Latest news
Middleton was recalled from AHL Colorado on Monday.
Middleton was sent down by the Avalanche ahead of the regular season, but he'll rejoin the NHL club to provide additional depth ahead of Colorado's back-to-back set that includes a game against Chicago on Monday and a matchup against Columbus on Tuesday. Across his first 11 appearances with the AHL club this year, Middleton has recorded an assist, seven PIM and a plus-2 rating.

Middleton was placed on waivers by the Avalanche on Sunday.
Middleton faced an uphill battle to make the Avs' roster out of training camp, with the team returning the majority of its defense corps from last season. The 28-year-old blueliner had a solid NHL showing in limited action during the 2025-26 campaign, with an assist, four PIM and six hits across three regular-season outings. He's set to open the upcoming campaign with AHL Colorado, marking his seventh season with the Avs' affiliate.

Middleton was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Saturday.
Middleton recorded two hits in 8:55 of ice time in Colorado's 5-0 win over Detroit on Saturday, and his reassignment comes after the conclusion of that game. That brings the Avalanche down to five healthy defensemen on the active roster, so unlessDevon Toews (upper body) is ready to return for Monday's rematch against the Red Wings, the Avalanche will probably need to recall a blueliner before that game.

Middleton logged an assist and two hits in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Senators.
Middleton appeared in his first NHL outing of the season in Wednesday's loss after posting nine points in 39 AHL appearances. The 27-year-old defenseman logged 10:23 of ice time on the third pairing against Ottawa. Middleton was limited to two assists in 41 regular-season outings for the Avalanche in 2024-25, and his stay on the NHL roster could be a short one, as the team has often rotated players in depth roles this year.

Middleton was summoned from AHL Colorado on Tuesday.
Middleton has two goals and nine points in 39 AHL appearances this campaign. He will probably make his 2025-26 debut with the Avalanche against Ottawa on Wednesday. Middleton had two assists, 44 shots on goal, 37 blocked shots and 69 hits in 41 games for Colorado during the 2024-25 NHL regular season.

Middleton was placed on waivers by the Avalanche, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports Sunday.
Middleton spent the majority of the 2024-25 regular season at the top level, playing 41 NHL games against just 17 outings with AHL Colorado. After Sunday's move, the 27-year-old seems primed to start the season at least in the minors, but he should be one of the Avalanche's first call-up options on the blue line.
