Colorado Avalanche prospect report: CHL opening weekend

The CHL season kicked off, and the BCHL has been playing for a couple weeks now so most of the Avalanche prospects are playing games now.

I’ll put out this prospect recap weekly, on Monday or Tuesday’s. Hopefully you’ll find it helpful at tracking these kids.

In news, Travis Barron will captain the Ottawa 67’s again this season as they celebrate their 50th anniversary.
