With the playoffs right around the corner, the Colorado Avalanche have things they are confident in, and things they have concern over. We will tackle the confidence category tomorrow, but for today we look at where the Avs could have concern during their opening round matchup in the playoffs.
We also take a look at episode 4 of the Gabriel Landeskog documentary, the most emotional one yet.

One thing is for certain when Dallas plays the Av’s. There is going to one very very good team having an extended summer vacation.
well done video
Great show guys…
I also want to add, that everything resets for the playoffs. So we have to just play hard, and fight till the last buzzer.
I really hate that our first round is going to be Dallas, but we have too much talent to not be contenders.
My number 1 concern for the playoffs….
The defense and how they perform in front of the net. We need better decisions being made there
Dallas without Miro h will struggle mightily against the AVS, Dallas has been allowing 40 shots a game to bad teams. Don’t worry your good
One of my biggest concerns is that the Avs will have to much time off before the playoffs start. Avs sometimes show rust when they are on longer breaks.
I'm so proud of Lande. I can't wait to see him out there.
Hockey players say what they are expected to say; I wonder if Cale hasn't had more feelings about what happened than he is willing to commit to on camera. Or even out loud. On a human level, I have to think he has had some dark thoughts about what happened. It's very healthy that he doesn't blame himself, though.
Seeing Gabe crying in a corner hallway at the home opener was heart wrenching. I cannot wait to see him back on the ice. And I don't think it's going to be for two shifts and done. 💪
Wedge has impressed me. I have more confidence in him in net. He looks calmer.
Avalanche are not playing well. I believe Dallas will Destroy them.
Nuke stays for this run and we go to the cup.
Also, Necas' numbers arent horrible in playoffs especially being in CAR who under utilized him. I watched pretty much every Canes run cause I like them and the last few years Necas was noticeable out there.
Goalies I am not worried about while the NHL has had many unproven goalies go on cup runs in playoffs. Blackwood wants it and is probably on the same level as Kuemper is going into 2022.
Overall, a lot of these Avs "issues" right now are just the end of season lull they always go in because they know their playoff position. The first round in generally the Avs best round where they are popping off, so that is why I want a no Miro or hurt Miro Dallas off the bat. They are getting outplayed in every single damn game and no way is that sustainable in a 7 game series vs a high power Avs offense with Mack/Makar
If the Avs play like they have, they will get steamrolled. They play bad defense and then can’t figured out the packed in defense and it will only get tougher. Dallas plays good structure and sadly has better goaltending.
It tookKadri 3 years to get it together. Give Nichushkin a chance to prove himself.
I’m a Stars fan and I hate saying this but the Stars are frauds this year. Y’all have nothing to worry about in the first round. Y’all will sweep us or win in 5 at the least.
Idc it was Makar’s skate I’m still gonna blame Jamie Benn
No one but Val and maybe a few people close to him have any idea what's in his mind. Recovery is always a day to day thing….for decades. That doesn't mean it is a cliff-edge struggle every day.
