DENVER — We are live from Ball Arena as the Detroit Red wings take on the Colorado Avalanche.
Slow Start
As the Avalanche have done for most of this season, they got off to a bit of a slow start in this game against the Wings. Detroit played with a sense of urgency, with more energy, and seemed to have the fresher legs.
The difference? The Avalanche have yet to allow a goal and the game is still tied. So the silver lining here is that at least Colorado isn't fighting from behind -- yet.
Blackwood Outstanding
Colorado continued to look lethargic past the halfway point of the opening frame.
