Recap: Avalanche can’t get out of their way, fall to Flyers

A snowy Saturday night of hockey could not make the difference for the Colorado Avalanche.

With the elements somewhat in their favor, the Avs froze in the third period and eventually fell to the Philadelphia Flyers 5-2. Turnovers continued to be an issue for this Avalanche team who continued to shoot themselves in the foot when having chances in the game.

Saturday night was no different despite playing from behind. It was likely their best game in the last few weeks, but costly mistakes did them in once again. They now have two straight losses in their longest home stand of the season, also not ideal in front of their own fans on Military Appreciation Night.
