Colorado’s AHL affiliate just hired Finnish coach Jussi Ahokas, a rising name with OHL pedigree and NHL aspirations — but don’t panic for Jared Bednar. This move is more about grooming talent than a threat to his job, especially after last season’s playoff collapse. With the Avs’ core aging and Makar’s big contract looming, tough decisions are coming. Ahokas, who interviewed with Toronto, likely sees this as a stepping stone — but don’t overlook David Karl, who turned down NHL gigs waiting for the Avalanche’s top spot. If things go south, Karl might be the one Bednar has to watch out for.
