'''Notes:'''
* <sup>1</sup> The banner features the captain "C" to honor his eighteen years as team captain with both the Avalanche and predecessor Nordiques.

The numbers retired when the franchise was in Quebec – [[J. C. Tremblay]]'s No. 3, [[Marc Tardif]]'s No. 8, [[Michel Goulet]]'s No. 16 and [[Peter Šťastný|Peter Stastny]]'s No. 26 – were entered back into circulation after the move to Colorado.
