Closer Than it Should Have Been
It's always somewhat special and interesting when the Colorado Avalanche face the Montréal Canadiens. Yes, it's a West vs East matchup, but that's only since 1995. Remember, the Avalanche, once upon a time, were the Quebec Nordiques, and the Nords and Habs were heated rivals for 16 years, mostly in that classic Adams Division. At that time, the Habs were quite established, while the Nords were this team from Quebec's capital city and from another league; a transplant from the WHA. Despite the huge class disparity, the rivalry was heated and close, the NHL's first provincial rivalry--predating the Battle of Alberta by a year. The teams met five times in the playoffs, though Montréal won three of the five. Yeah, pretty close.

Living Well
It was a heartbreaking night in Toronto for the Colorado Avalanche, but we could not look back on that for too long. That game is the first of a back-to-back set for the Avs, and we had to get right back to work, as we were off to Canada's capital to face off against the Ottawa Senators, another red hot team. The Senators are looking very good, it's very likely that this team will be in the playoffs for the first time since missing the Stanley Cup Final by a hair in 2017. Of course, we all know the story with the Sens, that certain trade that basically ruined them.
