In this podcast, James “Tapeleg” Gralian and Jay discuss the seemingly endless stream of injuries this season, they review the new destinations for some familiar names, and James rudely triggers Jay on purpose. Those topics and much more Avs and hockey stuff coming at you in episode #143 of the Avs Hockey Podcast. It was us you were looking for, friends.

A TJ Galiardi mention means a post of him getting hit in the stuff. It’s tradition.
A very unique sequence in Colorado.

Mat Barzal was being called for a trip on Cale Makar.

Makar signaled to the Referee that he fell on his own, causing the ref to change the call to no penalty.

December 19: Cale Makar once again puts his arrogance on full display against the Islanders.
Here’s is Linus Ullmark’s goal he scored on February 25. This is mentioned in this show.
Also mentioned in this show, from the same game as above, Wes McCauley drops Brad Marchand in the corner.
And it’s never a bad time to revisit Ilya Bryzgalov’s best quote (of the many he had.)

June 14, 2022 z – The Avs Hockey Podcast, Episode #139

In this (in AHP terms) historic podcast, James “Tapeleg” Gralian and Jay talk about the Blues and Oilers series, they revisit the exhaustive list of playoff hockey clichés, and they make absolutely no predictions because everyone knows exactly what we want to see happen in the Stanley Cup Final. Those topics and much more Avs and hockey stuff in episode #139 of The Avs Hockey Podcast. Four wins away, friends!

Darren Helm becomes an Avalanche playoff legend with this series-clinching goal late in game six against the Blues.

Evander Kane’s hit on Nazem Kadri early in game three in the Western Conference Final against Edmonton. Kane was suspended for game four. Kadri was sent back to Denver, had surgery on his right thumb, and has been ruled out indefinitely.

Artturi Lehkonen sends his team to the Stanley Cup Final (for the second straight season) with a series-clinching goal in overtime.

Episode number 139 of course means that there is a T.J. Galiardi mention in the show. No one got hit downstairs more as an Avalanche player. Here’s one of the many examples of this fact.

Cale Makar ends game two in overtime against the Preds on May 5. This was his 12th shot on goal during the game which set a new Avalanche franchise playoff record.

Andre Burakovsky scores to give the Avalanche an early 1-0 lead during game four on May 9th. Thank goodness for replay.

Things that will make you smile: @Joshmanson42 being mic'd up for his OT winner. 😌 #StanleyCup pic.twitter.com/z1Ss0gqLqI— NHL (@NHL) May 18, 2022
TNT mic’d up Josh Manson for game one against the Blues on May 17. This could not have worked out better from a television perspective.

April 04, 2022 The Avs Hockey Podcast, Episode #136

In this show, James “Tapeleg” Gralian and Jay talk about Cale Makar’s greatness according to us (as well as his teammates), who should and who shouldn’t be dropping the gloves to protect their teammates, and they also break down the moves the Avalanche made at the trade deadline. Those topics and much more Avs and hockey stuff coming at you in episode number 136 of The Avs Hockey Podcast. Buckle up for the final stretch before the playoffs, friends.

Defenseman Josh Manson is working on being strategic with the feedback he gives Cale Makar. Great stuff.

Jay thinks the honkage on this goal should have began when Cale Makar picked up the puck at the blue line.

Minnesota’s Matt Dumba went for the big hit Mikko Rantanen and Nathan MacKinnon didn’t hesitate to stick up for his teammate. MacKinnon ended up missing the next game. Should MacKinnon, Gabe Landeskog, or Nazem Kadri be fighting right now?

Shout out to Pierre Lacroix’s niece for hooking Jay’s Dad up with a couple Lacroix night warm-up pucks.
