Morning Flurries: Bounce backs for Avs and DU

The Colorado Avalanche are back in the win column! #JustWinBaby

After a thrashing at the hands of the Nashville Predators, the Avalanche managed to come out of their second game in a back-to-back triumphant. They stormed back late in the game against the Detroit Red Wings to force overtime, then capitalized on a poor decision by starter Jimmy Howard to pull out the win and hopefully turn things back around.

Take the victory with a grain of salt, as the Red Wings are on the wrong side of their playoff window - but they’ve been the beneficiaries of some great goaltending this year, so any win is a good win in our book.
