It has been an eventful and stressful nearly 24 hours for the Colorado Avalanche and their fans. On Friday night, elite forward Mikko Rantanen was traded to the Carolina Hurricanes for forwards Martin Necas and Jack Drury as part of a three-team deal including the Chicago Blackhawks.

Artturi Lehkonen scored the game-winning goal with 14.7 seconds left in regulation as the Avalanche beat the New York Rangers 5-4 at Madison Square Garden on Sunday. Cale Makar scored twice, Martin Necas posted his first two points with the Avs and Nathan MacKinnon added a pair of assists.

Appearing on "Frankly Speaking" on Jan. 18, 2024, MacFarland told Frank Seravalli that Landeskog was expected to miss 12–16 months, but the captain's absence has now stretched to over 20 months since he last appeared in a game.

Colorado Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar issued an honest message to Nathan MacKinnon, Cale Makar, and the rest of the team after a 3-2 overtime loss against the Winnipeg Jets.

Jared Bednar had a blunt, one-word summation after Colorado rallied for a 3-2 overtime win against the New York Rangers on Tuesday night. “Unimpressive,” the Avalanche coach said. Bednar's beef: His team had too many passengers and not enough contributors.

Jack Drury, one of the key acquisitions in the Colorado Avalanche's major trade last week with the Carolina Hurricanes and Chicago Blackhawks, scored his first goal in his new uniform as his club outlasted the New York Rangers 5-4 on Sunday afternoon.

Jared Bednar got hired to coach the Avalanche just as the NHL entered its last best-on-best tournament in the 2016 World Cup. So in a sense, the 4 Nations Faceoff is uncharted territory for him.

The race is between the Broncos’ Sean Payton, the Nuggets’ Michael Malone and the Avs’ Jared Bednar, all of whom own a title on their resume.

Avalanche forward Artturi Lehkonen scored the game-winning goal with 15 seconds left in the 5-4 victory over the New York Rangers on Sunday afternoon. The two points put Colorado ahead of Minnesota for the Central Division’s No.

It’s been more than 48 hours and two games since the blockbuster trade that shipped Mikko Rantanen to the Carolina Hurricanes and brought Martin Necas and Jack Drury to Colorado. We heard from Avs players but what has Rantanen said about it?

Ryan Warsofsky is getting advice from Jared Bednar. The South Carolina Stingrays alumni have been in the same boat, after all. In 2016-17, Bednar, his first NHL head coaching job, took over the rebuilding Colorado Avalanche.

Martin Necas had two assists, nearly scored twice himself and excelled on the top line. Jack Drury scored a goal and centered a new-look depth line while all 12 Avs forwards played more than 10 minutes, a departure from the usual top-heavy distribution.
