The Colorado Avalanche had an impressive regular season in the NHL 2022-23 season, finishing atop the Central Division and securing the Division title with 51 wins. However, their playoff journey was cut short in the first round as they were defeated by the Seattle Kraken in a seven-game series with a score of 3-4.
Despite the disappointment of an early playoff exit, the Avalanche are determined and focused on making a deep playoff run. Their sights are set on success, and fans are eager to see how they perform in the upcoming season.
For those interested in following the Colorado Avalanche's 2023 campaign, here's a comprehensive overview of their preseason games such as dates, times, TV schedules, opponents, and more.
