Colorado Avalanche Playoff Potential?

The question that is burning in every Colorado Avalanche fan's mind: will they or won't they make the NHL playoffs? Well, they're on the brink. They still could make it. But they did lose last night to the San Jose Sharks, giving the Sharks the 1st place spot in their division. Annnd they didn't just lose. They lost 5-1. Basically: if they keep up this kind of play, there's not going to be any playoff action on the Avalanche schedule. Which makes me the teeeeeniest  bit sad. Which means I need something new to keep on cheering for my team! So I found this awesome Avs tank, perfect for a little warmer weather. It's dusted with Swarovski Crystals and just adorable. It's a little pricey for $55, but hey, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. And I NEED this shirt. Ciao!

Matt Duchene of the Colorado Avalanche Roster

 

Time to take a little peak at all of those Colorado Avalanche Roster Men that we cheer for from the stands! This week we're centering around Matt Duchene, center for the Avs. Duchene is originally from Ontario, Canada and was born in 1991, making him 21 years old. He was drafted third overall in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft by the Colorado Avalanche. He was ranked just as high by the NHL Central Scouting Bureau while playing juniors for the Central ontario Wolves. His 100th career point was recorded in January of 2011 with a goal scored against the Phoenix Coyotes, making him the youngest player in Avalanche franchise history to garner that many points at such a young point in his career. We see great things on the horizon for this adorable hockey center!

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!
