Why haven't we heard about a Nazem Kadri ruling yet? Will the top line get going?
June 08, 2021 07:00 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBThe Colorado Avalanche are in must win mode. And to do that they need to play better that what they have shown the past three games. The good news is they have the friendly confines of Ball Arena where they Avs have been difficult to beat. Will we find out the fate of the Nazem Kadri suspension Tuesday? At this point, who the heck knows. We thought news would come down on Monday. It never did. The longer this goes on the longer it will come to Kadri fulfilling the eight games anyway. Tune ...
The Colorado Avalanche find themselves in a 2-2 series tie with Vegas after a bad 5-1 loss
June 07, 2021 10:46 - 28 minutes - 26.8 MBThe Colorado Avalanche needed a rebound game. They didn't get it. Vegas continues to be the dominant team in the series and the Avs need to figure out how to get back on track quick. Things started well for the Avs, but that seems to be the problem. They haven't been able to sustain a full 60 minute game like we are used to. The good news is the Avs return home to try and get this series back in their favor. Tune in and subscribe!

June 05, 2021 07:00 - 10 minutes - 9.59 MBThe Colorado Avalanche were five minutes away from taking a commanding 3-0 series lead over the Vegas Golden Knights. But a bank shot of the back side of Philipp Grubauer and a redirected shot from the point seconds apart prevented that and Vegas is back in the series. Learn more about your ad choices.

Locker Room Friday! Colorado Avalanche fans join the show to discuss Mark Scheifele, the Peter DeBoer comments and predicting Game 3
June 04, 2021 07:00 - 37 minutes - 30.1 MBIf it's Friday it's a Locker Room event! Avalanche fans join me live and today we discuss a wide range of topics. Did the NHL get it right on the Mark Scheifele four game suspension or does this slap in the face of Nazem Kadri? Vegas head coach Peter DeBoer had some questionable things to say about the Avs after Game 2. Does he believe what he says or is he just setting up his excuses? And Game 3 will be the first game of the series in a difficult Vegas arena. Predictions! Tune in and subscr...
Mikko Rantanen's OT goal gives the Colorado Avalanche a 3-2 win and a 2-0 series lead over the Vegas Golden Knights
June 03, 2021 07:00 - 27 minutes - 25.7 MBThe Colorado Avalanche didn't play their best game of the playoffs. Some of that is thanks to the Golden Knights getting some rest and able to come out and play more of their style. But the Avs toughed it out, pushed the game to overtime where a Vegas penalty got the Avs on the power play where Mikko Rantanen sniped a wrist shot over Marc-Andre Fleury for the game winner sending the Avs to a 3-2 win. Colorado has not lost in these playoffs, going 6-0 so far. However, the real test begins as ...
CROSSOVER EVENT! Karlo Gonzales from Locked on Golden Knights joins the show to discuss the series against the Colorado Avalanche
June 02, 2021 07:00 - 38 minutes - 30.7 MBWe tried to get a crossover show in before the series started, and maybe it was a good thing we didn't. So much happened after just one game between the Vegas Golden Knights and Colorado Avalanche that if we had done a joint show prior to the series, we probably would have had to do another one anyway to discuss all the craziness. Karlo and I talk about our respective Vezina Trophy candidates in Marc-Andre Fleury and Philipp Grubauer, where the series is headed for games 2-7 and that little...
Dept. of Player Safety determines Ryan Reaves actions warrant only a two game suspension, while Nazem Kadri's eight games is upheld
June 01, 2021 07:00 - 36 minutes - 33.2 MBIf we have learned one thing from this current NHL season, it's that COVID sucks, fans in the stands make a difference and we have absolutely no idea what the Department of Player Safety will do when handing out suspensions. Maybe we shouldn't be surprised when the man heading that department was a goon himself, so he doesn't see the need to come down hard on players who are repeat offenders. The NHL proved again Monday that player safety is of no concern to them as they handed Ryan Reaves t...
The Colorado Avalanche destroy a classless Vegas Golden Knights team, 7-1.
May 31, 2021 07:00 - 28 minutes - 26.7 MBThe Colorado Avalanche were off for a week. Some thought that might hurt them going up against one of the top tier teams in the league in the Vegas Golden Knights. The time off proved to be of no concern for the Avalanche as they went on to crush Vegas, 7-1, in what turned into an ugly affair. Vegas lost control of the game early, and they took out their frustration the only way they know how. With poster boy of idiocy, Ryan Reaves injuring Ryan Graves. The Avalanche looked fresh. Coupled wi...
Locker Room Friday! Avs fans get together to talk about the Avs sweep, the Kadri suspension and who do we root for; Minnesota or Vegas?!?
May 28, 2021 07:00 - 31 minutes - 25.6 MBAnother Locker Room Friday is here! Today, Avs fans speak up about their excitement over the Avs sweep of the St. Louis Blues. Was it the Avs being the dominant team, the Blues down players or a combination of the two? The Nazem Kadri suspension. Will it get reduced at all? And with Minnesota and Vegas going to a game 7, who in the world do we root for here??

Whenever the Colorado Avalanche start their 2nd round series, it will be in front of even more Avs fans. Jayson Megna added to the COVID protocol list.
May 27, 2021 07:00 - 25 minutes - 23.8 MBThe Colorado Avalanche started the season, like every other team, with an empty arena. Whenever their 2nd round series kicks off they will play in front of 10,500 screaming Avalanche fans as Ball Arena was granted an increase in fans. One player who might not be there with the team is Jayson Megna who was added to the leagues COVID protocol list. It is not know the severity of him being added to the list and it could be just a contact tracing issue or something more severe. Let's hope Megn...
Has Nathan MacKinnon increased his stock with the sports media? Will the Nazem Kadri suspension decrease? Wild or Knights?
May 26, 2021 07:00 - 37 minutes - 34.4 MBNathan MacKinnon is without question a top talent in the NHL. But he can't seem to crack the #1 spot which is held firmly by Edmonton's Connor McDavid. However, with McDavid and the Oilers continuing to struggle in the postseason, and with MacKinnon playing his best hockey in the postseason, does this open the door for MacKinnon to come in and take the throne as the best player in the league? If Nathan MacKinnon wins a Stanley Cup before Connor McDavid, does that change the discussion? In t...
Break out the brooms! The Colorado Avalanche sweep the St. Louis Blues in round one of the playoffs
May 24, 2021 07:00 - 28 minutes - 26.7 MBThe Colorado Avalanche did not go the route of resting anyone while up 3-0 in the series with St. Louis. Instead, they had the mindset to end the series now, rest later. That's exactly what they did. Colorado gave up the first goal, a second period goal by Blues forward Vladimir Tarasenko, but before the period was over the Avs found themselves leading 2-1 after Brandon Saad and Gabriel Landeskog found the net. All in all, this series was dominated by the Avs. And now they wait. Will it be ...
Nazem Kadri gets suspended for eight games as the Colorado Avalanche beat St. Louis 5-1 to take a 3-0 series lead
May 22, 2021 07:00 - 27 minutes - 25.7 MBAs the Colorado Avalanche were playing on the ice, news off the ice came that Nazem Kadri is suspended eight games for his hit on Justin Faulk in Game 2. While the Avs will miss the what Kadri can bring, this team is deep and it showed in Game 3 where the Avs took a commanding series lead after a 5-1 win over the Blues in St. Louis. The Avs can look to close out the series on Sunday and the question is what to do for some positions. Do they give Grubauer a rest? Does Byram come in and get so...
Locker Room Friday! Avs fans get together to talk about the Avs 2-0 series lead on St. Louis, Nathan MacKinnon and the pending Kadri suspension
May 21, 2021 16:51 - 47 minutes - 43.5 MBIn what is slowly taking over the internet, the Locked on Avalanche and the Locker Room app has become a phenomenon. At least us Avalanche fans think so. Every week I am joined with other Avalanche fans who join me to talk live about the Avs and today is another one of those discussions. Today we talk about the Avs and their 2-0 series lead over the Blues, what to expect heading back to St. Louis, how awesome is Nathan MacKinnon and how long should we expect to be without Kadri. Thanks to ev...
The Colorado Avalanche win Game 2, 6-3 on the strength of a Nathan MacKinnon hat trick as the series heads to St. Louis
May 20, 2021 07:00 - 25 minutes - 24 MBThe score might look like the Avalanche had this game in their grip, but that would not be entirely true. Yes, the Avs got out to a hot start taking a 3-0 lead. Things were looking great. But there was a noticeable relaxation on the part of the Avs and St. Louis, to their credit, did not quit and battled back. The Avs turned things on when they had to and behind their superstar Nathan MacKinnon's hat trick, took a 2-0 series lead with a 6-3 win. Now the series heads to St. Louis where a muc...
Bowen Byram is healthy, but will Coach Bednar find a slot for him? What to expect from Game 2 against St. Louis.
May 19, 2021 07:00 - 34 minutes - 31.5 MBThe Colorado Avalanche took care of business in Game 1. But now that is history. All the focus now turns to Game 2 as the Avs wants to take this series by the throat when it heads back to St. Louis. Several of the Avalanche players stated the increased capacity in the arena no doubt helped the team so expect even more of that Wednesday night. Bowen Byram has been out several weeks due to injury and COVID related issues. He has been back at practice and is healthy and ready to go. But will J...
The Colorado Avalanche start their playoff run with a 4-1 win over the St. Louis Blues
May 18, 2021 07:00 - 25 minutes - 23.5 MBThis is exactly how the Colorado Avalanche wanted to start their run for a Stanley Cup, with a statement win over the St. Louis Blues. St. Louis kept it close with some great goaltending by Jordan Binnington, but when you throw 50 shots on net, good things usually happen. Nathan MacKinnon took over in the third and if not for a Gabriel Landeskog tip in would have had a hat trick all to himself in the third period alone. Speaking of Landeskog, he found himself with a goal, two assists and a f...
Conor McGahey, the radio voice of the Colorado Avalanche, joins the show to prep us for the Avs post season run!
May 17, 2021 07:00 - 25 minutes - 23.1 MBConor McGahey was gracious enough to take time out of his busy schedule and talk with me about all things Avalanche. How the Avs have gotten to the spot they are in now ( a #1 seed and the Presidents' Trophy). Just how important it was to obtain that Trophy. How have Alex Newhook and Bowen Byram looked in the flesh? Can we expect more from Nathan MacKinnon this post season compared to last when he was a beast? Who at Altitude is the most giddy in looking forward to these playoffs? Tune in, ...
The Colorado Avalanche claim the Presidents' Trophy with a 5-1 victory of the Los Angeles Kings
May 14, 2021 07:00 - 35 minutes - 28.9 MBThe Colorado Avalanche did everything but score in the first period against the Los Angeles Kings and even found themselves down 1-0 at the end of the period. But, in typical Avalanche fashion, Colorado went on a rampage in the second, scoring all five goals en route to a 5-1 win and closing out their season as the best team in the NHL and claiming the Presidents Trophy. Now the real work begins as the playoffs, something the Avs have been bounced from the last three seasons, begin against a...
One more win and the Colorado Avalanche claim the President's Trophy
May 13, 2021 07:00 - 22 minutes - 20.8 MBThe Colorado Avalanche could have claimed the President's Trophy if things went a certain way last night. Vegas needed to lose. They made it clear they had no intention on doing so and put all the pressure on the Avs. Colorado in return had no problem handling the Los Angeles Kings and are now one win away from claiming the President's Trophy.

Up 2-0, the Colorado Avalanche collapse and lose 3-2 to the San Jose Sharks
May 06, 2021 07:00 - 22 minutes - 20.9 MBIf the Colorado Avalanche have a lead heading into the third period, you can pretty much chalk up a win. Last night was the exception as the Avs, up 2-0, saw their lead dwindle away to the San Jose Sharks who put up three unanswered goals to win it, 3-2. With the Vegas Golden Knights beating Minnesota in OT and thus extending their lead over the Avs, does Colorado have enough time to catch up to Vegas? Tune in and subscribe!

Has the NHL endangered it's players by not suspending Tom Wilson? Where do Colorado Avalanche players stand with the top NHL Awards?
May 05, 2021 07:00 - 34 minutes - 31.6 MBYes this is a Colorado Avalanche podcast, but when things like what happened with Tom Wilson and the Rangers happens, it needs to be talked about. Tom Wilson needs to be stopped and the NHL has shown they are doing nothing to stop him. With the regular season winding down I thought it would be a good time to check in with some of the bigger NHL Awards and where any Colorado Avalanche players stand in winning them. The Avs should represent well come award time. Tune in and subscribe! BetOnl...
The Colorado Avalanche put together a come from behind win in OT against San Jose and pull within two points of Vegas
May 04, 2021 10:40 - 27 minutes - 25.7 MBNot the way they drew it up, the the Colorado Avalanche needed a comeback win against the San Jose Sharks in OT to get the extra point and come within two points of Vegas who lost to the Wild. The Avalanche kept shooting themselves in the foot and San Jose kept taking advantage of bad turnovers. The Avs seemed to be running out of time, but goals by Gab Landeskog and Nazem Kadri got the game tied before winning it in OT less than a minute in to the extra time. Let's talk about this game as ...
After losing three straight the Colorado Avalanche win the back to back against the San Jose Sharks, but gain more injuries. Alex Newhook is on the way.
May 03, 2021 07:00 - 40 minutes - 37.1 MBThe Colorado Avalanche looked like a different team, and a lot of that is likely due to players like Mikko Rantanen, Philipp Grubauer and Joonas Donskoi returning. Colorado got back on the winning side in taking both games of the back to back against the Sharks, but the Avs are going to have to do what they have done all year in having players step up for injuries after Sam Girard and Ryan Graves go down. The Avs are also dipping into that loaded talent pool they have in calling up Alex New...
Good is not good enough as the Colorado Avalanche lose their third straight, 5-2 against the Vegas Golden Knights
April 29, 2021 07:00 - 24 minutes - 22.9 MBThe Avalanche have been here before. Down key players. But facing a team like Vegas you need all hands on deck, and not having guys like Mikko Rantanen and Joonas Donskoi around clearly hurt the Avs, who played better, but not to the level of beating a healthy team like Vegas. However, help could be on the way as the Avs hopefully get those names back this weekend. Tune in and subscribe! BetOnline AG There is only 1 place that has you covered and 1 place we trust.

The hockey Gods give and take when it comes to the Colorado Avalanche and injuries. Could Gabe Landeskog go unprotected in the expansion draft?
April 28, 2021 07:00 - 28 minutes - 26.3 MBThe Avalanche and injuries go together like peanut butter and jelly. We found out a lot about their recent struggles with injured players from Coach Bednar yesterday and it was good and bad. Mikko Rantanen, Philipp Grubauer and Joonas Donskoi are all expected back on Friday. However, both Bowen Byram and Logan O'Connor had set backs in their return and both are expected to continue to miss time. O'Connor possible much longer. Thus is the life of the Avalanche. Gabriel Landeskog is an unrest...
The Colorado Avalanche have no answer for the St. Louis Blues defense, lose 4-1.
April 27, 2021 07:00 - 28 minutesThe Colorado Avalanche haven't lost back to back games often this season, but if they play the way they have the past couple of games they will be fighting to win games. The Avalanche did not look good for the second game in a row, and the players out with injury could have definitely helped in this one, as the St. Louis defense gave the Avs no room to make any plays in a 4-1 loss. Colorado can't sit around and sulk as they have a date with the top seed Vegas on Wednesday, who will be well re...
The Colorado Avalanche have no answer for the St. Louis Blues defense, lose 4-1.
April 27, 2021 07:00 - 26 minutes - 24.2 MBThe Colorado Avalanche haven't lost back to back games often this season, but if they play the way they have the past couple of games they will be fighting to win games.

The Colorado Avalanche lose 5-3 to St. Louis in a sloppy effort. What good can be taken away?
April 26, 2021 07:00 - 28 minutes - 26.2 MBIf you told me three minutes into the game the Colorado Avalanche would have a 2-0 lead I would have felt pretty comfortable with how the game would have continued. That did not happen as the Avalanche got away from what makes them a successful team as they lost to St. Louis 5-3. Bad penalties, costly turnovers and not finishing on open looks costs the Avs two points. Yet, there are always good things to take away from any loss. What exactly can be taken away from this game? Tune in to find ...
The Colorado Avalanche are playoff bound and beat the St. Louis Blues 4-2. Avs fans sound off on our weekly Locker Room chat!
April 23, 2021 07:00 - 50 minutes - 46.3 MBThe Colorado Avalanche had their season paused for a second time this past week, and last night was their first game back in action.

Mikko Rantanen is NOT positive for COVID, but still won't travel with the team, neither will Byram. The NHL moves the Avs schedule around.
April 22, 2021 07:00 - 28 minutes - 25.8 MBIt was reported Mikko Rantanen was added to the COVID protocol list due to a positive screen, that turns out to not be the case as Rantanen was added due to contact tracing. He still, however, will not travel with the team for the three game series against St. Louis. Bowen Byram is off the protocol list, but needs to build some strength back up and therefore will not be joining the Avs either on the road trip. The NHL released an updated schedule for the Avs to make up for the games lost th...
Mikko Rantanen is added to the COVID protocol list. The fourth Colorado Avalanche player to be added. Who fills his role?
April 21, 2021 07:00 - 20 minutes - 19.4 MBThe Colorado Avalanche appeared to be headed in the right direction of getting back on the ice as scheduled, this Thursday against St. Louis. Then word broke that Mikko Rantanen was added to the list, after four days of zero Avs added. So far, the return to play date of Thursday is still a go, but could change in an instant if the Avs find any other players with a positive test. What does this mean for the Avs and who is going to step up and fill the very big role Rantanen plays? Tune in an...
Congratulations to Patrick Marleau. Updating the Colorado Avalanche keepers for the Seattle Kraken draft
April 20, 2021 07:00 - 33 minutes - 31.2 MBMy how times have changed. In the beginning of the season we had certain guys who we assumed the Avalanche would protect when it came to the expansion draft. After a few short months a lot has changed and we are looking at a few different names on the list of protected players. Who are the players the Avs will protect and who are the top five players who could be available to the Kraken to add to their new roster? Tune in and subscribe!

COVID pauses the Colorado Avalanche season for the second time this season. Kyle Sullivan joins!
April 19, 2021 07:00 - 32 minutes - 29.6 MBA lot was supposed to happen this past weekend. None of it did. Jared Bednar was supposed to be the holder of the most games coached in franchise history. The Avalanche were supposed to (possibly) clinch a playoff spot. But due to a third player testing positive for COVID, the NHL shut the Avs season down for the second time. If all goes well (and so far it is) the Avalanche will resume play on 4/22. So let's set our sights on that. Kyle Sullivan joins to discuss these issues and others! Tu...

Jared Bednar appreciation segment. Devan Dubnyk on his first game with the Colorado Avalanche.
April 16, 2021 07:00 - 30 minutes - 28.1 MBThe question is always is it the talent on the ice or the person coaching that talent. The answer isn't always that simple but in the case for the Colorado Avalanche it's a little bit of both. The Colorado Avalanche are where they are because of guys like Nathan MacKinnon, Mikko Rantanen and Cale Makar. But they are also here because of Jared Bednar. What he has been able to accomplish after a disaster of a first season where fans were calling for his firing has been nothing short of spectac...
Devan Dubnyk wins his first start for the Colorado Avalanche while Philipp Grubauer enters the leagues COVID protocol
April 15, 2021 07:00 - 28 minutes - 26.4 MBDevan Dubnyk might have gotten the start last night against the St. Louis Blues anyway. But when word came out the the Avs player who had a positive COVID test was Philipp Grubauer, it was a done deal. So despite some Avalanche fans not being thrilled with Dubnyk as their teams backup, Avs fans need to get comfortable with Dubnyk running the show for the next couple weeks while Grubauer goes through the leagues COVID protocol. And in his first game, Dubnyk did what a back up goalie should d...
Carl Soderberg returns to the Colorado Avalanche in a trade day deal. Do the Avalanche have any holes in their roster? Avs duke out a 4-2 win over the Arizona Coyotes
April 13, 2021 07:00 - 28 minutes - 26.8 MBPatrik Nemeth was only the beginning when it came to former players returning to help the Avs team achieve their goal of a Cup. Joe Sakic brought back another familiar face when he made a deal with the Chicago Blackhawks to bring back fan favorite Carl Soderberg in a trade day deal. When the trade season concluded, the Avs made three deals, all depth deals, but all important ones as each of these guys is going to see action and be important pieces of the puzzle to bring a Cup back to Denver....
You're not dreaming. Devan Dubnyk is a member of the Colorado Avalanche. The Avs also bring back Patrik Nemeth. Are more deals coming?
April 12, 2021 07:00 - 29 minutes - 27.2 MBAvalanche fans know Devan Dubnyk and know him well. Did they ever think he would be wearing the burgundy and blue and fighting with the Avs to win a Cup? I think most would be willing to admit that day would never come, but it has. Joe Sakic shored up the one remaining hole in obtaining Dub from the Sharks in an early Saturday morning deal, a day after bringing back Patrik Nemeth from the Detroit Red Wings. Dubnyk will be the one to spell Philipp Grubauer when needed and this move comes as J...
Jacob MacDonald gets suspended for two games and ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? Alex Newhook and Sampo Ranta could suit up in the AHL this weekend
April 09, 2021 07:00 - 26 minutes - 24.5 MBThe NHL set the tone with not suspending superstar Connor McDavid after his deliberate elbow last week. Clearly the league does not hold it's superstars to a higher standard as what McDavid did found him $5k lighter in his band account while what Jacob MacDonald did apparently warrants a two game suspension. Why this reeks of favoritism. Also, Alex Newhook and Sampo Ranta might be taking the next step in their careers in suiting up for the Avs AHL affiliate, the Colorado Eagles, this weeken...
A 15 game point streak comes to a crashing stop as the Colorado Avalanche play their worst game of the year in an 8-3 loss to Minnesota
April 08, 2021 12:29 - 25 minutes - 24 MBWell that was awful. The Colorado Avalanche, who have been the hottest team in the league, burned up last night against Minnesota as they saw their 15 game points streak end in grand fashion to a very game Minnesota Wild team. The Avs have been handling the Wild with relative ease lately so you knew the Wild would come out with their best effort. Couple that with the Avalanche worst effort and it was a recipe for disaster. Colorado made a run at it in the second, but Minnesota was not about ...
