Last night the Avalanche lost a close battle to the Winnipeg Jets 7-4. The score might not reflect how entertaining of a game it was which was tied in the third period and then the Avalanche gave up two empty net goals. The Avalanche outshot the Jets 43-26 and held over 60% of the shot attempts in each period but just could not convert on those chances,
There were many ups and downs for the Colorado Avalanche in the 2010s but the 2020s begin with promise for an exciting decade ushered by top tier talent including Nathan MacKinnon, Mikko Rantanen and Cale Makar.
