The Colorado Avalanche suffer a 7-2 defeat in Columbus, snapping a road losing streak with a blowout loss to the Blue Jackets on Nov. 3, 2026. Former Avs Charlie Coyle and Val Nichushkin each score twice, while Colorado’s only goal comes from Nazem Kadri on the power play. Cale Makar and Nathan MacKinnon provide a brief spark, but defensive lapses and goaltending changes fail to stem the onslaught. Sam Malinski registers a point amid the chaos, and the Avalanche head home for a rematch with Nashville on Nov. 5.
The Colorado Avalanche’s 9-6-1 start fades as road defeats expose glaring flaws. A 7-2 loss to the low‑ranked Columbus Blue Jackets highlighted a pattern: the Avs are being beaten by teams in the bottom third of the league’s scoring ranks, including recent defeats to the Philadelphia Flyers, Winnipeg Jets and Nashville Predators. Goaltending woes persisted, with Scott Wedgewood and Mackenzie Blackwood combined for seven goals on 24 shots, while the top line and defensive pairing each posted a minus‑3 rating. Coach Jared Bednar faces pressure as the Avalanche slip to fourth in the Central Division behind Dallas, Minnesota and Utah. Meanwhile, Valeri Nichushkin celebrated a multi‑point night, netting his second goal of the season against his former club.
The Colorado Avalanche’s 9-6-1 start turns sour after a 7-2 road loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets, highlighting a worrying trend of being blown out by low‑scoring teams. Despite a solid record, the Avs have surrendered goals to opponents ranked near the bottom in offense—Philadelphia, Winnipeg, Chicago and Nashville—while their own power play stalls and top players like MacKinnon, Necas, Lehkonen, Makar and Toews finish with a minus‑3 rating. Goalie Scott Wedgewood allowed four goals on nine shots before being pulled, and backup Mackenzie Blackwood added three more. The defeat drops Colorado to fourth in the Central Division, raising urgent questions for coach Jared Bednar. Meanwhile, Valeri Nichushkin shines for Columbus, netting his second goal and first multi‑point game against his former club.
