Avalanche hockey returns in the preseason format. The Colorado Avalanche took the ice for the first time this preseason against the Minnesota Wild, and while the final score (4-3 loss) never matters in the preseason, there of course were good and bad things to take out of the matchup.
The good for the Avs? The Ross Colton, Miles Wood and Tomas Tatar line is going to be problems for opposing teams. It might take a few games for the three of them to get fully on the same page, but once they do you can see how they will cause fits on both ends of the ice.
Riley Tufte is not making it easy for Jared Bednar. Tufte is making a strong case for himself to be inserted into the opening day roster. And if the Avs have an injury that they feel might be better to sit a player out a few more games or weeks, you can be certain Tufte will be the guy to hold that spot.

ty cant wait for more.
Is it just me or does Chris not sound like Chris today???
Jack Johnson was wearing the "A" patch on the ice so of course he was playing cocky. This Exhibition game was more of a college game than a NHL game. Until the final 2 games of the Exhibition season we be seeing more of these college game style games.
Tufte looked good, he played a good game, i also like the size.
Oh, did the Broncos play yesterday? I didn't think so.
Watched the first 10 mins and the Colton, Wood and Tatar line was indeed impressive. There was a lot of talk about the Wood contract being too much money and too long but I think it’s going to look like a steal of a bargain as the season progresses.
