The Colorado Avalanche start the season 2-0-0 and may welcome back Logan O’Connor and Zachary L’Heureux for upcoming games against Winnipeg and Calgary. Coach Jared Bednar has managed the lineup with 11 forwards and seven defensemen due to their absence. The team's offensive surge includes 14 goals scored and only five allowed in the first two games. O’Connor's return could impact the current line combinations and possibly alter roles for players like Nazem Kadri and Nicolas Roy.
