Avalanche Game 34 Recap: 'Twas Two Night Before Christmas

The Colorado Avalanche hosted the Arizona Coyotes on the NHL's last evening before the Christmas break

By Clyde E. DawkinsPublished 6 months ago 1 min read

'Twas two nights before Christmas

And as we all know very well

32 teams are stirring

In the epic NHL

* * *

One team in particular

From the state of Colorado

We're looking for a repeat

Of two years ago

* * *

The Avalanche are coming off

One of many comeback wins

Just two days prior

Against the Ottawa Sens

* * *

Avs face the Coyotes

In Game 34

We had 21 wins

Now we want more

* * *

Georgiev vs Ingram

Was the goaltender battle

He would definitely stand strong

And would not rattle

* * *

The Avs had a power play

But after an Arizona kill

Bowen Byram's shot

Made it one to nil

* * *

The Avs led 1-0

After the first 20

But in Period #2

There were Avs goals a plenty

* * *

On Manson, on Olofsson

On Valeri Nichushkin!

All of their shots

Went all the way in

* * *

Four goals for the Avs

While the Yotes still had none

Every Avalanche fan

Enjoyed all of the fun

* * *

Period 3 was very quiet

Other than the lone Arizona tally

But that would be all

There would be no rally

* * *

The Avalanche won

Four goals to one

And in just a few days

They'll face off in the desert sun

* * *

Another great show

From the great Alexandar

Now can we please stop

This undeserved slander?

* * *

As for Nathan MacKinnon

It was very keen

As his point streak now reaches

Game #18

* * *

If those NHL voters

Were really smart

They'd know that MacKinnon

Deserves the Trophy of Hart

* * *

Another win in the books

There will be more

As we continue our pursuit

Of Cup #4

* * *

So I'll end this ditty

With these words we all know

Merry Christmas to all

And Go Avs Go!
