To say the last few weeks have been a whirlwind for Colorado Avalanche forward Nikolai Kovalenko might be an understatement. One night, he was helping the Colorado Eagles keep their season alive, scoring the opening goal in a game they needed to win (and eventually did).
This Colorado Avalanche team looks good. Really good. If you have plans for late May or early June, you might want to delay them a little longer, because this team might still be going at that point.
Nikolai Kovalenko made his long-anticipated Colorado Avalanche debut in the team’s 5-1 victory over the Winnipeg Jets in Game 4 of their Western Conference first-round series on Sunday afternoon.
If you let the Colorado Avalanche start rolling, you’re in trouble, and right now, the Winnipeg Jets don’t seem to have an answer for them. The Avalanche have the Jets on the brink of elimination, and if you ask me, they could have very easily swept this series.
The Nikolai Kovalenko era is about to begin with the Colorado Avalanche. In a surprise move, Kovalenko was added to the Colorado roster this morning, and is scheduled to make his NHL debut in Game Four against the Winnipeg Jets.
The wait appears to be over, as Nikolai Kovalenko is set to make his debut in North America on Tuesday night. How much longer until we see him in a Colorado Avalanche uniform?
I held off on this final road trip for the Colorado Avalanche and stayed back in Denver, but I did notice the team had blocked off some ice at Family Sports this week.
Barring something changing in the next 24 hours, it does seem like the Colorado Avalanche should be running it back on Saturday night with the same lineup they had against the New York Rangers.
Nikolai Kovalenko isn’t with the Colorado Avalanche right now, but you can expect to see him before the end of the season. After the Avalanche finished practice on Thursday, Jared Bednar met with the media ahead of the five game homestand for his team.

With the trade deadline in the rearview mirror, any changes the Colorado Avalanche wants to make to their roster must be made within the organization. From players returning from IR/LTIR or signed players currently with other teams like the AHL Colorado Eagles or other leagues.

The Colorado Avalanche added a lot of bodies up front over the last week, but they’re about to toss one more forward into the equation. And he’s real wild card.
Chris MacFarland was a very, very busy man on Wednesday afternoon, but the Colorado Avalanche general manager still made time to visit with the media after making two big trades earlier in the day.
Success doesn’t come cheap. The Colorado Avalanche have one of the worst prospect pools in the NHL, which only improved thanks to two solid late picks in the first round of the 2023 NHL Draft.
The Colorado Avalanche signed Nikolai Kovalenko, a top prospect, to a two-year entry-level contract on Tuesday. Kovalenko, 23, is expected to continue to play for Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod in the Kontinental Hockey League in the 2023-24 season.
