Morning Flurries: San Jose Felt the Bern, Avalanche move on up

I find it delightfully ironic that the Colorado Avalanche have a mascot named Bernie, eh?

Do you see what I did there?

I promise, I’ll stop.

Anyways, the Avalanche took home a tough but impressive 3-1 win on Tuesday night, rolling over the San Jose Sharks purely on goaltending.

They were outshot by a whopping 39 to 19 on the night, but Bernie(eh!) allowed just one goal to the two that Martin Jones let slip past. It was a confidence booster for the well-rested interim starter, who finally got his night off while Semyon Varlamov returned from injury in their last game.
