TAMPA - For the first time in over 20 years, the Colorado Avalanche have won the Stanley Cup.

The Avalanche won the 2022 championship series 4-2 in the end.

Colorado defenseman Cale Makar has been named the Stanley Cup MVP, winning this year's Conn Smythe Trophy. He is the third Avalanche player to win the award; Patrick Roy won it back in 2001 and current Avalanche GM Joe Sakic won it back in 1996.
