The regular season is finally upon us, and the banner raising ceremony just around the corner for the Colorado Avalanche. To preview the Avs season from top to bottom, the yearly tradition of bringing on Alex 'Raj' Rajaniemi continues as he sets the record straight on everything to expect from the Avalanche. Can Cale Makar sore to even greater heights this season? What can we expect from the Avs new goalie tandem of Georgiev and Francouz? Who's the Avs biggest threat? Most importantly, can the Avalanche repeat as Stanley Cup Champions?
