The Avs were and are a great team...couple bounces they could have won the cup last season. They were only and 8th seed because of injuries and goal tending issues that they solves before the playoffs.
You say the Jets have been coming on lately...Flames are over .600 hockey since the coaching change and had their own injuries on the back end. Pick the Jets if you want stating "we are gonna get rolled" like its a fact is obviously pessimistic against a team that only qualified because the number of teams was expanded.
