Colorado Avalanche: Play for Pride or Suck for Seth?

Play for pride No professional athlete or coach will ever purposefully tank for dry higher draft pick. If a coach condones tanking, there’s a very good chance he will not survive long enough to coach the player the team will eventually draft. Players will also never tank as they are playing for their professional lives each ...

Patrick Bordeleau: Legit NHL Heavyweight

Colorado Avalanche enforcer Patrick Bordeleau and me from the Avs Charity Brunch Some people say that the role of the true heavyweight enforcer is dead in today’s NHL.  Don’t tell that to Patrick Bordeleau, who in just 37 games into a shortened season has established himself as one of, if not the premier heavyweight enforcer ...

Breaking Down the Avs Trade Deadline Activity

Remember when the Colorado Avalanche would make a huge splash at the trade deadline every year?  Household names like Theo Fleury, Ray Bourque, and Rob Blake all found themselves in Avs sweaters near the trade deadline.  Nowdays…not so much. If you expected the Avs to make a big move before today’s 1:00pm MDT deadline, you’d ...

Although the Colorado Avalanche currently sit dead-last in the Western Conference and 29th overall out of 30 NHL teams, they are still only six points out of the eighth and final playoff spot in the West, so not all is lost just yet.  In this lockout-shortened season, there have been some positives for the Avs.  ...

Colorado Avalanche: Five Down

One week ago, the Colorado Avalanche defeated the San Jose Sharks in dramatic fashion, with superstar Matt Duchene netting the game-winner with just .2 seconds left on the clock in the overtime period.  Since then, there really have not been a whole lot of positives for the Burgundy and Blue as they have dropped three ...

Who Will Be The Colorado Avalanche’s Top Six Defensemen?

The Colorado Avalanche are getting healthier.  Captain Gabe Landeskog returned to the lineup after missing 11 games and injured defensemen Erik Johnson and Ryan Wilson appear to be on the mend as well.  Both have practiced over the last couple of days and are with the team on its current three-game road trip.  Both could ...
