The Avalanche have given Josh Manson a two year contract extension, signing him at just under $4m until 2028. How important is it to keep Manson around, and does this deal make sense for the future of the Avalanche's defense? How much risk are they taking considering Manson's injury history, and does his upside when healthy make it worth the risk? Also, Dave Hakstol is the new Assistant Coach in Colorado. Is this a good hire, and what changes can he bring, most importantly to the Avs powerplay?
