Miles Wood and Ross Colton play a certain style of hockey, and it was on display Sunday during the Avalanche’s first exhibition game since adding them this offseason.
Avalanche coach Jared Bednar said there were certain elements of the game that his team felt deficient in last season, particularly given the injuries to certain players.
Wood’s first shift included a scoring chance when he took the puck off the boards and went directly to the net. A few seconds later he flattened a Minnesota Wild player with a huge open-ice hit.Colton followed with his own big open-ice hit later in the game. He also spent time fending off various Wild players after the whistle, because he had done something to antagonize them seconds before.
“It’s in our identity, the way both of us play,” Colton said. “The first shift, Miles ran somebody over. I was trying to throw around a little bit as well, just trying to get a little spark. I think come game one, me and him are going to know what to bring. We’ll be ready.”
