The future of the Colorado Avalanche will be on display Thursday with the start of rookie camp.

Twenty-seven of the Avs’ best young prospects — 16 forwards, eight defensemen and three goalies — are expected in attendance to prepare for the upcoming NHL rookie tournament held in San Jose, Calif.

The Avalanche will play in three games against rookies from the Kings (3 p.m. Friday), Sharks (8 p.m. Saturday) and Coyotes (11 a.m. Monday). The league is still finalizing options for fans to livestream the games, according to a team source.

The Avalanche’s 10:30 a.m. Thursday practice is open to the public at the team’s practice facility. Below is a roster breakdown examining Colorado’s next wave of talent.
