Looking Forward To Playing Sharks

from All Things Avs,

What better place to be than Northern California, this or any time of year? That’s my best bet for where the Avs will open up, at the H-P Pavilion against the Sharks.

A quick couple of thoughts here before the ambien fully kicks in: I think the Avs would be better off playing the Sharks in the first round, instead of Minnesota. I know San Jose has been the hottest team in the West in the second half, and that their defense was transformed with the addition of Bryan Campbell, and Joe Thornton is a monster and Patrick Marleau has been a lot better. I get that.

I still think that’s the best matchup for Colorado. I don’t think the Avs fear Evgeni Nabokov much. I think, of the top eight teams in the West, he is in the middle of the pack among goalies.
