The Colorado Avalanche played twice Sunday in their first action of preseason games. One squad went up north to play the Minnesota Wild while another stayed home to play the Vegas Golden Knights.
Unfortunately, the Minnesota game wasn't available to watch but we can take some pride in the fact that the majority of that team were young prospects and went up against a Minnesota team playing several starters.
After getting behind by two in the 2nd period, the young Avs tied it up in the 3rd behind goals from Spencer Smallman and Shane Bowers. They would eventually lose it in OT, but to hang with the big boys was something we are sure Jared Bednar, who was coaching this squad, can be proud of.
In the other game, many more of the Avs set to make the official roster took part, along with many prospects vying for a roster spot.
We got to see what Evan Rodrigues can do with his deadly shot. Young guys like Oskar Olausson, Jean-Luc Foudy, and Alex Beaucage put their talent on display, while Martin Kaut struggled.
And what about Alex Georgiev? How did he look in playing half the game? Chris was impressed.
In the end, the Avs scored three unanswered to beat Vegas, 3-1
