Splitstville: Avalanche at Wild

USA TODAY Sports

As you can see from these numbers, the Avalanche don't traditionally put up many points against the Wild, which can mostly be attributed to the boredom coma. This has been proven by science.

This is the part of the program where I remind everyone that Minnesota native Erik Johnson has been completely inept against the Wild. But, hey, at least the young guys like Tyson Barrie and Stefan Elliott have done fairly well against them. Yes, I'm trolling.

No boredom coma for Varly (although that one L was the opening night 4-goal loss to Minnesota
