10 Observations: The Power Play Clicked and Olofsson Hasn’t Stopped Shooting (+)

The Devils tested the Avalanche’s will on the power play. It was almost as if they gave the Avs and their struggling PP every opportunity to bend and break, so we can continue to talk about a failed unit loaded with talent that just can’t figure things out.

But that didn’t happen. Thankfully for Jared Bednar, Dave Hakstol, and the rest of the staff, the Avs’ top guys stepped up and answered every opportunity they got thrown their way.

The PP got them going; the PP separated them from New Jersey, and when things got a little too close for comfort, the PP shifted things back in their control.

Colorado won 8-4, and Victor Olofsson had an incredible performance. My observations, locker room interactions, and more from a goal-filled, entertaining battle between two of the NHL’s better clubs.
