Avalanche management and staff offseason moves
Colorado filled a few positions in the Avs' front office and Eagles' coaching staff.
thehockeynews.comI don’t have live access to the latest updates right now, but here’s what’s known about the Colorado Avalanche coach situation as of the most recent reporting I can verify without real-time browsing:
- Jared Bednar has been the long-time head coach of the Colorado Avalanche since 2016 and has led the team to multiple deep playoff runs, including a Presidents’ Trophy season. This establishes his ongoing role as the franchise’s head coach in recent years.[1]
- In 2025, there were reports about coaching staff adjustments within the Avalanche organization, including moves at the AHL affiliate level and additions to the coaching staff, but none of the credible sources I can access at the moment confirm a change at the head coach position for the 2025-26 season.[2][5][7]
- Historically, the Avalanche have pursued various candidates for the head coaching job during past offseasons, but Bednar has remained in place through several seasons, suggesting stability at the top unless a formal announcement has been made recently.[3][4]
Would you like me to fetch the latest updates now and provide a concise, sourced summary with any new developments (e.g., confirmation of Bednar continuing, or a replacement announced)? If you have a preferred source (team site, major outlets, or a date range), I can tailor the results.
