The Colorado Avalanche capped off their regular season with a 2-0 win against the Seattle Kraken, setting a new franchise record of 121 points. This surpasses their previous record of 119 points from the 2021-22 season. The Avalanche's strong performance was highlighted by their goaltenders, Mackenzie Blackwood and Scott Wedgewood, who earned the William M. Jennings Trophy for allowing the fewest goals—196 in total. This marks just the second time in franchise history that they have led the league in both goals scored and goals allowed in a season, a feat last accomplished by the Vancouver Canucks in 2010-11. Wedgewood's impressive stats include a league-leading save percentage of .921 and a goals-against average of 2.02. Nathan MacKinnon also made headlines by winning the Maurice “Rocket” Richard Trophy for leading the NHL with 53 goals, becoming the first Avalanche player to achieve this since Milan Hejduk in the 2002-03 season. As the Avalanche prepare for the playoffs, they aim to replicate their past success and compete for another Stanley Cup title.
