Mile High Hockey Yet again, I'm overlooking some solid work by el capitan Gabriel Landeskog in order to bring you a goal anatomy to feed you jaded Avalanche appetites. This time, morbidly-obese Jamie McGinn and PK linemate David van der Gulik bring the moans to the Left Coast Crowd with a hard-working goal with some spectacular sniping icing. We join the action juuuuuust as Paul Stastny exits the sin bin with a smidge over two-and-a-half minutes remaining in the 2nd frame. (Note to readers: If you go and watch the highlight at nhl.com, please prepare yourself for a typically horrific pronunciation of...

Denver Post Spotlight on Daniel Winnik: The former Avalanche forward is in his first season with Anaheim, after Colorado traded him to San Jose last season in the deal that brought Jamie McGinn and prospects to Denver.

Mile High Hockey The healed David Jones and the well-fed Jamie McGinn threw a couple big hits to do their best to get the Avalanche off to a "good start" [I think that phrase may not mean what Sacco thinks it means] and it looked like the Avs were committed to efforting™ their way to the first goal. But a late hit by Patrick Bordeleau well after the whistle put Calgary on their 2nd power play of the game just 7+ minutes in. If this game mattered I'd be upset with Bordeleau for that blatant infraction, but since this game holds as much significance as a Justin Bieber song, I enjoyed Bordy's over zealous...
Colorado Avalanche April 8, 2013Denver Post Jamie McGinn has an unwelcome minus-13 beside his name, the worst rating on the team, but in a season when no Avalanche player is pleased with how things have gone, McGinn has at least come to girps with how he needs to play.
Colorado Avalanche April 5, 2013All Things Avs | Denver Post DALLAS – Morning from Big D. Avs and Stars tonight, and here is the latest lineup news for the visitors: David Jones and Jamie McGinn will both return to the lineup. Milan Hejduk will be a healthy scratch, and coach Joe Sacco is still deciding, as I write, who the other scratch will be for [...]

Mile High Hockey Joe Sacco made a lot of people a lot of angry when he announced Jamie McGinn would be a healthy scratch for the game against Dallas on Wednesday. (He also scratched David Jones, but David Jones has been bad, so presumably the only people angry were the people paying tens of thousands of dollars for a guy not in the lineup.) The general sentiment was he helps drive the first line to success, he puts a lot of shots on and at net, he creates space for Matt Duchene and P.A. Parenteau, he plays physical, and so forth. Of course the scratch can also be explained by the fact that, in the last...
Colorado Avalanche March 22, 2013All Things Avs | Denver Post When Joe Sacco announced this morning that David Jones and Jamie McGinn would be healthy scratches, these were a few of the tweets sent out (names of tweeters not included): - can sacco be a healthy scratch, maybe get someone in there who can provide the team with something? - this is pathetic. Tell Sacco [...]

Mile High Hockey A heart-stopping game got off to an inauspicious start thanks to NBCSN's super sweet Rivalry Night double-header coverage, the first 3 and 1/2 minutes of the Avs Game was preempted by the finale of the Penguins/Flyers game (an actual rivalry). Brian Engblom said that Jamie McGinn hit a post during those mythical minutes, but I guess we'll never know.... What we did see though when the game finally found airwaves was Parenteau hitting McGinn on a partial breakaway that was thwarted right in front of Blues' netminder, Jaroslav Halak (returning from a groin injury that has sidelined him s...
