Avalanche Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)
Even when the Avalanche has played well lately, it hasn't been able to secure a win and a much-needed two points as the games get more difficult and the possibility of earning a playoff berth seems more remote. The outcomes don't figure to improve any time soon until this team finds a way to score more than two goals in a game. The Avalanche has failed to reach the three-goal mark in five consecutive games and has lost them all, four in regulation before Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to Vancouver on a day when victory seemed all but assured. Canucks defenseman Kevin Bieksa dived to the ice to prevent Avalanche left wing TJ Galiardi from scoring into an empty net with 48 seconds remaining in the third period and scored to tie the game with 34.1 seconds left. ... |

In 2008, Sam Gagner had a front row seat for Andrew Cogliano’s record setting run that started on March 7 and ended a hard-to-fathom three overtime games later. When the tables turned this week, and Gagner was the talk of the NHL, Cogliano was keeping tabs from his new home in Anaheim. |

Gagner breaks out as Oilers thump Blackhawks (The Edmonton Journal)
In the end, Sam Gagner’s legs gave out before his sizzling hot hands.

Wild's Backstrom steps up (Yahoo! Sports)
What happened Thursday in Colorado was very encouraging for the Minnesota Wild. If Minnesota is going to continue to win, to be a factor in the Western Conference playoff race, it isn't going to happen with a blizzard of goals. |
Slumping Avs must come up big against division rivals (Yahoo! Sports)
Unless the Colorado Avalanche find a way to defrost an offense that has gone into the deep freeze, it can forget about making a push for a Western Conference playoff position in the remaining 29 games. Colorado has scored a total of six goals during a four-game losing streak and... |

MacKinnon: Belanger pursues lucky No. 13 (The Edmonton Journal)
Eric Belanger didn’t just shoot the puck into an opponent’s net Tuesday night for the first time all season, he made it look easy, natural as you please. Since it was just the second goal all year for the capable 34-year-old veteran two-way centre, rest assured the goals have not come easily in his first season with the Edmonton Oilers. |
