## Resource

The Colorado Avalanche enter the season with high hopes and a stacked roster, but their championship window hinges on avoiding key pitfalls. With MacKinnon and Makar leading the charge, injuries to vital players like Schwartz could expose depth issues, especially since they kept cap space for deadline moves. Secondary scoring remains a question mark—without reliable contributors behind the stars, opponents will focus on containing them. And while young talent is expected to rise, their development is unpredictable; if they falter, veterans may be overworked. One misstep could turn a Stanley Cup run into an early exit.
