Colorado acquired Chrona, a 2026 third-round pick and a 2027 third-round pick from Nashville on Tuesday in exchange for Ross Colton and Isak Posch.
Chrona signed a two-year contract with Brynas IF of the SHL on May 19. It's unclear if the Avalanche intend to retain his NHL rights. He posted a 9-11-3 record with a 2.94 GAA and an .894 save percentage across 25 regular-season appearances with AHL Milwaukee in 2025-26.
