The Avs are struggling with inconsistency, and Griffin is struggling with a cold while Christian carries the show. The Avs motivation questions surface against the Los Angeles Kings in a 5-2 loss, and the attention to detail just isn't there from players who we all know know better. However, the Avs survived a scare against from Connor Ingram and the Arizona Coyotes with a 3-2 overtime win, where they didn't allow a single shot in the third period. Can the Avs just flip the when the playoff stars. Also, is Bally Sports and other regional sports networks dying out a good thing for the sport, and hopefully lead to less blackouts?
