What's Wrong With The Colorado Avalanche?

11/12/2014 at 3:40pm EST

from Adrian Dater of All Things Avs,

The biggest thought I remember having tonight while watching the Avs skate offensively was – especially the top two lines: “There’s no plan here. It’s all just freelance. It’s all just a guessing game where to go, what to do.”

The forwards all seem to be standing around looking at each other, wondering who should do what. The forwards seem like they are on an island, totally divorced from the defense. Nobody is working in conjunction with each other. Nobody seems to be communicating on the ice. Everybody seems like a stranger to each other.

Could a trade be coming to shake things up? I see there are rumors out there, but in talking with Joe Sakic tonight at the game, I did not get the impression that he’s burning up the phone lines trying to make a deal. And I certainly haven’t gotten that impression from Roy, who has a front-office title too.
