The Colorado Avalanche are looking to bounce back after a disappointing loss to the Washington Capitals, where they struggled offensively and failed to generate effective scoring chances. Coach Jared Bednar criticized the team's performance, noting a lack of energy and difficulties in finding shooting lanes against the Capitals' defensive pressure. With the team now closer to full health, including the return of key players, the Avalanche aim to correct their mistakes and elevate their game against a strong opponent. Bednar emphasized the need for the team to adapt and improve their offensive strategy to compete effectively.
