Remarkable the Broncos are 7-2. Watching them is painful at least 75% of the time.

Wedgewood will start tonight.
This feels like the Avs, but guess weβll find out who it is at a later date.

It will be the Starsβ second outdoor game after hosting the Winter Classic in 2020.
Sam Girard practiced today and could be available this weekend, if things progress.
Logan O'Connor has not joined the team yet, though he was skating on his own today. He is unlikely to be available this weekend.
Concussion for Gavin Brindley. He doesn't have lingering symptoms. He could be available this weekend.

3 out of 4 points on the
Macklin Celebrini is something else. That 360 pass retrieval earlier in the first was insane, and that shot was perfect.
1-1
Martin Necas, yet again.
1-0
Taylor Makar is slotting in next to Parker Kelly and Zakhar Bardakov on the fourth line for the #Avs.
Everything is the same as yesterday, except for Blackwood in net.
Avs have recalled Taylor Makar. Could be related to Brindleyβs injury today.
Possible we see two Makarβs play tomorrow.
Gavin Brindley did not take another shift after taking a high hit from Barbashev in the second period.
Bardakov also did not take a shift in the third period.
Given the opponent, thatβs the most impressive win of the season for the Colorado Avalanche, IMO.
They finish October 7-1-4.
Martin Necas with a 3 point afternoon a little over 24 hours after signing his big extension. Makar with the empty netter.
4-2
Brent Burns with his first goal in an Avalanche uniform, and itβs a big one.
3-1 Avs.
That looked like stick on stick with Toews on Eichel to me.

2-0 after two.

Considering he has 5 PPGβs already, makes sense.
These two teams (Avs and Golden Knights) need to play again in the playoffs.
Considering what likely needs to happen for that to occur, Iβm assuming fans in some other cities would disagree, but weβre due for another playoff series with them.
Valeri Nichushkin is in turbo-mode to start this season.

Necas, 1-0
Everyone needs a hug, even NHL players. The Avalanche gave Martin Necas a big hug and a big chunk of change on Thursday.
Heβs not used to getting either of those.
βThatβs something new,β he said.
The Avs trust that he will hold up his end of the deal.

Eight more years of Martin Necas.
"Now I can just focus on playing hockey, winning hockey games, and do whatever it takes to bring a Cup back here to Colorado.β

With so much of the Necas extension coming in signing bonuses, asked MacFarland how that works with ownership.
"The usual answer is 'do what you feel is best for the team,' and of course, Nathan has a significant contract, hopefully Cale in the near future."
