Today we will analyze and discuss the massive trades that occurred in the NHL this week with Oilers goalie swap with the Penguins and the Canucks sending Quinn Hughes somewhere no one expected. Minnesota. The Sharks had an epic week of comeback wins, including the best in franchise history, and the Avs took care of business once again including against the defending champs.

The Avalanche accumulated their second regulation loss to the Islanders in 6-3 beating. Nathan MacKinnon then scored the nastiest backhand of all time to clutch the Avs second OT victory. They dispatched the Flyers in good time but couldn't dispatch the worst team in the division in a shootout. The Sharks can now only finish games with a 4-1 score and do you know the muffin man?

We're diving into as many Avalanche stats as possible to see if they are as good as they're made out to be and see if Jesper Wallstedt is right that the Minnesota Wild are truly the better team. The Avs and Sharks faced off for the second time this year and our hosts were there to enjoy (or suffer through it). The Sharks had an up and down week that ended on a total downer. And what happens if three players get a penalty at once?

Just like the title says the Avalanche hit 9 straight wins. Along with that we're talking color on color jersey matchups. An ode to the Avalanche goaltending tandem. The Sharks are getting back on track with winning. And is Mikko Rantanen entering his villain arc?

Winning helps everyone feel good. Whether it's from the Avs or the Sharks. Both teams did a lot of it this week. Starting with the Avalanche crushing the Oilers 9-1 followed by finally obtaining their first OT win in Vancouver off the back of young upstart Gavin Brindley. Then it all culminated in a clash of the Western Conference Titans. But there's so much more to know when it comes to this week.

Marty Necas is here to stay for 8 more years which is one of many reasons to be jubilant. The Avalanche took down the titans of both the Western and Eastern Conferences but couldn't take down the Sharks. But that's the matchup we've been waiting for. We also learn all about hockey pucks. This is info you have to know. All this and more on this weeks episode of the Captain Avalanche Fancast.

In this Halloween Edition of the Captain Avalanche Fancast, the Sharks and Avalanche put on their costumes early. The Avalanche reverted to the Nordiques and had an identity crisis and the Sharks did the scariest thing of all and won a hockey game. This episode is spooktacular and you don't want to miss it.
