SAN JOSE, Calif. – From an Avalanche perspective, the record is 2-15-6. From a San Jose Sharks perspective, the record is 21-2-0. Either way for the Avs, the record stinks like a dead skunk in the middle of the road. The Avs have won two games at the SAP Center, formerly H-P Pavilion, formerly the San Jose Arena, since March…...
When in doubt on what can ail a hockey team offensively, no one better to quote than the Great One. “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take,” Wayne Gretzky supposedly once said. Someone should plaster that quote all over the walls of the Avalanche dressing room before Game 2 against the Calgary Flames Saturday night. A gettable game,…...
Every year there are defining moments throughout the season that people get attached to because they were either so unexpected or so spectacular (or both) that they couldn’t help but be etched into your memories forever. When I think back to last year and Colorado’s unexpected run to the postseason, I obviously remember the 10-game winning streak and the game…...
After the process dominating the results for a while and goaltending being the primary face of their issues, the Avalanche rolled into Chicago tonight and flipped the script. In what was their worst defensive showing in quite a while, Semyon Varlamov once again owned the United Center. Varlamov’s stellar performance continues a strong run from him as his resurgence has…...
TORONTO – I’ve covered a lot of Avalanche teams, but I haven’t seen one that wanted to win a January regular-season game quite as much as the one that played Monday night here in the Big Smoke. The final from Scotiabank Arena: Avalanche 6, Toronto Maple Leafs 3. Before the game, as I was walking through the corridor by the…...
Carl Soderberg, like just about everybody and everything associated with the Colorado Avalanche in 2016-17, had a terrible time of things. Six goals, 14 points in 80 games, minus-26, for a 48-point team. Not exactly great value the Avs got for their $4.75 million they paid the Swedish centerman. Thankfully for Carl, things got a lot better in 2017-18. Let’s…...
Avalanche make changes to lineup for game with LA Kings.
The Colorado Avalanche rolled through the past week, crushing some old demons, and climbing their way to the first Wild Card spot. While ‘Nate the Great’ MacKinnon continued to rack up points and garner national media attention, the Avalanche faithful feasted on the savory tears of old foes. The roller coaster ride plunges on, with a lot more highs than…...

The Colorado Avalanche beat the New York Islanders 6-1 on New Year's Eve
The Colorado Avalanche dug deep this past week and ended up with a respectable .500 week. They dug a deep hole during their disappointing homestand, finished it off with an unexpected loss to the struggling Buffalo Sabres, then took their show on the road where they dug out of their disastrous homestand and went on to win two of three…...
The Avalanche started a four-game Eastern road trip Thursday at Amalie Arena in Tampa. The Avs found out just why the Lightning is the NHL’s best team to this point, losing 5-2. How did Avs players fare individually? Let’s find out, in some post-game grades: Mikko Rantanen (D) – He was absolutely furious after the game, throwing some curse words around…...
In the latest installment of the Avalanche Weekly Breakdown, BSN Denver's Adrian Dater and Allie Monroy discuss the reasons behind the Avs' great record so far at the Pepsi Center. With two of the next three games at home, can the Avs keep up their great home-cooking ways?
Carl Soderberg looked like one miserable person last season, and why not? He suffered through the worst statistical season of his career on the worst team in Colorado Avalanche team history (not including Quebec). Talking to Soderberg had all the charm and comfort of a Mike Wallace “60 Minutes” interview. But there was an actual smile on Soderberg’s face again…...
The Colorado Avalanche flew off for a Swedish adventure after the big Duchene trade and while they didn’t earn as many points as they wanted, there was plenty of good to go with the bad in the past week. THE GOOD 1. The Colorado Avalanche showed they could still play a competitive game without Matt Duchene. Is this important? Definitely.…...
