Though I’m not too surprised, the Colorado Avalanche have sent T.J. Hensik to St. Louis for prospect Julian Talbot. The newcomer notched 32 points last season (17g/15a) for the Peoria Rivermen, the Blues AHL affiliate.

Well, kids, it’s all over. The Chicago Blackhawks have won the Stanley Cup in Game 6 vs. the Philadelphia Flyers.
That’s All, Folks!

The San Jose Sharks came out the victors in Game 6 against the Avalanche. This was a team the critics said would end the season in last place. It didn’t happen, the Avs went on to be the 8th place team in the Western Conference and have a chance at the Stanley Cup. The critics then said the young team from Colorado would get swept by the “powerhouse” Sharks in the first round. Again, didn’t happen. The Avalanche exited in Game 6 and blew all the critics away.
Sharks Handed Game on a Silver Platter

The Colorado Avalanche, also known as the underdogs, have been giving the San Jose Sharks a run for their money. The Avs have had to transition their game to nearly 100% defense to shut down the Sharks top two lines and they’ve been doing a good job of it. Unfortunately tonight in the Shark Tank, they were never once called for too many men on the ice. The Sharks had 9 total on ice at all times, not including Evgeni Nabokov, and four of them were wearing black and white stripes.
Sharks Bite Back in OT

I’ll start off by saying that the better team didn’t win tonight. The Sharks pulled an over time win against the Avalanche with a shot from Joe Pavelski, screened by an Avalanche defenseman. It was a disappointing loss seeing how the Avalanche played worlds better than their OT win on Sunday night, getting more shots on goal and playing better defense. In fact, the OT win was the only even strength goal of the game.
Sharks Shoot Themselves in the Foot

This had to have been one of the most insane games at The Can this season. We saw Craig Anderson shut out the San Jose Sharks. We saw the Sharks put the puck on Andy 51 times and Andy blocked them all. That’s one short of his all time career record. The fans in Denver saw three scoreless periods and 51 seconds of overtime before something quite odd happened.
What’s a Guy Gotta Do?

It’s only two games into the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. We’ve seen upsets from both Conferences and we’ve seen teams come back to tie the series. Last night we saw the Colorado Avalanche fall in overtime to the San Jose Sharks to tie the series at one apiece. The officiating for both games has seemed to swing in San Jose’s favor and the Avalanche have to work twice as hard to win.
