I was going to put time into sorting the roster out etc. before starting this but I though screw it, I'll keep the original rosters because I was too eager to get this going.
vs. Avs Demolish Bruins in Season OpenerOctober 9th, 2008The Colorado Avalanche tonight showed that they are a real contender this season. In a fast paced, hard hitting game of hockey, the Bruins had no answer for the Avs' bullet like shooting from outside the slot. The Bruins did manage to score a goal in every period, but Colorado were just phenomenal, scoring 2 goals in both the first and second periods and in the last scoring 4 unanswered. The last period was embarrassing for the Bruins, with Boston's goaltender Manny Fernandez seemingly the size of a boxcar as the Avs were piercing him and scoring left, right and center. Joe Sakic was by far the best on the ice, scoring a hat-trick, with 2 of his goals coming in under a minute during the third period. Final ScoreCOL - 8 BOS - 3 3 Stars1. Joe Sakic (COL) - 3G - 2A 2. Wojtek Wolski (COL) - 2G - 1A 3. John-Michael Liles (COL) - 3A

vs. Edmonton Crush the Disappointing AvalancheOctober 12th, 2008Colorado's 'Avalanche' tag fitted well tonight after the Oilers fended off a ridiculous number of shots from Colorado as well as going on a scoring flurry to defeat the Avs in what turned out to be a blow out. The game started off as a very even tussle with both teams struggling to find net for the first 13 minutes or so, before Edmonton's Eric Cole scored, followed by another from Dustin Penner. The second period was kinder to the Avalanche, with them winning the period 2 goals to 1, but still trailing 3 goals to 2. The third period was where it blew out, with the Oilers scoring twice and shutting down any Avs offense, forcing them to make rash shots from unrealistic spots. Dustin Penner's goal with just 23 seconds left put the icing on a very sweet Edmonton cake. Final ScoreEDM - 5 COL - 2 3 Stars1. Dustin Penner (EDM) - 3G 2. Dwayne Rolson (EDM) - 28S 3. Ales Hemsky (EDM) - 2A
