In this episode we break down the two losses in a row. The first was a loss against the Capitals; a game the Avalanche had under control, and were clearly winning. However, a bunch of bad penalties killed their momentum, and let the Caps back in the game. Both goaltenders played outstanding, and the Avs fell 3-2.


Then it was time for the big NHL Stadium Series matchup. To put it simply, this game was a complete dud. Again, the Avs seem to shoot themselves in the foot in a game that looked to be heading into overtime. The Kings scored a goal with just under a minute, and then secured the victory with an empty net goal. Toffoli ended up scoring all three goals for the Kings, giving him the first ever hat trick in an outdoor game. Kings win 3-1.


We wrap up the episode talking about the issues fans had with everything surrounding this outdoor game. It sounds like it was more of a headache than a good experience, which is a hard pill to swallow.


Depressing episode to say the least, not to mention that Grubauer and Calvert both left this game with lower-body injuries. Welcome back Colorado Ambulance.
