Denver — There’s been another shift in the Red Wings-Colorado Avalanche rivalry — and, now, it’s the Red Wings on the bad end of things.
The acclaimed rivalry produced so much unforgettable hockey for over a decade, then saw the Avalanche decline and the stars from both teams retire.
But, now there’s been another shift — and Sunday’s 5-1 Avalanche victory clearly showed they’re way ahead of the Red Wings at this point.
Many, many teams are ahead of where the Red Wings (26-35-11, 63 points) are these days.
Sunday’s loss extended their winless streak to an even 10 games (0-9-1).
