“Our Breakouts Were Terrible,” Colorado Coach Jared Bednar Is Unhappy With His Team And Still Unsure About Gabriel Landeskog’s Return
First things first, what’s a breakout? Breakouts are plays where a team has control over the puck and tries to move it from its defensive zone to the offensive zone in order to score a goal. That’s what the Colorado Avalanche team lacked. “It’s not skating. Bad decisions. Our breakouts were terrible.” shared Colorado Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar with NHL.com after Avalanche lost to the Vancouver Canucks in a disappointing score of 1-4!
After the Winnipeg Jets(54-21-4) and Dallas Stars(50-23-6), the third position in the Central Division is gladly occupied by the Colorado Avalanche(48-28-4). But their game against the fifth in the Pacific Division, the Vancouver Canucks, surprised their head coach Jared Bednar to the point of being loathsome. Jared Bednar further elaborated, “Just tough time getting in and out of the zone tonight, so it kind of messes up your whole game.”
