From one moment to the next, the outlook on the Avalanche’s season can deteriorate from apprehension to hopelessness, or just as easily it can swivel from existential dread to ecstatic amnesia. The defending champion Avs are testing their fans on almost a nightly basis, as they simultaneously test their own resolve.
The game-winning goal was credited to Matthew Tkachuk, but the puck took an unlucky bounce off Evan Rodrigues’ skate with 10 seconds left on the power play as Florida hammered away at a defiant Alexandar Georgiev. “I didn’t like the sequence at all,” said Bednar, who also thought the interference call against Rantanen was a case of potential embellishment.
The more troubling issue: There was nothing flattering about how the defense conceded the goals. Nine minutes in, Anton Lundell entered the zone with a 1-on-2 dump and chase against Cale Makar and Devon Toews. The top pairing allowed Lundell to skate through them, Toews lost a battle for the puck in the trapezoid, and as Makar circled back to the net front, Alexandar Barkov arrived with Florida reinforcements. He got behind Cale Makar and backhanded the finish past Georgiev.
