Hopefully they leave something behind.... - Author: Adam Selvig - Tags: Game Coverage, #chorus, #Import 2023-04-05 11:15 After winning 3 games in a row, last week ended with a loss to the [New York Rangers](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/new-york-rangers?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com). Sucks to them but hey, it happens. It's also a yearly tradition for garbage goals to be let in and hopefully Bernier has gotten this years out fo the way early. The [Avalanche](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/colorado-avalanche?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) aren't having the greatest of season so let's see if the Leafs can make Patrick Roy's head explode.' **Colorado Avalanche @ [Toronto Maple Leafs](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/toronto-maple-leafs?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)** **7:30PM - Air Canada Centre** **TV: TSN4, GCL, TVA Sports, ALT2** **Radio: TSN1050** **SBN:** [Mile High Hockey](http://www.milehighhockey.com/2015/11/17/9748256/game-18-preview-avs-maple-leafs?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) The Avalanche come to town, struggling to stay above Calgary and Edmonton in the standings and too far out of a wild card playoff spot to bother. The dream team of Roy/Sakic doesn't seem to be living up to its hype at the moment, despite being saviours to the franchise. Whats the matter with the Avs? on paper they are a much better team, but this should be a close game. The Leafs should be as bad as they are in the standings, so no one is accusing them of under performing. **Leafs last game:** A 4-2 loss to the Rangers on Sunday night and it gave us this: Sigh. **Colorado's last game:** They destroyed the [Canadiens](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/montreal-canadiens?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) on Saturday night 6-1\. SIX TO ONE. High 5 Colorado (which was the goal differential in the game).
