I would say this Colorado Avalanche season was memorable. Despite the slow start, and a few weaknesses that prevented them from reaching the playoffs, there were plenty of standout moments.
How about Jarome Iginla leading the team with 29 goals? Ryan O’Reilly putting up points like a maniac over the final six weeks of the season was pretty awesome, right? Oh yeah, and that young stunner, Calvin Pickard. He surprised a few of you guys, and won over some fans this season too I’m sure.
At Mile High Sticking, our goal in these next couple of days is to celebrate the Avalanche season, as we get used to the reality that we won’t be watching our Avalanche play until next fall. There will be plenty of time to break down the team, analyze draft prospects, swoon over free agents, and look to the future.
For now, let’s just sit back and enjoy the top 5 moments of the 2014-15 season.
