As many of you have pointed out to us, following the recent signing of Tomas Tatar, the top three (3) left wingers for the Avalanche will be very familiar to CH fans!
Indeed, unnoticed, the recent Stanley Cup champions will have the same three left wingers this season as the Canadiens had in 2020-21.
Tatar, 32 years old, was signed as a free agent last September 12th. (1 year/1.5 million dollars)
Drouin, 28 years old, was signed as a free agent last July 1st. (1 year/825,000 dollars)
Lehkonen, 28 years old, was acquired via trade on March 21, 2022, from the Montreal Canadiens, in exchange for Justin Barron and a 2024 second-round pick.
It will be interesting to see how these familiar acquisitions will perform in Colorado this season. Will they lead the Avalanche to the Stanley Cup? That is certainly the goal!
