Colorado Avalanche Post to Post: Best Regular Season Week 10 Social Media

The Colorado Avalanche have returned from a four game road trip with four points in the bag. We look at the best social media posts over the past week.

The Colorado Avalanche road trip started in Detroit and some of the players talked about their early memories of the rivalry between the Avalanche and the Red Wings.

Things got a little feisty towards the end of the Red Wings game, resulting in Tyler Bertuzzi receiving a two game suspension for hitting Matt Calvert from the bench. Ian Cole retaliated swiftly for the attack on Calvert and it was hard for the media team to stay impartial.

Ian Cole sat down with Kyle Keefe the next day to talk about fighting.

It’s nice to see the two goalies showing each other some love.

It’s always fun to see the team having a bit of fun behind the scenes. Mikko Rantanen still leads the league in points and assists, but that won’t stop him trying to pull a silly face for the camera (even if it’s actually a video).

Gabriel Landeskog and Erik Johnson paused for a quick photo, that was also actually a video.

The latest episode of the Avs podcast dropped prior to the game in Pittsburgh, with Conor McGahey standing in for Lauren Gardener. It’s definitely an interesting listen. They break down the play, talk about where improvements can be made, and have a discussion about the differences in the size of crew that the Avs and the Broncos take on the road with them.

Tyson Barrie returned to the lineup after missing four games due to injury. This is an absolutely stunning photo.

Our very own Callie was immortalized in gif form during the Pittsburgh game.

There was a small incident during warm-ups in Florida, and Gabe and Mikko had to pay penance.

Weird goals still count, and that’s all that matters. I love the little aside comments on the play like this.

It’s a well known fact that hockey players are superstitious. Evidently that goes for the media team as well. I’m definitely on board with this being something that always happens.

Tyson Barrie accidently hit Gabriel Landeskog with the puck during the game in Florida. Gabe had a few thoughts (and a smile) to share.

There was much discussion over who was to blame for the collision during warm-ups. The only way to settle the matter once and for all is by Twitter poll, of course.

Several players weighed in with their opinion.

Meanwhile Ian Cole was only concerned that the incorrect number of penalty push-ups had been done.

The debate continued through to practice in Tampa the next day

It transpires that the Twitter poll was EJ’s idea. Which shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone.

Tyson Barrie really is very photogenic.

Sadly EJ’s bus superstition didn’t last long. Since the team lost in Tampa maybe he’ll rethink this decision and go back to getting off the bus backwards.

A review of the road trip now that the team is back in Denver.

The team have a mixed week ahead of them. Starting at home before heading back on the road for a game before returning home again. We’ll be back next week to look at the best social media posts.
