October 21, 2020 07:00 - 30 minutes - 28.2 MB

The Colorado Avalanche are loaded with talent, but they still have some players that could be tagged with the phrase 'breakout season'. I discuss three such players and how the term 'breakout' could relate to them. Due to all the talent, Coach Bednar has the capability to mix and match his lines like no other coach. We take a look into what those lines could look like. Valeri Nichushkin gets his season grade. Tune in and subscribe! Lives of The Stoics: The Art of Living from Zeno to Marcus ...

October 19, 2020 07:00 - 28 minutes - 26.1 MB

Nathan MacKinnon doesn't post much to social media, but when he does it usually has meaning. Last week as no different when he posted gloves that could possibly belong to next years alternate uniforms featuring the Quebec Nordiques. Due to COVID, next season will look pretty different and divisions are one thing that might change for next year. How this will affect the Avs with them moving into a new division if only for one year is discussed. Finally, Tyson Jost has signed his QA for a one ...

October 13, 2020 07:00 - 29 minutes - 26.9 MB

If GM Joe Sakic stopped after his deal which brought Brandon Saad to Colorado, we all would have been excited about the season ahead. But Joe Sakic wasn't done. In a GM move worth of GM of the Year, Sakic pulled off another deal with the New York Islanders that brought defender Devon Toews to the Colorado blue line, cementing not only the Avs lineup, but their position as frontrunners for the Stanley Cup.

The Avalanche add five players to their franchise through the 2020 draft. Tyson Jost gets his 2019-2020 grade

October 08, 2020 12:14 - 28 minutes - 26.4 MB

The Colorado Avalanche didn't make many waves in this years draft selecting Justin Barron in the first round, then went on to pick Jean-Luc Foudie in the third. From there it was players with a boom or bust label, and let's face it, the Avs are in a position to make moves like that being set up with their current team for years to come. Still, its always nice to see your team make some moves and maybe get a guy that has fallen out of the first and into the third for some reason. Tyson Jost ...

September 30, 2020 07:00 - 27 minutes - 21.8 MB

The Colorado Avalanche have been known to be on the quiet side during recent off-seasons. This year could, and probably should, be different as the Avs are in a prime position a lot of teams aren't due to the flat cap. The time is now. The Avs also have switched picked with the Washington Capitals. Not because they made a trade, because of a new NHL rule that is in place for this year only. 2020 continues to be great.
