If you have been paying attention at all to the Phoenix Coyotes situation, which I haven’t really – they’ve again been discussing selling and potential relocation versus Gelndale, AZ fronting the money for the NHL to maintain the team in Arizona – you may have heard that there is speculation that the Yotes could find themselves back in Winnipeg.
The Denver Post is reporting, and those of you who were watching closely already know, that Colorado Avalanche winger Cody McLeod and center Stephane Yelle are both out currently with leg injuries suffered during yesterday afternoon’s enormous win against the Dallas Stars.
Two words, people: Craig Anderson. He was the solution, the primary variable, in the equation that led to the Avalanche win over the Dallas Stars earlier this afternoon. Anderson hadn’t seen more shots than this since October 24th vs. the Red Wings when he stopped a season high 48 of 49 shots. This afternoon in Dallas, Andy tied his 48 saves, but this time out of 51 shots. No matter. The Avs won this one thanks to Anderson.
Welcome back to our regular coverage of the Colorado Avalanche. It was a long, strange trip through them there Olympics and needless to say I’ve written some very long winded diatribes, which I will spare you here. Really, the point of this article is to expose you to the roster situation for tonight’s game against the loathed Detroit Red Wings.
The final day of games before the first break of the tournament and the playoff brackets are finalized saw some battles and one absolutely outstanding upset (being completely misrepresented in most traditional media outlets).
Better late than never I always say, so here it is: Day two of our Men’s Olympic Hockey Coverage. This was another exciting day of seeing who is bringing what to the tournament as well as basically ranking teams based on their performance (likely erroneous judgements at best).
The International Ice Hockey Federation has half of this year’s Olympic Hockey team rosters available to peruse online today, with another five being announced tomorrow. The Team USA roster won’t be released until January 1st, during the Winter Classic game. Things aren’t looking good for team USA at this point but hey, we had the Miracle on Ice remember?
Are you as excited for this upcoming season as you were last year?
