The Colorado Avalanche dropped their first preseason game against the Vegas Golden Knights. I don’t like this new preseason ritual of getting blown out at home by the Knights. Last season the Avs lost 4-1. This season, they lost 5-1.
That said, Colorado also beat Vegas at their home to conclude the preseason, so I’m fine with keeping that tradition alive at least. (The Avs aren’t finishing the preseason in Vegas this year — they play in Vegas in September 24.)
Anyway, in our preview post, we posed three questions. Let’s see what answers we came up with.
