    Chris MacFarland Out As Avs GM, Takes Over in Nashville. Joe Sakic Back In His Old Role...For Now.

    Colorado Avalanche rocked by Chris MacFarland’s surprise exit as GM, jumping to the Nashville Predators as President of Hockey Operations and GM. How will this swift departure impact the Avs' offseason strategy—especially with Joe Sakic stepping back into the GM role and negotiations looming for a key Cale Makar extension? Chris Micieli and Zach Pearson debate whether this move stabilizes the bench for Jared Bednar or creates further uncertainty in the front office.   Key discussion points include MacFarland’s incomplete legacy in Colorado, questions about his draft pick management, and the Avalanche’s depleted prospect pool. The hosts explore potential new GM candidates, organizational culture, and Bednar’s job security in a now pivotal contract year. Plus, a reaction to Cale Makar’s second-place finish in Norris Trophy voting and a fresh season grade for Mackenzie Blackwood round out this can’t-miss Avalanche analysis.   Everydayer Club: If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
