On Monday, the Colorado Avalanche released an update regarding how home games will work at Ball Arena for the upcoming 2020-21 NHL season.
At this time, they will be unable to host any fans due to the current state and local guidelines in place relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. Although they will not be able to have any fans at this time, the team and Kroenke Sports & Entertainment said that they will continue to work with state and local authorities in hopes of returning fans to the arena in the safest way possible.

The Avalanche were recently realigned into a new division, the West Division. This new division consists of 8 teams (Minnesota Wild, San Jose Sharks, Vegas Golden Knights, Anaheim Ducks, Arizona Coyotes, Los Angeles Kings, Colorado Avalanche and St. Louis Blues).
It is the same situation for the Carolina Hurricanes. A social media post from the team states it will be unable to host any fans for at least the start of the season.
