The Colorado Avalanche have signed winger Joel Kiviranta to a new one-year contract. It's reportedly a $1.25 million deal for the Finnish forward, who became an unrestricted free agent last month. Kiviranta is set to begin his third campaign with the Avalanche. He enjoyed a career year in 2024-25, notching 16 goals and 23 points in 79 outings. "Joel is a hard-working, responsible player who has demonstrated he can be a key contributor at five-on-five," said Avalanche general manager Chris MacFarland. "He has been a valuable member of our lineup, and we are excited to have him back for another season." Kiviranta has done a solid job for the Avalanche, but his fantasy upside is limited because he only gets bottom-six minutes on the team.--Taavi PailkRead More News
