Colorado Avalanche Top 25 Under 25: Recapping the 2024 list

The future boils down to these 25 names.

Another year in the books and we have our completed 2024 version of the Colorado Avalanche Top 25 players Under 25 years of age. It was the first year in a long time a prospect headlined this list and hopefully that doesn’t last too long as Cal Ritchie transitions to NHL player sooner than later. The nine-pick 2024 draft class helped round out the selections and even gave us a proper honorable mentions list. A handful of NHL debuts are expected, more on that later, and hopefully even a couple graduations to the Avalanche.
