Burgundy Radio

Steph, earl, and Jackie begrudgingly revisit a bunch of Avalanche losses that they held leads in over the past two weeks. Also, Cale Makar is back, trying to figure out what happened to the Three Headed Monster, and is there anyone alive who can fix the Avs' power play?

The Avs are on a 9-game points streak, even if this week was ugly. The gang talk about Pavel Francouz, making space on the blueline for.... Anton Lindholm? and Akim Aliu's blackface incident with the Eagles. Also, breaking down Taylor Hall trade destinations that aren't the Avs!

Valerie Nichushkin is a goal scorer now. We have no idea what to do with this information. Also, give Nathan MacKinnon the dang Hart already, whether the Avs trading for Taylor Hall is even a good idea, it's impossible for the Avs to lose in Boston, and a quick aside on hockey's culture problem coming to light. It lasts from 22:58-29:50 if you would like to avoid such topics.

This time, the Western Canada trip maybe didn't ruin the Avalanche, even though it tried very hard to? Also, the Avs call up a defender during the show, piecing together what's going wrong with team defense, Cale Makar remains Cale Makar, and we promise Burgundy Radio isn't sponsored. Pinky swear.

The Avs have lost several of their best players to injury and they just scored nine goals on the Predators anyway. We look at the bad bits, the good bits, and howl into the void that is the NHL rulebook over the past two weeks. Plus, a preview of what's coming up on the swing through western Canada!

The Avalanche had a week of extremes. We look at what went bad, what went good, and what was exceptional (spoiler: see title). Plus, earl has a new headset, how the power play suddenly started finding success, and NHL standings points math is hard.

Steph and the gang have a lot of good things to say about the Colorado Avalanche, given that they have 15 of 16 points, but they found some room for the team to grow too. Plus, what happens if you intentionally put too many skaters on the ice, and the Tampa Bay Lightning are at Steph's house, hungry for revenge!

Steph gets back together with earl, Jackie, and Rudo to party because the Colorado Avalanche won all 4 games of their homestand. Plus, impacts from new players, Pavel Francouz made his NHL starting debut, and the road trip gets a paper-tiger check!

Steph, earl, Jackie, and Rudo are ready for the regular season to start. Plus, so is Mikko Rantanen, what returning to the WHL means for Bowen Byram, and we predict everything from October to Cale Makar's Calder position!

Steph is back with Earl, Jackie, and Rudo! Half of us were at training camp and have some opinions. Also, the Bowen Byram Era, getting philosophical with Pierre-Edouard Bellmare, and please get Mikko signed.....

Steph, earl, Rudo, and tigervixxxen sit down to break down a confusing, contradictory Avalanche NHL free agency period... when a trade breaks.

The Avalanche made all their selections in the 2019 Entry Draft. Steph enlisted tigervixxxen, earl, and Rudo to tell you everything we like about them and everything we're worried about with them. Plus, we talk UFA targets, and earl is not, in fact, in orbit!

Everyone is here to celebrate the Avalanche season as it comes to a close. Plus, That Offsides Call, the Avs' MVP and unsung heroes, and Steph steals Jackie's question idea as if it were their own: Should the 2019-20 Colorado Avalanche be considered a contender?

Steph, earl, Jackie, and Rudo meet up between games 5 and 6 to try to figure out what went right when the Avalanche won and what went wrong when they fell to the Sharks. Also, which Avs player is the most cursed, one of us was Wrong about Phillip Grubauer, and seriously, who keeps hiring Tim Peel's crew?

Steph, earl, Jackie, and Rudo were left by the NHL scheduler with only 1 second round game to yell about, so they took the opportunity to, er, "preview" the remaining up-to-6 games, and find lessons in Game 1 for the Avs to learn from.

Sorry for the audio in the middle of this one. It gets better, I promise. Steph, earl, Jackie, and Vlad are back to run down the Avalanche's party at Calgary's expense this week! Plus, who is better than Nathan MacKinnon?, the gang can't stop gushing about Cale Makar, and is San Jose or Vegas a better second round opponent?

Steph, earl, and Jackie break down the madness from Game 1 and 2 of Colorado's first round series with the Calgary Flames, hype up Gabe Landeskog, and finally get an answer to the age-old question: Dude, where's Makar?

The Colorado Avalanche are playoffs bound! Steph, earl, Jackie, and Rudo explain how the Avs can make it out alive (or not). Plus, Stars and Scratches across the season, and the little moments that absolutely made this run possible!

Steph, earl, and Jackie are stoked the Avs have only left 1 standings point in the table over the last two weeks, but less so about exactly how they're doing it. Also, #MakarWatch, Bowers stays in school until he doesn't, and will Nathan MacKinnon reach 100 points?

Steph, earl, and Jackie meet up between games of the Avalanche's back to back with Chicago to try and figure out whether we can trust this winning streak or not. Plus, Grubauer is killing it, Shane Bowers may stay at BU, and the next step without Mikko Rantanen in the lineup!
