Deen's Daily: Erik Johnson and NHL Updates

Erik Johnson's new role is a perfect fit, and the Colorado Avalanche have a well-deserved break after a busy opening week.

The Avalanche had a packed schedule, with two road trips to L.A. and Buffalo, and two home games in between. The Sabres game was particularly challenging, with a quick turnaround after a shootout loss on Saturday.

Now, the team has over 72 hours between games, allowing them ample time to work on areas for improvement after a successful 3-0-1 start.

Additionally, the NHL has seen two significant goalie injuries, and the New York Rangers have set a new home record they would rather forget.
