Colorado Avalanche
The Avalanche Have MASSIVE Decisions To Make For Next Season…
Yeah, the 2022 cup team might be finished after a single season. Given the numerous injuries, flaky performances, and just general flat play that led to the 1st round shock defeat to the Seattle Kraken, the Colorado Avalanche are seriously looking at a mini retool for next season. I guess Joe Sakic and Chris MacFarland’s
NHL Playoffs: HUGE UPSETS As Both Kraken & Panthers Win, Advance To Round 2
What a night for upsets, bracket breaking, and really unhappy betters. The NHL playoffs once again showed why it is the best playoff in North American sports as the Seattle Kraken and the Florida Panthers completed MASSIVE UPSET victories to advance to the Second Round. This is definitely not a year for the frontrunners. In
Should The Avalanche Be Worried About MISSING The Playoffs?
I’m starting to think the defending champions will be defending their Stanley Cup on their couches. The Colorado Avalanche have had a season mired by injuries and inconsistency, leaving their playoff hopes in real jeopardy as they cling to the 3rd Central Division spot. Injuries truly are the bane of all championship contending and winning
The NHL Trade Deadline Week Has Had Good, Bad, And Downright Ugly Moves…
Some of these moves really make me question how these GMs have gotten their jobs. The NHL trade deadline week has inspired the GMs from all around the league to embrace their inner The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly characters with the moves they pulled off. Who doesn’t love The Good, The Bad, And
What Was Jack Johnson Doing? Avalanche 5, Blackhawks 2
Is this guy serious? During the Colorado Avalanche’s 2022 Stanely Cup banner raising ceremony last night, Jack Johnson joined the celebrations and team photos…even though he now plays for the Chicago Blackhawks. Is it just me or is this a big ‘no-no’? If you leave the team that had just won the Stanley Cup, regardless
Nathan MacKinnon Gets Record 8-Year, $100.8M Extension With Avalanche
There’s no player around today who’s earned this extension more than him. The Avalanche have made it official as they announced today that they’ve signed Nathan MacKinnon to an 8-year, $100.8M extension, making him the highest paid player in NHL history. This is what you deserve when you famously take a team-friendly contract in order
MacKinnon FINALLY Shows Up, Colorado Wins The Stanley Cup!
For the first time in 21 years, when Patrick Roy, Joe Sakic, Peter Forsberg, and Ray Bourque were all suiting up for the Avs against the Devils in the 2001 Stanely Cup final, the Colorado Avalanche have won the Stanley Cup. Overcoming a raging Tampa Bay comeback, the Avalanche have knocked off the two-time defending
Colorado Shouldn’t Panic Yet, Though They Need To Win Next Game
Colorado blew their chance to end their 21-year Stanley Cup drought tonight, losing 3-2 to the Lightning to cause the series to head back to Tampa Bay at 3-2. Still, the Avs should not been panicking about slipping up to the two-time defending Stanley Cup Champions as they still are in the driving seat in
Lightning Live To Fight Another Day, Series Goes Back To Tampa For Game 6
It seems that the Lightning are not going to go down without a fight as they scrapped a difficult win against the Colorado Avalanche to get the series to 3-2. Still, the need the Hockey Gods to shine down more luck on them if they want to win the Stanley Cup for a third time
Colorado Edges Past Bolts, Takes 3-1 Series Lead
At long last we finally had a close, gritty game in the Stanley Cup Finals. And it was none other than the returning Nazem Kadri to bury a fantastic snip under Vasilevskiy’s arm to win Game 4, giving Colorado the 3-1 series lead. Unlike Game 1, where Tampa Bay came storming back after going down
Avalanche May Have Lost, Though The Series Is Still In Their Hands
Tonight was not the Avalanche’s night. That much was clear. The Lightning came out as wounded animals, as everyone expected, and they definitely took the game to the Avalanche early on. However, the Avalanche still could have won this game. A controversial disallowed offside goal from Valeri Nichushkin actually preceded the Avalanche’s first goal, which
Lightning Clinical, Beat Avalanche To Stay Competitive In Finals
Well, well, well. It seems the Lightning players heard everything bad said about them the past few days. And they took it personally as the Lightning held off the Avalanche’s high-powered offense to win 6-2, keeping this series still in reach. It is about time they decided to show the world why they are the
Colorado Was Ruthless Against Bolts, Have Stanley Cup In Their Grasp
Colorado must have heard my criticism against their Game 1 performance as tonight they showed the Tampa Bay Lightning absolutely no mercy. Putting up 7 goals against that Tampa defense and Andrei Vasilevskiy is not easy. Doing it in a 7-0 domination is unheard of. The Avalanche had the chances last game to go up
Avalanche DISMANTLE Tampa Bay, Go Up 2-0
I did not see that coming. The Colorado Avalanche completely dismantled the Tampa Bay Lightning 7-0. Yes, you read that right. 7-0. I can’t believe that Tampa Bay played EVEN WORSE in Game 2 than they did in Game 1. And they were definitely bad in Game 1. There was not one point in this
Colorado Needs To Be More Ruthless If They Are Going To Win The Cup
The Colorado Avalanche managed to defeat the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-3 in overtime as Andre Burakovsky slapped a one-timer passed Andrei Vasilevskiy to win Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals. But, from an Avalanche perspective, Burakovsky’s overtime heroics should never have had to happen. The game should have been won far sooner. There is
Colorado Overcomes Lightning Surge To Win Game 1
That was a lot closer than it should have been. Colorado defeats Tampa Bay 4-3 in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals, but it really should have been a lot easier for the Avalanche. The Avalanche started this game on diesel fuel, flying everywhere on the ice. They were first to lose pucks, first
