Recap: Avs crumble to Islanders for third straight loss

The Colorado Avalanche lost its third straight game to open the 2024-25 campaign, this time at the hands of the New York Islanders 6-2. Things are just not going Colorado’s way at the moment, and it’s glaring.

For the first time since the 2008-09 season, the Avs have started the season 0-3. But some good news: Alexandar Georgiev made it to the third period for the first time this season. Plus some food for thought: when Colorado won the Stanley Cup in 2022, they started the season 1-4. There’s a long way to go, but a lot needs attention first after this one.
