LAS VEGAS — Avalanche coach Jared Bednar, critical of his team’s competitive level in Friday night’s 3-2 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 3 of their second-round series, had time to review video of the defeat Saturday morning.
And he’s sure to have plenty to talk about with his players when they meet at 5 p.m.
During an optional skate Saturday at T-Mobile Arena, Bednar pointed to multiple areas the Avs must improve on to get out of a five-period slump that has seen the Knights dominate play. Vegas has outshot Colorado 83-45 in Games 2 and 3 and the Avs’ first loss of the playoffs has set off an alarm.
