Nathan MacKinnon and the Avalanche fall flat with a terrible effort on their east road trip - Hockey Mountain High

Mile High Sports — Wed, 21 Oct 2026 21:15:00 GMT

If Nathan MacKinnon has more games like this road trip, the Avs are going to be in trouble. The Avalanche lost two very winnable games on their east coast back to back, losing 3-2 to the Philadelphia Flyers and 4-3 to the New Jersey Devils, two scores that really let them off the hook for their effort. The Avalanche have a record of 5-4-1 through their first ten games, historically in line with their past seasons, so where do they from here?

A Back to Back of Bad Play From the Colorado Avalanche Raises Some Concern

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 21 Oct 2026 04:00:00 GMT

Colorado Avalanche stumble with back-to-back losses, raising concerns as scoring woes continue and star forward Nathan MacKinnon battles through an uncharacteristic slump. Are these early struggles a sign of deeper issues, or just a brief October hiccup for a roster packed with talent?

Hosts Chris Micieli and Zach Pearson break down the Avalanche’s disappointing 4-3 defeat to the New Jersey Devils, questioning the team’s lackluster offense, shot generation, and reliance on late goals from Artturi Lehkonen. The discussion spotlights Scott Wedgewood’s stellar goaltending, the impact of missing depth like Logan O’Connor, and how tweaks to the lineup (including the much-maligned 11-and-7 format) have disrupted Colorado's flow. With fans voicing frustration and soundcheck selections capturing the team's mood, the episode explores whether adversity now could build resilience for another Stanley Cup run—or expose cracks the Avs need to fix fast.

Game 9: Avs Start Late Again, Philly Holds Off Push

Kroenke Sports and Entertainment — Tue, 20 Oct 2026 02:19:28 GMT

An Ugly 1st Period Followed By A Solid 40 Minutes Leads Avalanche Win Over Penguins

Locked On Podcast Network — Mon, 19 Oct 2026 04:00:00 GMT

Colorado Avalanche overpower the Pittsburgh Penguins as Nathan MacKinnon claims the spotlight from Sidney Crosby with a dominant four-point night. Is this the captain’s season to lead the Avs on another championship run?

Chris Micieli and Zach Pearson break down Colorado’s 5-2 victory, highlighting Artturi Lehkonen’s surge in goal scoring and T.J. Hughes’ breakthrough moment. Analysis focuses on the Avalanche’s rough first period, their offensive explosion in the second, and adjustments to the power play under new coach Brett MacLean. The hosts debate whether Lehkonen’s contract year performance will price him out of Colorado and preview the upcoming matchup against the struggling Philadelphia Flyers. Can the Avs sustain their momentum and display a complete 60-minute game?
