Avalanche vs Sharks - Game Preview

Found October 30, 2009 on Colorado Avalanche Blog:
PLAYERS: Philippe Dupuis,  Brian Willsie,  Peter Budaj,  Craig Anderson
TEAMS: Colorado Avalanche

I was off the blogging grid for about a week and it looks like the world kept turning. Who knew!In the time I've been gone, the Avalanche have continued winning, the bodies on the injured list have continued to pile up and the media (mainstream and otherwise) are looking for the Avs to cool off.I'll take 2 out of 3 of those any day of the week. The injuries however have got to stop. With the latest news being that T.J. Galiardi is out for 4-6 weeks, the franchise's organizational depth will be tested. Philippe Dupuis has been called up and joins Chris Durno and Brian Willsie from the Monsters roster and press box hound T.J. Hensick finds himself drawing in to the lineup again. Thankfully John-Michael Liles makes his return tonight which should help the powerplay pick up steam.Though Peter Budaj has recovered from his bout with H1N1, Craig Anderson will make his 14th straight start tonight. I guess coach Sacco felt that with organizational depth being tested, it was best ...

Anderson Set to Make 15th Straight Start

Via Colorado Avalanche Blog  |  October 31, 2009
Wow. Craig Anderson will make his 15th straight start tomorrow against the Vancouver Canucks.I can only presume that the coaching staff believe the hype behind the wheels coming off for this team and have decided to ride Neo while he is hot. Once our youngsters hit the wall and the losses start piling up, Peter Budaj should see some playing time.

Via Denver Post  |  November 01, 2009
The only news goal-tender Peter Budaj has made so far this season is from having the H1N1 virus. It's a fair statement, therefore, that he's had better months than the just-completed October.

Anderson to start against Sharks

Via All Things Avs  |  October 29, 2009
(Denver Post file photo) So much for my reportorial hunches on the Avs goalie situation for Friday night. Craig Anderson will get consecutive start No. 14, against the San Jose Sharks. Peter Budaj is with the team and feeling fine again, but he’ll be on the pine. Tyler Weiman was sent back to Lake Erie. I would assume [...]
