[NHL] Colorado Avalanche win against to 'Florida Panthers'

 

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 12, 2021 | BALL ARENA, COLORADO AVALANCHE 3, FLORIDA PANTHERS 2





<TEAM NOTES>

 

The Avalanche improved to 5-0-1 in its last six games, 12-2-1 in its last 15 and 14-3-2 in its last 18 after starting

the season 2-4-0.

 

The Avs have won seven straight home contests, the ninth time in franchise history the club has recorded such

a streak on home ice. Colorado did it twice last season, going 9-0-0 from March 29 to May 13, 2021 and 7-0-0

from March 10-25, 2021.

 

Colorado and Florida wrapped up their two-game season series. The Avs finished 1-1-0 against the Panthers

with each team winning at home.

 

The Avalanche is 11-0-2 when scoring first this season. The New York Rangers and Edmonton Oilers are the only

other teams in the league without a regulation loss when scoring the game’s first goal in 2021-22.

 

 

<INDIVIDUAL NOTES>

 

Andre Burakovsky recorded his first career hat trick and the Avalanche’s second hat trick of the season (also:

Mikko Rantanen, Nov. 27 vs. Nashville). It was also Burakovsky’s second straight multi-goal game, the first time

in his career he as produced more than one goal in consecutive contests. He has scored five goals in his last two

games and now has 12 this season, tied with Rantanen and Cale Makar for the team lead.

 

Nathan MacKinnon has registered a point in every game he has played since returning from injury on Dec. 1,

extending his point streak to seven games. He has collected 12 points (3g/9a) over that stretch.

 

Mikko Rantanen recorded his 200th career assist with the helper on Andre Burakovsky’s second-period marker.

Rantanen is the fourth player from the 2015 NHL Draft class to hit 200 assists. Connor McDavid (408), Mitchell

Marner (270) and Jack Eichel (216) are the others. Rantanen finished with three points (3a) and now has 27

points (12g/15a) this season, tied with Gabriel Landeskog for second on the team.

 

Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar picked up his 200th win behind the Colorado bench, becoming the first

coach in Avalanche history and second in franchise history to reach that milestone (Michel Bergeron, 265).

 

 

<QUOTES>

 

Colorado LW Andre Burakovsky


On His First Career Hat Trick: “Obviously it felt great, I mean, getting my first one. I’ve been having a couple two-

goal games, but never really came through with the hat trick so it was nice to finally get one. I’m just happy to be producing for the team and help the team win games. Today was a lucky day for me.”

 

On Colorado RW Mikko Rantanen: “Mikko’s one of the best players in the league. I’m not surprised he’s making

plays. He’s doing it every game and every year, so you just want to be open and you’ll get the puck.”

 

Colorado D Erik Johnson

 

On His Goal-Saving Play: “When you have situations like that I think in the final minute, it’s all desperation right?

Those are the type of games that you need to win come playoff time and it’s fun. I mean, those are the competitive

moments you live for as a professional athlete, so those are just the fun situations at the end of the game trying to protect a lead at home. I just tried to be in the right spot. Thankfully, I was able to stop it from crossing the line.”

 

On The Hit Against Colorado D Jacob MacDonald: “That one felt like a whole different atmosphere when you’re like that, knocked out cold, so it’s just a tough thing to see. But I did like how we responded. We were really physical. Kubey (Colorado RW Nicolas Aube-Kubel) stepped up and dropped the gloves, guys were laying the body after that. It’s tough to continue on after something like that happens but we stuck together and hung in there and that’s the type of camaraderie and teammates that we have and that’s what we needed and we came together and found a way to win for Jake.”

 

Colorado G Darcy Kuemper

 

On Tonight’s Game: “We can’t score seven goals every game. These close competitive games, they are a little bit more fun, especially from my end to play in. That was a really good game of hockey tonight. You could see the urgency on both sides, both teams, and it was just a lot of fun to play in.”

 

On Colorado D Erik Johnson’s Goal-Saving Play: “I saw the replay. I actually thought that the puck was under me and then I saw the replay that it was his stick, so save of the game for sure.”

 

Florida C Joe Thornton

 

On Playing Colorado: “It’s a hard place to play, with the altitude. They got a good team, but I think we poured it on in the third period and it could’ve been a different result. Two good teams going at it.”

 

On The Atmosphere: “The fans were into it. The teams were both into it, especially in that third period, and the fans really got into it. It was a good atmosphere.”

 

Florida C Sam Bennett 

On Tonight’s Game: “We’ve showed all year that we don’t quit. We push right until the end. It was a good job by us to tie it up and we came close in the end, but we couldn’t capitalize.”

 

On Takeaways From The Game: “The main thing is our fight and our push back. We never quit, we were sticking up for each other in the battles and in the fight the whole game. That’s all you can ask for from your teammates and from the guy sitting next to you, that’s great to see. That’s a positive for sure.”

[인터뷰] 덴버 오로라 본스 치킨, '한국 임원에서, 미국 성공 신화'까지

 - 한국 기업 임원 생활 마다하고, 미국에서 이룬 '치킨' 성공 신화 - 오로라 소재, 본스 치킨의 사장이자, 본스 치킨  콜로라도 지사장인 오현식 사장을 만나봤다. 오현식 사장은, 지난해 12월 3일, 오로라에 소재한 쇼핑몰에, 한국 치킨 브랜드 '본스 치킨'의 문을 열었다. 그리고 3개월 뒤인 올해 3월, 코로나19 바이러스로 인해, 매장 내 취식이 금지되면서, 배달과 테이크 아웃만 가능하게 됐다. 모든 개인 사업자들이 그랬듯, 코로나로 인해 매출에 악영향이 끼쳤다. 그러나 오 사장은 '맛이 좋으면, 손님이 찾게 돼 있다'는 신념으로, 정확한 레시피를 지키면서 맛에 집중했다. 그러자 신기하게도 매출이 서서히 올랐다. 오 사장은 "문을 연 지 3개월 만에 맞은 위기였지만, 기본에 충실했습니다. 본스 치킨에 대한 믿음이 있었기 때문에 가능한 일이었습니다."라며 말문을 열었다. 그러면서 그는, "대마 그룹에 속한 본스 치킨의 이사로 있으면서, 브랜드에 대한 믿음이 있었기에 가능하지 않았나 생각합니다"라며 말을 이었다. 운도 따랐다. 덴버 소재 프로 미식 축구 팀 선수인, 디마커스 워커가, 여자친구와 함께 본스 치킨을 방문했고, 그 맛에 매료돼 매주 금요일 800개의 치킨 윙을 구매하고 있다. 뿐만 아니라, 'Eater Denver'라는 미국 언론 매체에 소개되면서, 한국인 보다는 현지인들에게 입소문을 타기 시작했다. 오 사장의 말에 따르면, 본스 치킨은 캘리포니아에만 20여개의 매장을 가지고 있다고 한다. 더불어 그는 자신의 포부를 밝혔다. "저는 현재 콜로라도 지사장 직도 겸하고 있습니다. 캘리포니아에서 처럼, 콜로라도에서도 본스 치킨을 알려서 체인점을 만드는 것이 두 번째 목표입니다." 레시피를 지키면서, 기본에 충실한 오 사장의 신념이, 그의 꿈을 이뤄줄 것이라 믿어본다. K-News Denver director@knewsdenver.com

재미 대한체육회 ‘콜로라도 지회, 종목별 참가 가능할 수도...?’

지난 달 13일, 콜로라도 체육회(회장 이한원)가 출범한 가운데, 이미 콜로라도 체육회(회장 조기선)가 존재하고 있었던 것으로 밝혀져 논란이 일고 있다. 이에 대해, 재미 대한체육회 송민호 사무처장은, “두 단체가 원만히 타협점을 찾아, 스포츠를 통해 동포들의 통합을 이루고자하는 재미 대한체육회의 취지를 잘 살렸으면 한다”고 입장을 전했다. 송 사무처장은 또, “분쟁이 계속 될 경우, 지회를 통하지 않고도 종목별로 체전에 참가가 가능”하다고 말해,  이번 분쟁이 콜로라도 지역 스포츠 선수들의 전국체전 참가 등에는 큰 문제가 되지 않을 것임을 시사했다.

[Undercover 덴버] 서울 만두, 그리운 한국의 맛

날씨가 더워지기 시작하면서, 처음 비가 내리기 시작한 날이었다. Havana 길을 운전하며 지나가다가, 문득 비오는 날 먹던 왕만두 생각이 났다. 한국에서, 집으로 가는 길에 하차하던 버스 정류장 바로 앞에, 항상 김이 무럭무럭 나는 만두 집이 있었다. 버스를 기다리거나, 집으로 오거나 하는 길이면, 무조건 마주치는 풍경이었다. 그러다가 문득 낯선 간판과 마주했다. -서울 만두- 낯익은 한글과 함께, 과거의 기억이 추억을 불러왔다. 나도 모르게 핸들을 돌려 주차를 했다. 주문을 하고, 왕만두를 받아 들고, 집으로 돌아와 식탁 앞에 앉았다. 익숙한 간장 소스에, 하얀 만두 피를 찍어 입으로 가져갔다. 과거의 맛이 입 속으로 들어와 머릿 속으로 들어왔다. 그리고 마음이 흐뭇했다. <Translation by Google> As the weather began to warm, it was the first day that it started to rain. As I was driving down the Havana road, I suddenly thought about the dumplings I had on a rainy day. In Korea, in front of the bus stop that was getting off on the way home, there was always a dumpling house where steaming was going on. If you were waiting for a bus or coming home, it was a scene you would encounter. Then I suddenly encountered a strange sign. -Seoul Mandoo- Along with the familiar Hangeul, memories from the past brought memories. Tur
