Stanley Cup Playoff Push 2026: Spring Has Sprung
The 2025-26 NHL season has now entered the spring season, and that's the season were things get important. We are now down to the final 26 days of the NHL season, less than a month, less than four weeks. The races get intense around this time, and regarding certain areas, it's getting very, very tight! Logjams are pretty much everywhere. So many teams have chances for something. Flip-flops are still happening, a lot of them in the last week!

First to 100, First to Clinch: Avalanche Reach Playoffs for Ninth Straight Year
Spring has arrived, folks! March 20, the very first day of the spring season, and we finally have a clinching scenario. Only one team could punch a ticket to the beautiful annual madness known as the Stanley Cup Playoffs, and that team is the Colorado Avalanche. The Avs have had a few hiccups lately, but when the chips are down, we are at our best. Thanks to other outside factors that happened on the previous night, the Avs' scenario is a very simple one. One point and we're in. That's it.

Neck and Neck
Wednesday, March 18, 2026. That date was special to me for two reasons. One, it was my 41st birthday. Two, the Colorado Avalanche were playing, and not just against anyone. We hosted the Dallas Stars. The two teams who were ranked one-two in not only the Central Division, but the entire National Hockey League, faced off in Denver's Ball Arena. The division had been too close for comfort lately, thanks to the Stars going fifteen games without losing in regulation, though that did end on Monday against Utah.

Thunder Struck: Oklahoma City Set to Defend Title
As I mentioned before in past stories, this is the sixth season that the NBA actually allows 20 teams (two-thirds of the Association) to the postseason. Here's how it goes: the top six teams in each conference are automatically playoff bound. As for the teams ranked #7-#10, those teams will participate in the Play-In Tournament for the final two playoff spots. This is a remnant from the COVID-affected 2020 Playoffs, though the Play-In portion is modified.

Thank You, Utah Mammoth
I have been timely with the Colorado Avalanche recaps lately, but there are a few reasons why I'm a tad late with this one. For one, I was focused on the World Baseball Classic coming to a close. Also, the NCAA Tournament was kicking off. And, I was looking ahead to Wednesday, which is not only my birthday, but also our big game against the Dallas Stars. Which leads me to another reason for the lateness: I kinda want to forget this game actually happened.
