The Vancouver Canucks Are Legit
As of this writing, the Vancouver Canucks are in first place in the Pacific Division. Honestly, it makes me happy to say that. Once upon a time, I couldn't stand this team, and that was mainly because of the Steve Moore incident. I absolutely loved seeing this team fail, especially in the 2011 Cup Final, and in the following year's playoffs, which saw them only win one game after winning the Presidents' Trophy again. Then the 2020 bubble happened, and I saw the Canucks make a surprising playoff run, ousting the Minnesota Wild in that Qualifying Round, eliminating the then-defending Cup Champion St. Louis Blues in the opening round, and taking the Vegas Golden Knights to the maximum seven games in the West Semis, but coming up just short.

Avalanche Game 13 Recap: Unacceptable
After receiving our first home loss of this young season, the Colorado Avalanche looked to truly bounce back in the third and last game of this homestand. The team heading into Ball Arena was none other than the St. Louis Blues. This was a Division Rivalry game, and the Blues were in their first full season after the teardown that happened in the middle of last year. So the Blues were a wild card. The Avs' recent history with the Blues had been a good one, but this was a new season series. Even so, it is often fun when the Blues and Avalanche get together.

Avalanche Game 8 Recap: Shuffle Off to Buffalo
As the saying goes, "You can't win 'em all," and the Colorado Avalanche found that out in Pittsburgh when the team was blanked by the Pittsburgh Penguins. The loss snapped a 15-game road winning streak, but even so, the Avalanche entered their latest contest already at 4-1 away from Ball Arena.
