Colorado Avalanche’s Full Order Of Selections In 2026 NHL Entry Draft

With the 2026 NHL Entry Draft just a week away, the NHL has revealed the seven-round selection process for this year’s draft, which will be held in Buffalo, the first time since 2016.

As of writing, the Avalanche have nine draft picks heading into the draft, although they will not select until the second day when they select in the third round. That pick just came over when they traded Ross Colton to the Nashville Predators; the deal also included a third-round pick next year.
