Avs' Depth, Health Fuel Playoff Rampage

The Avalanche roll into the postseason with a roster that's finally whole, turning their bench depth into a weapon that lesser teams can only dream of. I've seen plenty of Cup runs fizzle when stars get nicked up, but Colorado's healthy lineup means lines three and four can punish tired opponents deep into series. Front offices around the league whisper that this edge could carry them past the first round and beyond, especially with Nathan MacKinnon's engine humming.
