Things You Should Click On

Our favorite number four in Colorado Avalanche history: Rob Blake

Number four could do it all.

A gassed Nathan MacKinnon scores a big shorthanded first period goal against the Bruins in Boston on December 8, 2016.

Matt Duchene scores another “lucky” road goal this season.  This made ten goals on the road in ten road games played for number 9.
