The Colorado Avalanche revealed flashes of brilliance but disappointing results in the past week. Like Thanksgiving leftovers, it’s been a mixed bag.
THE GOOD
1. Thanksgiving leftovers are good, especially since you only have to reheat them.
2. Congratulations to Jarome Iginla who scored career goal 614 against the Vancouver Canucks! He now trails 15th ranked Joe Sakic by only 11 goals. Watch out, Joe!
3. Alternate Captain Nathan MacKinnon continues to impress. It’s been awhile since the Avalanche had a true first line center but MacKinnon’s skill and physical strength seem to be growing almost exponentially.
