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.

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.

In this show, James “Tapeleg” Gralian and I discuss: the Avalanche’s hot start, Patrick Roy’s debut as the Avs’ head coach, and we give Cody McLeod credit for playing in his 400th game in the NHL as well as talk about his hit on Detroit’s Niklas Kronwall.  Those topics and a whole lot more Avs and hockey stuff are included in episode #83 of The Avs Hockey Podcast.

The audio quality of this show, as James explains in the intro, isn’t what we or you are used to on The AHP, but it was the best we could do and it’s way better than nothing.

Welcome to the season, thanks for joining us, and Let’s Go Avs!
