Listen to “Jack Johnson Is Back” on Spreaker.
Aarif Deen of Mile High Sports and Peter Baugh of The Athletic are back to kick off the show with the Avs re-acquiring Jack Johnson from the Chicago Blackhawks for Andreas Englund. They discuss why they feel the team made the move, particularly Englund’s departure. They also break down Colorado’s five-game winning streak and how the team, and starting goalie, have suddenly looked more polished. The show ends with a league-wide trade round-up and some quick thoughts on Nazem Kadri’s return and the standing ovation he got from Avs faithful. All that and more on this Sunday edition of Hockey Mountain High: Your go-to Avalanche Podcast.
