CHOO CHOO. Val Nichushkin is the key to Colorado’s success coming in the clutch on multiple fronts in a shootout win over Arizona. With the Avs depth finally fleshing out the Avs are a tough team to beat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfuTJlR2RMk
When both Cale Makar and Nathan MacKinnon are popping it off it’s hard for any team to keep up. The Avs’ depth is quickly becoming apparent when they are actually healthy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oX7K4Ht243M
Death, Taxes, and the Colorado Avalanche beating Connor Ingram in overtime. Cale Makar with the ultimate game-winner followed the script to a T in a game where the Avs played much better than the scoreboard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tE1Bbq_kH4
It was a beautiful spring-like day in Denver, and we had some afternoon hockey to go with it! The Colorado Avalanche came into today’s matchup with the Arizona Coyotes looking to bounce back after a lackluster performance two nights ago against the LA Kings. It’s been such an interesting season for the Avs, in terms of their results. At times…
The Colorado Avalanche came out of the Christmas break on their heels, and let a weaker Arizona team get the better of them. With critical issues in their own zone they never had a chance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CED5Z3uh4_Y
The Avs look poised to dominate the Central division for a third straight year but have any of the other teams closed the gap? And who will win the Connor Bedard sweepstakes? https://youtu.be/DrNse8Yv9W8
Sometimes games get away from you. The Avs drop a winnable one against the Arizona Coyotes but it’s a good reminder that there are two teams on the ice trying to win every night. https://youtu.be/OSxlgzMwa7Q
We talked on the DNVR Avalanche pregame show about how there was an expectation that the Colorado Avalanche would come out looking for some revenge after having their franchise record-setting home win streak come to an end at the hands of these very same Arizona Coyotes. It’s easy to look at this matchup and think, “oh yeah, this will be…...
The Avs made short work of Arizona in the SEGABAB, leaning on their top-end talent to punish the Coyotes heavily. With clean defensive play, this was one of the most straightforward wins of the season. https://youtu.be/qGwv4mHG458
In my opinion, what made the game-changing Too Many Men call earlier this week in Nashville extra disappointing was that the Colorado Avalanche went into that game with a chance to claim the top spot in the Central Division had they won. They let that opportunity slip away but had another chance this weekend to climb to the top of…...
The Avs win a game in which they look dominant on paper but via the eye test left a lot to be desired. While the Avs can afford to cut corners against a team like Arizona it’s not something they should make a habit of. https://youtu.be/ahwt5oBvYIY
Well, the Avs won again. Their home winning streak is now up to 13 after they won a more-exciting-than-expected shootout contest against the Arizona Coyotes to cap off a 4-3 win that had a little of everything in it. Special teams played a major role as Colorado’s atrocious penalty kill finally stepped up as the Avs killed off two minutes…...
The Avs take home a win in one of their worst analytical games of the season. Algorithms, functions and data are all great tools but the only thing that matters in the end is the scoreboard. https://youtu.be/pvdukyAe6Lc
Tonight’s game featured: A scrum in front of the Colorado net that resulted in an on-ice call of no goal, which was reviewed for several minutes and determined that it was a good goal for Arizona despite no camera angles showing the puck ever crossing the net That goal was immediately challenged by Colorado for goaltender interference, which was granted…...
The NHL Trade Deadline is right around the corner and the Colorado Avalanche have some needs they will be looking to address during the deadline and they have a few targets they’ll be taking a look at from a few different teams. The DNVR Avalanche crew finish this seven-part video series with talk about multiple teams and multiple players. https://youtu.be/muNF5kg26TE
The Avs are better than you. They know it, you know it, all the fans newly back in the arena know it. This is the type of game that makes teams question their entire existence. https://youtu.be/-RTeP9ZwCiU
The Avalanche experience some Deja vu as they find a way to lose with a fresh third-string goaltender in net. A valiant performance from the Avs top line is not enough to overcome the teams mistakes. https://youtu.be/QjaMZPFERFU
After a nine-game homestand that saw the Avalanche go 7-1-1 and come within a couple of bounces of going a clean 9-0, Colorado hit the road again on Monday night. It had been a while since the Avs had been somewhere other than the friendly surroundings of Ball Arena and for the first ten minutes or so, they certainly looked…...
The Avs dominate the Coyotes top to bottom for the second game in a row but it takes a Man Rocket to score the game winning goal. https://youtu.be/oct87xEAKes
Remember the game two days ago? The 3-2 loss to the Arizona Coyotes despite outplaying them in every facet imaginable? Tonight’s dominant Avalanche effort was essentially a copy and paste repeat, even down to all of Arizona’s goals being deflected off Avalanche players. But when you produce games that look like this: …and that game causes an opposing coach to…...
