The Avs were healthier than at any point this season in Round 1 with the return of Peter Forsberg and Milan Hejduk. They helped add some offensive punch to the lineup, but Colorado is a team that wins with defense and goaltending. In both those areas, they hold an advantage over the Sharks, but not by much. Moreover, San Jose?s work ethic, the stifling defense they can play and the potential for scoring that is there throughout the lineup, can?t be taken for granted.
