Is Clark worth the money?
Already tonight, I've raved a bit about the Brett Clark signing - a signing that hasn't exactly been received with open arms with the Avalanche community. Most people think $3.5 million for an average defenseman is too much. Me? I wonder what sport ...

Lappy Will Stick Around For A While

A Must-Post Topic

Game 16: Canucks 2, Avalanche 1 (OT)
The Colorado Avalanche lost their first overtime game this season to the Vancouver Canucks, who are now 2-0 against the Avs so far. You know it's a boring game when both team's goalies are among the three stars, and I didn't make it past the second ...

 Stoking The Rivalry Keeps Getting Harder
Stoking The Rivalry Keeps Getting Harder
Even though Colorado Avalanche fans want to hate the Flames, it's tough because the Flames just aren't that good. It takes a good team to be a good rival.

 The Final Word On Fisticuffs
The Final Word On Fisticuffs
The agonizing introspection over fighting in the NHL just got worse thanks to Sean Avery's big mouth. Does fighting still have a place in the game, or is hockey better off without it?

 The Avs' Underwhelming Off-Season So Far
The Avs' Underwhelming Off-Season So Far
I'm not exactly sure what we were expecting from the Avalanche this summer, but it had to be more than this.  Though the free agent pool was relatively thin overall, there were still attractive names like Hossa and Rolston and Campbell and ...

Game 13: Canucks 4, Avalanche 3
photo courtesy of Jack Dempsey/AP The streak had to end sometime. Through a combination of sloppy defense, shaky goaltending and uncoordinated offense, the Avalanche lost at home for the first time this season, 4-3 to the Vancouver Canucks. The ...

Game 14: Avalanche 4, Flames 1
The Avalanche came from behind again, but this time the Flames didn't get a point from the loss, as Colorado rolled over them 4-1 .  The Flame-Outs are now 0-1-2 on the season against their hated rivals from Denver. Once again, strong ...

Game 37: Red Wings 4, Avalanche 2
Well, it wasn't a huge surprise, but it was disappointing nonetheless.  The Red Wings beat the Avalanche 4-2 at home in front of the first sellout crowd at the Pepsi Center in a long time.  Helping fill out The Can was a fair number of ...

Game 42: Red Wings 1, Avalanche 0
Well, the Avalanche didn't get blown out by a far superior Red Wings team.  For that I am grateful.  But they still got beat, and they still are just barely treading water as far as division and playoff positions go. The Colorado defense ...

The Chopping Block: These Players Need To Go
