Players are back on the ice.
As a team, this time. Not in similarly-colored jerseys playing 3-on-3 hockey which we saw this past weekend at a less-than-memorable NHL All-Star Game.
While the Avs had Nathan MacKinnon, Mikko Rantanen, and Cale Makar representing the ‘A’ at the events, they fell in the final of the game to the Atlantic Division. And they didn’t have their Colorado Avalanche teammates with them to win out in the end.
Luckily, they’ll have the support of their teammates starting Tuesday evening against the Pittsburgh Penguins.
