Locked On Avalanche - Daily Podcast On The Colorado Avalanche

I have been on record that the NHL should have closed up shop and called it a season. Boy am I glad they didn't. We need sports now more than ever. Bowen Byram joined the Sports Social show and I discuss some of the things I pulled out of his interview. And if Nathan MacKinnon is an NHL Superstar, why doesn't he get the Superstar treatment on the ice like Sidney Crosby or Connor McDavid? Tune in and subscribe!

When the NHL does return to play they need to keep their players safe. The only way to do that is through daily testing of the coronavirus. Why that makes me nauseous despite it being necessary.

When the Avalanche hired Patrick Roy many thought that was a match made in hockey heaven. Roy left right before a new season was to start and left the Avs high and dry. But did he help them in the long term? Also the NHL looks like they are going to adopt a 24 team playoff and does that give the Avalanche a disadvantage? Tune in and subscribe!

The Colorado Avalanche were heavily in the mix for acquiring Devil's star Taylor Hall when he became available. In the end they didn't land him. But what if they had and what if this season doesn't continue? Would the Avs future be in jeopardy for a player that they would have hoped carried them to a Cup but would never even see the playoffs? Also, if the season does resume, the Avs will have a good problem to have. Too many healthy players. Who will be scratched from the lineup and who will remain? Tune in and subscribe!

Colin Wilson has been in the news this week for all the wrong reasons, but it has also brought up a big issue when it comes to the NHL and the LGBTQ community. Next season the Avs will most likely wear the Quebec Nordiques uniforms and I look into who exactly that game should be played against. Finally, the 2017 draft turned out to be a huge win for the Avs in selecting Cale Makar, but what if they had won the lottery that year? Would Cale still be in burgundy and blue?

The Colorado Avalanche have one of the best names in all of sport. That wasn't always the case as the ownership had a different, much worse name in mind when the team from Quebec moved to Colorado. Speaking of the Nordiques, after 25 years the Avalanche are talking about wearing the jersey of their former city next season. When and how many times is being discussed. The NHL postponed its Global Series and this of course has an impact on the Avs as they were scheduled to play a couple in Finland. Tune in and subscribe!

The Altitude network brings all the talent with them to provide us Avs fans with some sort of hockey as the Avalanche took on the Wild in the virtual world of the NHL and win it 2-1. An interesting take on how the Avs could actually benefit from how the NHL is proposing this years draft. Let's remember about a year ago when captain Gabe Landeskog took Game 6 from the Sharks in OT to set up the now infamous Game 7. Tune in and subscribe!
