Avs have real uncertainty waiting for them in offseason, but center depth is no longer a big question

It hasn't been a great week for certainty about the future of the Avalanche roster. The Avs already had one key player — captain Gabe Landeskog — whose future contributions remain in question due to a long-term injury. One position on the roster where the Avs have significantly fewer questions than they did at the start of this season is the most important one. Before this season began, the depth chart behind Nathan MacKinnon at center was arguably the biggest unknown about the 2023-24 roster.
