    Avalanche Roster Battles: Schwartz, MacKinnon, Makar, and the Race for the Final Spots | Beatline Avalanche
    Aug 22 2026
    The Colorado Avalanche are stacked at center and on the blue line, but the real battles are on the wings and in goal. Jaden Schwartz's arrival adds depth, while Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar anchor the core. Who makes the opening-night roster? Allison and Derek break down the toughest decisions.

    Mackenzie Blackwood and Scott Wedgewood are battling for the crease, while young guns like Fabian Lysell and Danil Gushchin push for roster spots. Veterans like Brent Burns and Josh Manson look to hold off the youth movement. Gabriel Landeskog's return adds another wrinkle to an already crowded forward group.

    In this episode, we predict the roster cuts, name the players trending up and down, and give our take on the biggest surprises of training camp. Plus, we revisit our opening-night prediction against the Kings and double down on the power play finishing top five.

    Avalanche Mailbag: Makar's contract, Schwartz's role, and opening night predictions | Beatline Avalanche
    Aug 21 2026
    In this mailbag episode, we tackle the biggest questions facing the Colorado Avalanche as they sit atop the Central Division. From Cale Makar's looming contract extension to the fit of new signing Jaden Schwartz, we break down the roster battles and the path to another deep playoff run.

    Derek and Allison answer fan questions about the forward group, the defensive pairings, and the goaltending situation. We also discuss the impact of the defenseman market reset and how the Avs can stay ahead of the competition in a loaded Central.

    Plus, a fun hypothetical: which Avalanche legend would we add to this roster? And a lightning round of quick takes on MacKinnon's Hart chances, the power play, and our opening night prediction against the Kings. All that and more on this episode of Beatline.

  • Colorado Avalanche: Makar's Contract, Schwartz Fit, Central Crown | Beatline Avalanche

    Colorado Avalanche: Makar's Contract, Schwartz Fit, Central Crown | Beatline Avalanche
    Aug 20 2026
    The Colorado Avalanche are one week into the offseason, sitting atop the Central Division. In this mailbag episode, we break down Cale Makar's upcoming contract extension, which could reset the defenseman market. We also analyze the signing of Jaden Schwartz and how he fits into the forward group. Plus, we answer fan questions about the roster logjam and make bold predictions for the season ahead.

    We dive deep into Makar's next deal, comparing it to Bowen Byram's $12.5 million AAV and projecting a range of $13.5-$14.5 million. We discuss the ripple effect on Quinn Hughes and the Avalanche's cap structure. Then, we examine where Schwartz slots in—likely as a middle-six winger with a defensive conscience, possibly on the second power play unit. We tackle the 12-centers problem, naming Brock Nelson, Martin Necas, and Alex Newhook as potential wingers or trade chips, with Ryan Johansen as a possible odd man out. In the lightning round, we predict Alexandar Georgiev as the opening night starter, the Avs winning the Central, and Schwartz scoring 18 goals. We also debate the impossible choice between keeping Makar or Nathan MacKinnon, with Makar winning out.

    This episode is for every Avs fan who wants to know what's next for the team. Hosts Allison and Derek break down the biggest storylines with insider knowledge. The Beatline is your daily dose of Colorado Avalanche hockey, so subscribe, rate, and review to stay up to date all season long.
