Jason Chen and Michael Amato discuss the Avs' depth, including where Jonathan Drouin will play in the lineup, the over/under for Ryan Johansen and, hopefully, a full season from Bowen Byram.
As part of the Central Division preview, the Sleepers and Keepers fantasy hockey podcast hosts Jason Chen and Michael Amato discuss some burning questions regarding the Colorado Avalanche.
Jonathan Drouin has a big hill to climb to return to fantasy-relevant status. He's re-united with former Halifax Mooseheads teammate Nathan MacKinnon, though they last played seven years ago at the World Cup with Team North America.

Bowen Byram has had a promising career derailed by injuries. If he's healthy, he's worth rostering, but that's a big if.
