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. So to absolutely, no one’s surprise Sakic did it again today. Albeit this time, much more subtly. TheContinue reading “Joe Sakic Just Cooked Up A Sneaky Nice Trade”

The Snow Report: The Avs Are Back Edition (!!!)
The nightmare is over, and hockey has FINALLY returned to our televisions. It’s hard for me to accurately explain just how much joy it has brought me to be able to watch hockey non-stop for the last week. I imagine its similar to the feeling of falling in love again after a rough breakup, IContinue reading “The Snow Report: The Avs Are Back Edition (!!!)”
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
I recently started listening to a podcast hosted by two New York City comics. It’s very funny, but the biggest thing I’ve taken away from it is this saying, “Es lo qué es”; it is what it is. 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”
The Snow Report: Pavel Francouz Appreciation 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. Over the last two weeks or so I have fallen madly in love with Avs goaltender Pavel Francouz. In honor of myContinue reading “The Snow Report: Pavel Francouz Appreciation Edition”
The Avs Trade Deadline For Dummies
If we’re being honest, the title for this blog should actually read “The Avs Trade Deadline For Dummies, Written By A Dummy”, but I prefer to keep the self-deprecation to the small print. The reason I say this is because the statements and assumptions I’m going to be making in this blog are not basedContinue reading “The Avs Trade Deadline For Dummies”
The Snow Report: The Return To Sanity Edition And A Little Miracle On Ice Talk
The dumpster fire that was the Stadium Series game, while only a week ago, feels like a very distant nightmare after a blue-collar week of hockey from the Avs. A few of this week’s result don’t necessarily look sexy from afar, but they gave me assurance that this team is going to be fine. SomeContinue reading “The Snow Report: The Return To Sanity Edition And A Little Miracle On Ice Talk”
The Snow Report: I Might Be On The Verge Of A Mental Breakdown Edition
Well, here we are again, another confusing week of hockey behind us. To be honest I don’t know where to start. The week started with the fifth win in five games and ended in one of the most disappointing results of the season. While the record for the week wasn’t pretty, it wasn’t the mostContinue reading “The Snow Report: I Might Be On The Verge Of A Mental Breakdown Edition”
The Snow Report
What a god damn week of GREAT hockey! After an abysmal start to the road trip in Philly, the Avs flipped the switch to the tune of four straight wins to close out the trip. There were tons of positives to take away from those four wins, but this blog would never get finished ifContinue reading “The Snow Report”
