The guys are back following the Avalanche’s big 3-2 victory on the road in Vegas. J.J. Jerez is joined by Aarif Deen of Mile High Sports and Peter Baugh of The Athletic to discuss the inconsistent week that was for the Avs and if Saturday’s win was the wake-up call this team needed. The guys touch on Valeri Nichushkin’s hot start, Alexandar Georgiev’s big game, Evan Rodrigues getting more comfortable and the current top-six line combinations. They also share their thoughts on the new Reverse Retro 2.0 jerseys. All that and more on this Sunday edition of Hockey Mountain High: Your go-to Avalanche Podcast.
