Stayin’ alive. The Avalanche have forced a Game 6 in their best-of-7 Stanley Cup playoff series, and Gabriel Landeskog remains positive they can win Wednesday and make it to a Game 7. “We’re going to do everything we can to keep this thing going,” the captain said Tuesday. The Av...
It’s another elimination game for the Avalanche on Wednesday, as the Avalanche trail the Dallas Stars 3-2 in the best-of-7 Stanley Cup playoff series. Win Game 6 and play a decisive Game 7 on Friday; lose and head home from the Edmonton bubble. GAME NOTES “We’re still sitting in a plac...
UPDATE: 2 p.m. MT START Have to admit I thought it was over for the Avalanche after they lost Game 4 to drop into a 3-1 hole in their best-of-7 Stanley Cup playoff series with the Dallas Stars. Yet here we are, looking forward to a decisive Game 7 on Friday following a 4-1 win on Wednesday....
Another Game 7 disappointment for the Avalanche.

In what could turn out to be a hat trick of NHL awards for Nathan MacKinnon, the Avalanche center on Friday was announced as the winner of the Lady Byng Award. The award goes to the player deemed to have “exhibited the best type of sportsmanship and gentlemanly conduct combined with a high stan...
I have to think the best is yet to come for Nathan MacKinnon, which is saying a lot. He’s reached the 90-point mark three years in a row and came within seven points of hitting the century milestone this season despite playing in 69 games. He missed what turned out to be the season finale March...
The NHL announced on Friday that it will reveal the winners of the final five regular-season awards on Monday during a 30-minute show that will be broadcast at 6:30 p.m. ET. The show will air on NBCSN in the U.S., and on Sportsnet and TVA Sports in Canada. It will be broadcast from Rogers Plac...
Cale Makar was announced as the Calder Trophy winner on Monday as the NHL’s rookie of the year, but Edmonton’s Leon Draisaitl beat out Nathan MacKinnon for the Hart Trophy as league MVP and the Ted Lindsay Award as most outstanding player. Makar was named to the all-rookie team (obviously) an...
