This franchise was a success story from the moment the Quebec Nordiques moved to Denver to become the Colorado Avalanche in 1995. The Avs won the Stanley Cup in their first season and repeated as champions in 2000-01. The team then fell on hard times but those dire years afforded the Avalanche several top draft picks. But this is most definitely a rebuilding team and it might be a few years before they’re once again playoff contenders, let alone Stanley Cup considerations.

Colorado Avalance Betting Predictions

Avoid future bets when it comes to the Colorado Avalanche for the foreseeable future. They have a lot of young talent but aren't growing and developing as most people expected. Things have to change for this team to make strides in the right direction. 

And it's going to take time and patience for this current outfit to challenge for a playoff berth in one of the most competitive divisions in the league. The Central Division is busting at the seams with Stanley Cup contenders, including the St. Louis Blues, Chicago Blackhawks and Minnesota Wild. The Nashville Predators aren't far off either, which leaves the Avalanche miles behind. 

10-Game Metrics

If you're intent on finding the best value Avs' bets, take a look at how they're faring over a 10-game span. Even Colorado are bound to go on a hot streak of sorts, or, alternatively, an extended losing streak. These are the opportune moments to get involved on betting either for, or against, Colorado.
