The Colorado Avalanche are surprisingly struggling this season. After an 8-3 thrashing at the hands of the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday, they took their talents to La Belle Province to face a team that epitomizes the word struggle; the Montreal Canadiens. I actually attended this game at the Bell Centre, hoping that perhaps a tired Avs team could lead to a rare Habs win.
Welcome to your Bottom Six Minutes, in which I’ll discuss the Canadiens looking much more like the team that played the night before.
It has happened a few times this season — the Canadiens look like the more tired team and being dominated — despite not lacking for rest after a two-day break.
