After a great win in OT last night in Vancouver, the Avalanche headed to Edmonton to see what the Oilers were up to. For those who have never followed the NHL this season and have just happened upon this website by happenstance, the Oilers are last in the league and are pretty much guaranteed to get the 1st draft pick in Los Angeles this summer. However, the Avalanche still have a chance to move up in the standings, so every game still has meaning.
Despite losing Ryan O’Reilly to a bruised foot, the Avalanche did a great job on the penalty kill tonight against the St. Louis Blues. The energy on the ice was high as the Avs came off a 3-0 shutout vs. Edmonton on the 6th. The Blues came out of the gate strong, getting on the scoreboard first, but were soon shut down by the Avalanche’s overall game.
Craig Anderson is getting his 15th straight start of the season against the Vancouver Canucks. When will Budaj get the nod and give Andy some rest?
Are you as excited for this upcoming season as you were last year?
