COLORADO AVALANCHE VS. MIGHTY DUCKS of ANAHEIM Special Teams Avs’ Best Bet by ADRIAN DATER | the DENVER POST 8D The Denver Post g Friday, May 5, 2006 AVALANCHE COLORADO AVALANCHE VS. MIGHTY DUCKS OF ANAHEIM Special teams Avs’ best bet BY ADRIAN DATER | THE DENVER POST The Avalanche gets the edge in almost every category here, so it’ll be a blowout, right? Wrong. The Ducks showed they are a formidable team in knocking off Northwest Division champion Calgary in the first round. They also have the home-ice advantage in the series. But we saw how much home ice was worth to Western teams in the first round — zip. The Avs look a little deeper and a little more talented overall than the Mighty Ducks. It’ll be a close series, but the bet here is the Avs will find a way to win again. PREDICTION: AVALANCHE IN SIX GAMES THE AVS ADVANTAGE OFFENSE THE DUCKS Who would have believed the Avalanche of and balanced Mighty Ducks, Colorado needs 2006 would be a more potent offensive team another good series from usual suspects Joe than the one of 2003-04 that included Peter Sakic, Milan Hejduk and — maybe even more Forsberg, Paul Kariya and Teemu Selanne? than in the first round — Alex Tanguay. Alex Tanguay The new NHL rules are partly responsible The Ducks are led by, surprise, surprise: Jeff Vinnick for that, but these Avs are a deeper, more Selanne. The friendly Finn was awful for the Getty Images balanced offensive team than that so-called Avs in his one season here, but surgery to his “superstar” team. The addition of Steve knee helped him regain his speed. Center Konowalchuk for this series after he missed Andy McDonald had a terrific season, and most of the season makes the Avs even deeper. youngsters Chris Kunitz, Dustin Penner and Still, to have a chance of beating the quick Ryan Getzlaf were surprisingly good. ADVANTAGE DEFENSE Teemu Selanne Both teams have top-notch two-way round. Ruslan Salei is a good offensive Jeff Gross defensemen. The Avs have Rob Blake, and the defenseman for Anaheim, but the Avs proba- Getty Images Ducks have Scott Niedermayer. Who is bet- bly have a little more depth overall on the ter? It’s probably a toss-up. blue line. It will be interesting to see if the The Avs might have a little more offensive Avs bench Kurt Sauer in the series in favor of skill and mobility among the defensemen Bob Boughner or Jeff Finger. Sauer wound up with John-Michael Liles and Brett Clark con- in the doghouse after a turnover in Game 5 tinuing their superb play through the first against the Stars. Scott Niedermayer Jeff Gross Getty Images ADVANTAGE GOALTENDING Rob Blake Jose Theodore was decent in Games 1 was benched in favor of Bryzgalov in the first Nick Laham Getty Images through 4 against Dallas, and excellent in round, and watched as his former backup led Game 5. So he comes into the series with a lot Anaheim to a series victory over Calgary. of confidence for the Avalanche. Bryzgalov played well, but against a Will Anaheim continue to Flames team that had trouble scoring all stick with Ilya Bryzgalov against year. The Avs figure to give him a tougher the Avs? Jean-Sebastien Giguere challenge. ADVANTAGE SPECIAL TEAMS Anaheim’s special-teams statistics weren’t down low. The Avs’ power play seems to have especially gaudy in the regular season but jelled nicely in the postseason, with Hejduk were good in the first round. Salei and starting to get his game together and Blake Niedermayer are good point men, and firing bombs from the point. Konowalchuk’s Selanne has regained his sharpshooting skills addition should help the PK unit. COACHING ADVANTAGE : EVEN Jose Joel Quenneville outcoached his good — inserting rookie Wojtek Wolski onto the Theodore friend, Dave Tippett, in the first round, but it second line for Round 1 was proof. He has a Ronald Martinez won’t be easy to outmaneuver Ducks coach good feel for his team, and it plays hard for Getty Images Randy Carlyle — a former longtime NHL him. But the Ducks do the same for Carlyle, defenseman. who has guided a team nobody thought Ilja Bryzgalov Quenneville is bold with his line changes would get this far.

  • The Chicago Bears Chose Devin Hester with the 57Th Pick in the 2006 Draft,Nike Nfl Uniforms 2012, and They Got a Steal
    The Chicago Bears chose Devin Hester with the 57th pick in the 2006 draft,nike nfl uniforms 2012, and they got a steal. Hester is the best kick returner in the league,new nfl nike jerseys, and he has a chance to go down in history as the best kick returner ever. Every N.F.L. team would love to pick this year’s version of Devin Hester. But does this draft have a Devin Hester? One surprisingly bold player is willing to say it does, and he’s it: Troy cornerback Leodis McKelvin. The Vikings clearly were unconcerned about the risks of a huge second contract for a superstar running back. We discussed that issue this summer,nfl jersey monster,leaked nike nfl jerseys, noting the relatively short career spans for running backs and the recent examples of big-time runners whose production dipped dramatically after signing their second contracts. Peterson has tallied 1,334 touches in his career,womens football jerseys, including kickoff returns, but has missed only three of a possible 64 games and has had no off-field issues that would compromise his eligibility to play with the league. Most NFL observers consider Peterson and the Tennessee Titans' Chris Johnson as the co-best running backs in the league,football jersey creator, but Peterson's deal exceeds the one Johnson signed last month. Johnson's extension averaged $13.3 million in new money and included $30 million in guarantees.

  • Turnbull Hockey Pool For
    Turnbull Hockey Pool for Each year, Turnbull students participate in several fundraising initiatives, which we promote as a way to develop a sense of community, leadership and social responsibility within the students. Last year's grade 7 and 8 students put forth a great deal of effort campaigning friends and family members to join Turnbull's annual NHL hockey pool, raising a total of $1750 for a charity of their choice (the United Way). This year's group has decided to run the hockey pool for the benefit of Help Lesotho, an international development organization working in the AIDS-ravaged country of Lesotho in southern Africa. From www.helplesotho.org "Help Lesotho’s programs foster hope and motivation in those who are most in need: orphans, vulnerable children, at-risk youth and grandmothers. Our work targets root causes and community priorities, including literacy, youth leadership training, school twinning, child sponsorship and gender programming. Help Lesotho is an effective, sustainable organization that is working at the grass-roots level to support the next generation of leaders in Lesotho." Your participation in this year's NHL hockey pool is very much appreciated. We believe it will provide students and their friends and families an opportunity to have fun together while giving back to their community by raising awareness and funds for a great cause.
