Summary
The Colorado Avalanche power play is under the microscope after going 0-for-13 since opening night despite starting the 2026 NHL season 4-for-5 with the man advantage. We break down the Avs predictable zone entries, lack of high-danger chances, TJ Hughes role on the top unit, and why Nathan MacKinnon, Cale Makar and Martin Necas havent been able to generate consistent results. With Colorado also allowing two shorthanded goals, is it time for Jared Bednar to shake up PP1 and give players like Artturi Lehkonen, Brock Nelson or Nazem Kadri a bigger role? The Avalanche have too much offensive talent for these struggles to continue, but is the power play actually fixable?
