Avalanche make a surprising move that leave fans guessing ahead of final preseason game

The Avalanche have made a move giving several of their prospects one final opportunity to prove themselves before the regular season kicks off next week.

The Avalanche have recalled T.J. Tynan, Taylor Makar, Alex Gagne, Sean Behrens, Chase Bradley, Maros Jedlicka, Jayson Megna, and Tristen Nielsen from the Colorado Eagles for their final preseason game against the Dallas Stars.

The Avalanche currently have 29 players on their roster and will need to trim it down to 23 before opening night.

The players who have been recalled for tonight's game will be given another opportunity to demonstrate that they have what it takes to compete and succeed at the NHL level.

The Avalanche are poised to be among the NHL's elite, if not the very best. But every detail counts, and for the Avalanche, that means ensuring the right players fill the right roles, particularly at the bottom of the lineup.

As the team nears the end of preseason, the Avs roster has shown flashes of chemistry, skill, and depth that hint at an exciting season with a real shot of capturing another Stanley Cup championship.

As the Avalanche take the ice for their final preseason game against their divisional rivals, they'll aim to finish strong and end the preseason on a winning note.

The Avalanche's prospects will get one last chance to make an impression before the regular season officially kicks off next week on the road against the Los Angeles Kings.
