Who will the Colorado Avalanche acquire at the draft?
Welcome to the 2025 NHL draft festivities!
This year’s seven- round extravaganza will be held at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles as the NHL tests out their first “decentralized” draft. Hopefully it doesn’t remind of the painful (and lengthy) COVID-19 remote drafts of 2020 and 2021.
While the Colorado Avalanche are not expected to participate in night one, there’s plenty of intrigue in one of the most exciting nights the NHL has to offer during the summer months. As always, trade winds continue to blow and there’s always the possibility of a big transaction which could include any team. Who will the New York Islanders select at first overall?
Get ready for a long second day as the bulk of the draft continues and where the true franchise defining work is conducted. This is where the Avalanche are scheduled to make their first appearance selecting at 118th overall. Another long wait until the near conclusion of the draft for their second and final pick at 214th overall in the seventh round. Will Colorado surprise us and pick up a few more selections or trade away their draft entirely? Tune in and find out.
