Listen to “Around the League in 3 minutes or Less” on Spreaker.
The NHL standings on Thanksgiving have traditionally given us a good sense of which teams are well-positioned to earn a playoff spot in the spring. Aarif Deen and J.J. Jerez take a peak at the standings and spend three minutes on every Central Division team and one minute on the remaining 24 teams to discuss which are contenders and which are pretenders. The guys kick off the show first with a quick recap of the Avs’ 3-2 shootout victory in Dallas on Monday. All that and more on this long holiday edition of Hockey Mountain High: Your go-to Avalanche Podcast.
