Hang the banner! The Colorado Avalanche have won a preseason game!
All jokes aside, the Avs contained the pressure from the Vegas Golden Knights to wrap up a 3-1 win on the strip on Thursday night. It’s the first one of the preseason, with one more to go before the real deal begins.
The roster is starting to shape up with what we’ll see in less than a week against this same Vegas team for Opening Night. With the result, it’s nice to see the roster seemingly come together and get results along the way.
