Five Avalanche Forwards Draw Selke Votes

Colorado did not just get one defensive forward into the conversation - it got five. Colorado Hockey Now reports that five Avalanche forwards collected votes for the Selke Trophy, which says plenty about how voters viewed the team’s two-way structure. That kind of recognition usually points to more than one player doing the dirty work the right way. It also hints that the Avalanche have built something opponents notice even when the puck is not in the net.
