In this show, James “Tapeleg” Gralian and I wrap up the 2013-14 season, we break down the series against the Wild, we discuss who’s up for postseason awards, we talk about who may be staying and who may be going, and we answer your #AskAHP questions.  Those topics and a whole lot more Avalanche stuff in episode #90 of The Avs Hockey Podcast.  Thanks for a great season Avalanche fans!

This is the Ryan O’Reilly edition of The AHP.  The Factor!

If you perhaps needed a reason to like Ryan O’Reilly more, here you go.  Loyal AHP fan Hersh O’Myster and his nephew go to many games together.  90 makes sure to make Chuddy part of his pre-game routine every time Chuddy is there.  Great stuff.

Teemu Selanne’s “victory lap” after his last regular season home game in Anaheim featured someone the Duck fans will always love, the Avalanche’s own J.S. Giguere.  Two champions and two class guys.

The Captain welcomes you to Denver.  Let’s Go Avs.

Game 1 vs. Wild: Paul Stastny for the tie.

Game 1 vs. Wild: Paul Stastny for the win!

Game 2 vs. Wild: Jared Spurgeon wasn’t quite prepared for the speed and the moves of Nathan MacKinnon.  Ouch.

Game 2 vs. Wild: One of the prettiest hockey goals you’ll ever see courtesy of 29, 26, and 92.

Game 3 vs. Wild: The talk of the game wasn’t the overtime thriller or Semyon Varlamov’s 45 saves, it was this “hit” by Matt Cooke on Tyson Barrie.

Game 4 vs. Wild: P.A. Parenteau for the tie.  This is John Forslund’s call from NBC Sports Network.

And Marc Moser’s radio call call from Altitude Sports and Entertainment.

And Nathan MacKinnon for the win!

Thanks again for a great season Avalanche fans.  Let’s do it again next season, shall we?

NHL.com picks Patrick Roy for the Jack Adams Trophy.  Sounds good to us.

In this show, James “Tapeleg” Gralian and I cover all the games since our last podcast (including some Olympic hockey), we honor Milan Hejduk and his career with the Avalanche, we discuss the possibility of an outdoor game to be hosted in Denver next season, and we showcase Semyon Varlamov’s new skill of making glove saves with no stick, a screen from his own defenseman, and his mask half on.  These topics and much more Avalanche and hockey stuff in episode #87 of The Avs Hockey Podcast.

Thank you, as always, for joining us Avalanche fans.

This is the Pierre Turgeon edition of The AHP.

Former teammates making sure that the memory of Elizabeth Turgeon lives on.

Patrick Bordeleau takes himself out of the play.  He’s been to the Jay Vean Hockey School for sure.

Matt Duchene takes a monkey off his back with this goal against the Nashville Predators.

The seemingly annual “Attendance Woes” column from the Denver Post, this year from Terry Frei.

James’ response on his blog to Frei’s column on attendance.

Another Ref Cam, this one from the Stadium Series game between the Rangers and Devils.

There is a possibility of a Stadium Series game here in Denver next season.

A New York Times article, by Pat Pickens, describing how Patrick Roy has changed this Avs team.

The slash which cost Erik Johnson two games.

Varly: Lack of a stick, a screen from Cory Sarich, and his mask being a mess was still not enough to keep him from making this glove save against the Phoenix Coyotes.

Where will Paul Stastny go, if anywhere?

The CBC helps us make some sense out of this season’s new playoff format.
