The Colorado Avalanche beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 5 – 1 tonight, effectively ending a 3 game losing streak and completing a season series sweep against Columbus. In a game that started off on the wrong foot, the Avs had an enormous showing from their rookies.
The Colorado Avalanche face off at home against the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight in the fourth meeting between the two teams this season. There are a few things going on with the team that are interesting to take note of.
Adrian Dater blogged recently about the possibility that Marek Svatos could be relocated before the trade deadline. While this is mostly speculative, I believe the sources and word is that Toronto, Ottawa (both obviously buyers right now) and perhaps even Boston are interested in the young winger.
It was one hell of a night in Buffalo. The Avalanche held a lead up into the last half of the third period tonight, but never let up on their game much. The Sabres came back in the last ten to tie it up and take it to overtime. Then the shoot out. Holy gods, the shoot out.
Thats right, the Colorado Avalanche dropped their second straight game, this time to the Carolina Hurricanes. The Canes currently sit last in the entire (world) NHL with 31 points – 6 points behind the flailing Edmonton Oilers and 8 points behind the struggling Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Colorado Avalanche dropped their final game of 2009 to the Detroit Red Wings, 4-2. Serving up Detroit’s first win on a silver platter, the Avalanche had their typical third period of terrible plays, lazy skating, and blown chances.
The Colorado Avalanche are reporting that both defenseman Kyle Cumiskey and right wing Marek Svatos have been cleared to play. Coach Joe Sacco added that Cumiskey will probably be in the line up tomorrow against the Ottawa Senators. Both players will be on the 3 game road trip.
Are you as excited for this upcoming season as you were last year?
