Colorado Avalanche Coaching (and Playing) Starting to Fail

The Colorado Avalanche “playoff push” has consisted of a 4-5-1 record in the last 10 games. The California road trip, in which the team played two of the three teams they’re fighting for a playoff spot, consisted of 0-2-1 record. Their last two weeks (starting with the home and home against Vegas) of play has been 1-4-2.

What kind of playoff push is that?

I’ll tell you what kind of playoff push it is — the exact same kind as they displayed at the end of the 2015-16 season. The Avalanche went 1-8-0 to freefall right out of a playoff spot.
