I just wanted to break down the first goal from the Avs at Flames games Tuesday. Again, like the Ducks analysis (part 1 and part 2) here at JAHL, you just can’t find coverage like this in the mainstream media. Stick with the blogging label, folks.
Avs are on the power play, and the Flames have just scored a shorthanded goal. The score is 1-0 and we are in the final seconds of the first period.
Wolski has the puck and gives it to Joe Sakic
Sakic has the puck and is under pressure
Sakic passes to Clark
Clark winds and shoots
Arnason is in front of the goal, along with most of the Flames. Lots of traffic in front of Kiprusoff. Arnason does not touch the puck.
Puck goes in 5 hole! Avs goal!!!
The ref makes the call. It’s a power play goal.
Poor Kipper
The Avs celebrate the goal with only 12 seconds left in the period, while the Flames skate off to the bench.
If this were ESPN, you wouldn’t have seen that much setup of a goal. Remember, keep it here for more in depth analysis.
The Avs won the game 4-3, with Joe Sakic getting a goal and three assists. Another amazing game from Super Joe. Five points back of the Flames. The pinnacle of the season would be if the last game of the season, this Sunday, were to be the one that determines the final playoff slot.

Those are so adorable, are they by any chance edible?
Very.
Well that was way more action than I got to see than the first ten minutes of the game (when Altitude was having technical difficulties, so I had to listen to the Avs announcers call the game like it was radio).
I especially like Kipper’s mask
SWWEEEEEET!!!
Wow. I think I just got a cavity.
Too bad their fates will end up being the same ;D
You’re my hero!
That is just too cute! I absolutely love it!
