The Avs are 5-0 to start the season with three wins against 2023 playoff teams, but several players and their coach feel there’s more improvement to come.
Colorado’s Andrew Cogliano , Logan O’Connor , Devon Toews and Cale Makar celebrate skating past the bench after O’Connor scored a short handed goal against the Carolina Hurricanes in the second period at Ball Arena October 21, 2023. The way several Avalanche players and their coach spoke Saturday night after a convincing victory to begin the season with five straight wins, it sounded as if they were disappointed their record wasn’t somehow six and negative one.
The win in Seattle was the worst process game of the young season, but Alexandar Georgiev was fantastic and a big shorthanded goal from Logan O’Connor was a turning point. The Avs still won that game by three goals. It was a theme during training camp — this franchise is hungry to win big again after a disappointing season. While every team in the history of sports has wanted to start every season strong, this club saw firsthand what a sluggish first half of a season can lead to in 2022-23.
Colorado has scored three times while shorthanded while allowing only one power-play goal. The Avs have been plenty dominant at even strength as well: They’re generating a league-best 58.05% of the shots on goal at 5-on-5 and are third in expected goals percentage, per Natural Stat Trick.Avalanche shut down Connor Bedard, dominate Blackhawks en route to fourth straight win
