Inconsistent Avalanche Start Title Defense With 3-1 Loss to the Kraken

Not how you want to start your title defense. The Colorado Avalanche were off on the little details for the majority of their opening game against the Seattle Kraken and lose 3-1 to go down in the series 1-0.

It was things you would expect in the first week of the season when you are getting into the flow of a new hockey season. Not in game one of the playoffs. But then again, several players were coming back from injury, so maybe it does make a little sense.

Either way, the Kraken was the better team in game 1. But that is not to say the Avalanche was run out of the building. They clearly did not play their best hockey, but they had moments where it looked like they were taking control, only to have Seattle get back to their gameplan of taking away time and space.

The Avalanche have some changes they need to make, and if there is one thing this team is good at doing, it's making those changes following a loss.
