Colorado Avalanche coach Jared Bednar remains focused despite clinching the Central Division and top seed in the Western Conference with a 3-1 victory over the St. Louis Blues. This achievement marks the third time in five seasons the Avalanche finish as the conference's top team. Bednar emphasizes the importance of securing the first overall seed for home-ice advantage in the playoffs, stating, "You might as well try and get your home ice." The Avalanche boast a record of 51-16-10 and are on track to potentially win the President's Trophy for the best regular-season record. Goaltender Scott Wedgewood highlights the benefits of playing at home, particularly the supportive atmosphere and the advantage of sleeping in their own beds. Bednar seeks consistency in the coming games to build confidence as the playoffs approach, aiming for another shot at the Stanley Cup following their 2022 championship.
