhere! LOC has signed a six year extension to remain an Av for the foreseeable future at $2.5M a season, which is more than reasonable. We'll list all the reasons why this deal and LOC himself kick ass, and how the third line is shaping up for the future. How far behind could a Mikko Rantanen extension be? Also, training camp is underway, and the Avs are prepping for their first preseason game. What are the most important storylines as the season begins? Finally, is the NHL over-expanding?
