Over the last 4-5 years, Joe Sakic has become a bit of a wizard with trades. While some of those trades have paid off in bigger, and more impressive ways than others, they’ve all worked out well.

The Snow Report: The Avs Are Back, And Its Cup Or Bust
The Colorado Avalanche haven’t played a competitive hockey game since September 4th, 2020, when they lost in overtime of Game 7 to the Dallas Stars. The pain of that game is still very fresh in my mind, thankfully the guys who played in it probably aren’t mental midgets, and they’ve probably moved on. But asContinue reading “The Snow Report: The Avs Are Back, And Its Cup Or Bust”

Remembering The Fire And Ice Series
During the 2019 playoffs, the 8th seeded Colorado Avalanche took on the 1st seed Calgary Flames in the first round of the playoffs. Everyone picked the Flames, and everyone was wrong. So my brother, the yin to my hockey yang, took a little stroll down memory lane. We watched the condensed games from the seriesContinue reading “Remembering The Fire And Ice Series”
The Snow Report: The Voice Of The Fans Edition
Ryan Clark is a man I’ve mentioned quite a bit since I started writing this blog. There’s a reason for that he’s pretty fuckin smart. His articles on The Athletic are some of the best info on the Avs I’ve found. So when he released a fan survey recently, I was pretty intrigued. There wereContinue reading “The Snow Report: The Voice Of The Fans Edition”

The Snow Report: Hockey Is Dumb, And I Hate It Edition

Its something I’ve started to say when shit hits the fan in my life. I can’t lieContinue reading “The Snow Report: Hockey Is Dumb, And I Hate It Edition”

From time to time when I see older family members I get asked: “Why don’t you have a girlfriend?” and like most people, I never had an answer to that question… until now.
