* The Colorado Avalanche had a great regular season, scoring lots of goals and letting in very few. But they still lost in the playoffs, which means just scoring a lot doesn't always win the big games.
* The team's goalies had amazing numbers last year, but it might be hard for them to do that well again. If the other players don't play as well, the goalies could be in trouble.
* Even though they have great players like MacKinnon and Makar, the team is getting older, and their chance to win the Stanley Cup might be getting smaller. They need to figure out their goalie situation and make sure their new players can help them win in the playoffs.
