Meet Your First Round Adversary
NAME: Colorado Avalanche
SPECIES: Yeti/Abominable Snow Man/ Mystery Snow Beast
KNOWN COLOR PREFERENCES: Burgundy, Steel Blue, Black, Silver, White
STRENGHTS: Ability to breath well in thin air. May fling snowy poo. Have a pretty good goaltender and a young team. Came out of nowhere to be one of the best teams in the first half of the regular season. Speed. Dangerous on the transition. Have been known to annoy the hell out of the Sharks blueline.
WEAKNESSES: Warm weather. Youth could also be a potential negative factor. Their starter, while good, is a backup by trade and may be pretty worn out after a grueling regular season run. Too much water. Sustained exposure to direct sunlight.
KEY INJURIES:
Jones: Likely out of line up for game 1. Knee.
Mueller: Suffering from a concussion. Return date questionable.
