Did the Avalanche Get It Right with Jared Bednar and Chris MacFarland?

The Colorado Avalanche fell short in the Western Conference Final and then watched GM Chris MacFarland leave for Nashville. On the surface, it looks like a tough offseason for a team trying to get back to the Stanley Cup Final.

But what if the Avalanche are actually in a better position than they were a year ago? Shap and AP break down Joe Sakic's return as interim GM, Jared Bednar's continued leadership behind the bench, the state of the roster, and why Colorado may be better equipped to contend despite the recent setbacks.

 

Do you think the Avalanche are in a better spot heading into next season, or has the organization taken a step backward?
