It seems to be an annual celebration and one has to ask if it will ever end. Jard Bednar did a masterful job of coaching this season with the endless list of injured players the Colorado Avalanche had. The Avalanche didn't sneak into the playoffs as the last wild card team in, needing a win in the last game of the season. With all those injures, he coached this team to a division title.


But somehow, yet again, he will not win the award for best coach in the league after the NHL announced the three finalists and Bednar's name was left off. Let's not kid ourselves here thinking he would have taken the award home. That in all likelihood will be going to Jim Montgomery of the Boston Bruins. But for what Jared Bednar did with this team this season at least warrants some recognition as a finalist.


We also take a look at some of the positive things that happened for the Avalanche, even though the season ended earlier than expected.
