Thread: THE official Colorado Avalanche/NHL thread!!!

Atleast we have the Avs to look forward to with this shit show football team.

Is there a station like 1043 that instead of non stop broncos talk they talk about the Avs all day?

I have been gravitating towards the Avs and Hockey for a number of years now and only want to focus all my attention on 1 sport/team and am ready to go Avs and Hockey over the Broncos and Football.

I generally focus on one team/sport and just keep up with what the others are doing but don't generally watch their games.

For me, hockey has always been a more enjoyable product and it's becoming more and more so all the time but I have followed football because of habit but I really like the Hockey more. Time to fully jump.

Glad Mikko signed. Hopefully his immigration stuff doesn't hold him up from being on the opening night roster. Even though his contract is staggered, the AAV wasn't as high as I thought especially with the contract Marner signed. I think Mikko's agent was just trying to gain leverage any way he can and holding Mikko out in an attempt to get Sakic to cave and overpay. I'm glad that didn't happen. Laine signed too and he and Mikko share an agent, so my suspicions are somewhat verified.

Anyone live out of area that has NHL TV?

I am considering subscribing just for the Avs as it is a little bit cheaper than the full package but it talks about black out days. I don't want to drop $115 and find that I can't watch a lot of games.

I also Redd It about another option...I have used this for games but I would like to listen to alot of games when I go to bed and figure I hope I can listen to games as well through that.

Might just do a combo of what I Redd It about and tune in premium for the radio.

*edit* Looks like because I AM out of market I shouldn't ever have to worry about blackouts?

Altitude has "Altitude Sports Radio", which I imagine they talk a lot about the Avs and Nuggets, but also Broncos, etc.

Avalanche trims roster to 26, risks losing A.J. Greer on waiver wire

I really hope Jayson Megna gets a spot on the 4th line. His preseason play was really good, and while I know he's not exactly some young prospect, I still think he should be rewarded for his hard work.

Really excited to see how the team looks this year with Cale.

I buy the NHL Center Ice package through NHL.com and watch the games on Roku's app. I pay $158 per year for it.

I have a firestick and gears tv. Firestick is $30. Gears tv is $10 monthly. It has nhl center ice, sunday ticket etc. Its from philly i think so no blackouts ever.

If that were the case Id rather pull up Bowen and get him some reps on the fly. I dont mind sending him down, but not over connauton.


So pumped for our team this year. The players seem to feel it too. Met a bunch of them last week at the rink. Theyre confident and young AF!
