DENVER – The Colorado Avalanche had a busy start to free agency Wednesday, locking up three veterans and seeing three of the players from this year’s Stanley Cup champion team depart as they start their quest for a repeat.
The Avs first signed defenseman Josh Manson to a four-year contract through the 2025-26 season. Manson, 30, was acquired from Anaheim in March and had seven points in his 22 games with the Avs this season. He also had nearly twice as many hits over those 22 games than any other Avalanche player. Manson recorded eight points – three goals and five assists – during the Stanley Cup playoffs and scored the overtime game winter in Game 1 of th Avs’ series against the Blues.
In the playoffs, Lehkonen had eight goals and six assists, including four game-winning goals and the one that clinched the Stanley Cup. “Darren was an invaluable member of our championship team last season, especially during the playoffs,” MacFarland said. “He brings a high-compete, high-energy level and veteran leadership to our group. We are excited to have him back for another season.”But several other key players on this year’s team departed Colorado, as was expected.
