Twenty-four embarrassing clusterfucks games left in the season. I figured with all the issues surrounding this team that there had to be 24 questions we could come up with for discussion purposes. I know, lists are pretty low-effort, and I ask: Have you watched the team lately? (DISCLAIMER: I wrote this Tuesday morning, so if the Avs came out like gang-busters and put on a clinic of effort and will against the injury-riddled Pens, I redact about 34.8% of the above snark.) So in an effort to stop looking back, let's look forward...
- Will we ever see the bang-bang dance again, or has it gone the way of the Dodo?
- Will either of the two goalies currently alternating ballcaps every period be wearing Burgundy and Frostbite Blue next season?
- Will Dr. Jones move his practice?
- At what point does this season enter "Never Happened" mode?
- Are we going to blow the roof off of the Pepsi Center on Peter Forsberg Night (hopefully next season with mucho MHH attendence)?
- Is Adam Foote done?
- Is the solution to the blueline problems in the system or are the pieces in the system trade bait?
- If Brandon Yip is traded, will anyone ever wear #18 in Colorado again?
- Given this team's injury history, should Tomas Fleischmann be re-signed this summer?
- What will you do if the Avalanche are complete
sell-outssellers at the deadline (e.g. only picks and prospects coming back)?
- Is Joe Sacco on the hot seat?
- Do we have an active owner yet?
- What happened to Cody McLeod?
- What will be closer next season: the salary cap or the salary floor?
- If John-Michael Liles/Ryan O'Byrne and Kyle Quincey/Kevin Shattenkirk are your top 4 d-men next season, who are the bottom two?
- Do the Avs get Joey Hishon on the roster out of training camp next season?
- If Cameron Gaunce and Jonas Holos are ready for NHL duty, what happens to Ryan Wilson?
- Is Kevin Porter tendered a RFA contract? For NHL or AHL duty? Why?
- Does anybody else think the Joe Sakic shrine in the lockerroom is a little creepy?
- What's the over/under on total man-games lost to injury at the end of the season?
- Is Chris Stewart overpaid?
- What could we do better here at MHH for the rest of the season?
- Is Milan Hejduk going to hang them up?
- Is mediocrity all we have to look forward to next season?
