## Resource

The Colorado Avalanche traded future assets and prospects for a Stanley Cup, proving championship glory outweighs long-term rebuilding. With MacKinnon and Makar still leading the charge, their roster lacks depth in cheaper, younger players — and they have no first-round draft pick until 2029. Prospects like Gulyayev, Shilov, and Nabokov show promise, but the cost of their title run has left them near the bottom in prospect rankings. For now, the banner in the rafters is worth every sacrifice. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
