In this week's mailbag of reader questions, Casey answers questions about the Avalanche's defense--what do the stats say, who could play on their off-hand, who should stay and who should go?
Well well well, I said at the start of the Avalanche’s newly-finished road trip that there might be some big changes if they didn’t manage to string some wins together. So of course, they end the trip with a narrowly positive record of 4-3. Whether that’s enough to stave off any roster shakeups is anybody’s guess. One of the…...
Prior to receiving the call from the Avalanche to return to Denver, defenseman Zach Redmond took some time out of his day to chat with us about his season thus far, the impact of starting in the AHL after having been an NHL regular last season, and what his role is on the team in San Antonio.

As was the case yesterday, this breakdown features an average grade between all 6 BSN Avalanche writers. The draft is not graded because it is simply too early to accurately assess the…...
One of the saving graces of being realistically eliminated from the playoff race with two weeks left to play is the opportunity to give some players a chance a team normally otherwise would not be willing to provide. Such is the case of the Colorado Avalanche tonight in giving yet another opportunity to backup goaltender Reto Berra, whose play this…...
Sports are filled with hyperbole. Everywhere you look, you’re seeing the “GREATEST TEAM OF ALL-TIME” or a rough equivalent.
