There is truly nothing like the emotional roller coaster of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Avalanche beat the Kraken 3-2 to tie the series at one heading to Seattle, completing the comeback after falling behind 2-0 in what was absolutely some of the worst hockey this team has ever played in the first period. Finally after four periods, the defending champions showed up to play and stopped handing it to the Kraken. What changed between the first and second period? With this series now shifting to Seattle all tied up, what can we expect from the Avs on the road where they have been better this season? Have they finally figured it out?
