Recap: Avalanche winless at Rookie Faceoff
A squad of Colorado Avalanche rookies defended on Los Angeles to play a three-game set against their west coast foes for the Rookie Faceoff. While they didn’t earn any wins there were several nice goals scored and encouraging performances to take note of.
Game One featured the Avalanche hopefuls against the Anahiem Ducks in their very orange new uniforms. Colorado rallied in the third period but fell 4-3 in the contest. Top prospect Calum Ritchie unfortunately didn’t get to face his Oshawa teammate and Ducks’ 2024 third overall pick Beckett Sennecke who was out with injury but had a good showing of his own picking up an assist on each Avalanche goal.
