Well, here we are again. The end of another year. The Avs are currently sitting in 11th and 1 point out of the 8th and final playoff spot.

Now you may all be thinking that’s great news, and it is probably a really good thing, but with the beginning of January starting tomorrow, the Avs are going to face one hard month of hockey.

Is it sad to say that i would rather see the Avs just straight up lose a game then to watch them lose the way they did last night?

He has only played 4 games in the NHL so far since being called up from Lake Erie due to Erik Johnson being placed on IR, with a groin injury. But in those 4 games we are seeing why Elliot was drafted in the 2nd round (49th Overall) in the 2009 draft by the Avs.

Avs- 26 GP- 12-13-1 record- 25 pts- 2 game win streak.

What a season 20 year old Ryan O’Reilly is having for the Avalanche. 26 games into the season, he is now leading the Avs in points with 19,(4 goals, 15 assists).
