Avs Make It...Easier...To Get Some Coloardo Avalanche Tickets

Six losses in eight games = no bueno for the Colorado Avalanche. But it could = muy bueno for you, if you love hockey (or have a little one that loves  hockey) but are sticking to a budget. Why, you ask? Well, let me tell you! When the team isn't playing as hot as fans would like, there's less demand to see a game. Which means prices on those tickets go down. Which means you can either:

a. go to a game and spend less money
b. sit in better seats for the same amount you would have spent.

Now for this Avalanche fanatic, I would opt for numero dos. (aka letter b). But you just have to decide what your ideal situation is! Spend less on seats and more on hot dogs and diet pepsi, or sit down closer to the players so you can try to make eye contact. The choice is yours, loves!

Google Results of "Colorado Avalanche"

I'm not really enjoying what's going on with the Avs right now. Between the Nuckers win this weekend to the Kobasew fine, things aren't all rainbows and unicorns in Avalanche land right now. So instead, I thought I'd google Colorado Avalanche to see what came up in the news. And here's our top five stories. Not what you'd expect, I might add:

1. "Winning Ugly Becoming a Concern for Canucks" - a Canadian article. Sweet.
2. "Technology Saves Woman from Colorado Avalanche" - if you're a backwoods boarder, invest in a backpack airbag.
3. "NHL Fines Avalanche F Kobasew $2500 for tripping Vancouver D Hamhuis" -Just what I didn't want to talk about....
4. "Avalanche Danger High in Colorado Mountains this season" - perhaps due to the foot and a half of snow they got this weekend?
5. "Daily Cupcakes February 6th" - Cupcakes? What? oh...Milehigh Hockey. But cupcakes. I'm so confused. And hungry.

Colorado Avalanche Roster: Down But Not Out

So the Av's disappointing pre-All Star Break loss to the Minnesota Wild kind of sucked. Mostly because the team had a great chance to show off some skills and grab a couple of much needed points to make it to the playoffs, and then barely even showed up to the game. That being said, our ice boys still have a big chance to make it to the playoffs this season. What we need to make that happen:

1. A stronger 2nd period. For some reason, the team can't seem to keep the level of play consistent throughout the entire game. Unless you count them consistently performing sub-par during the second period. I don't know if it's an individual mentality thing or a coaching thing, but whatever they're doing is screwing with their heads enough to really screw with their game. For 20 minutes.

2. Matt Duchene needs to get better. Knee injuries suck, so cheers to him recovering quickly. This team just isn't playing at the same level without him. Again, could just be a mental thing, but there's no doubt that Duchene on the bench is messing with some heads on the Avalanche roster.

3. The team needs to utilize both goalies to avoid having one playing tired. That might be a 2 game on - 1 game off deal for Giguere, but our best offense is a good defense. And defense starts at the net - so let's make sure the guys IN the net are ON the puck. So to speak (that was my attempt at humor...).

Anyway - hoping to a good rest of the season and a solid post-season. Go Avs!
