Also, several Avalanche still have something to play for.
While the Colorado Avalanche are on hiatus, the accolades keep rolling in as four members of the burgundy and blue were named the NHL’s quarter-century team. It should come as no surprise that current Avalanche superstars Cale Makar and Nathan MacKinnon were selected joining Avalanche legends and Hall of Famers Joe Sakic and Patrick Roy.

It’s been very quiet around the team while they lick their wounds and prepare for a summer of transactions for the coming season. But one player took the time to give an interview following their ousting. Listen to Devon Toews cover a range of topics from Colorado’s elimination to Mikko Rantanen and more below.
Two Avalanche players are keeping the party going in Sweden as they participate in the World Championship. Nathan MacKinnon is leading Canada with 10 points including six goals in five games as well as Martin Nečas with four points and two goals in four contests. The round-robin portion of the tournament concludes this week with games which will impact seeding with Canada taking on Finland and Sweden, the Czech Republic will face Germany and team USA.

Finally, we can’t forget the Colorado Eagles are continuing play for the Avalanche organization as they currently are in their third round (of five) AHL playoff series against the Abbotsford Canucks. It is a best-of-five this round and the first two games were played on the road. Last night the Eagles evened the series 1-1 with a 5-3 win which even saw Ivan Ivan score the game winning goal. The series will resume on Wednesday in Loveland for Game 3.
