The Avalanche started their road trip on the right foot and Devon Toews was yet again a key offensive contributor. In Winnipeg, the Jets defeated New Jersey even though Connor Hellebuyck didn’t play. Two of the guys they got for their old goalie played big parts in it. Also, another top player is reportedly looking for a fresh start elsewhere.
All that and more on this edition of Deen’s Daily — November 11.
The Avalanche had a good game on the road, something they definitely want to build on as the road trip continues. Among the leaders in Toronto was Devon Toews, who continues to play at an offensive pace that could shatter his career bests.
Toews wasn’t the only veteran to step up. Colorado got contributions from several other seasoned vets on the roster.
Regardless, it’s just going to drag on for another year now. But in the first meeting since the trade, with Hellebuyck serving as backup, the Devils lost to Nico Daws and Dawson Mercer, both of whom were key pieces in the Jets’ 4-2 win. So much for that whole “reduction in expected win probability” nonsense, eh?
