According to Seravalli's latest report, Pavel Francouz is still grappling with an adductor injury that he sustained during the previous season, necessitating surgery during the offseason. This lingering injury limited Francouz to just 16 games during the 2022-23 season with the Avalanche. Sadly, this injury is just the latest in a series of setbacks in Colorado, as other key players like
Gabriel Landeskog and
Bowen Byram have also struggled with recurring injuries over the past two seasons.
