Just like that, the Avalanche are back to .500 after a four game win streak and sweeping the three game road trip with Seattle and Utah in their first ever visit to Delta Center. It's not much of a coincidence that since starting Justus Annunen in goal, the Avs have looked significantly better, playing with more confidence and giving up significantly less goals. Is he the starter now? Of course nothing can stay good, as Ross Colton could be added to the injured list now, but Kovalenko and Ivan Ivan continue to impress. Cal Ritchie was sent back to the OHL a bit early, but that's not a bad thing. Finally, answering your mailbag questions?

The Avalanche have won not one, but two hockey games in a row with wins over the Anaheim Ducks and San Jose Sharks and officially on the board for the season. With the monkey off their back, can this turn into positive momentum as they wait for reinforcements to arrive?

Does Ross Colton stay on the wing after his hot start to the season to the top line? Finally, answering your mailbag questions at last!
