Strike 2: Can the Colorado Avalanche suddenly get physical? That’s not the word most often associated with one of the NHL’s most explosive and high flying offensive teams. But it is a term that most coaches – including the Avs Jared Bednar – in search of a Stanley Cup would like to be able to attach to their club heading into the playoffs. Offense sells tickets. Defense wins championships, remember? Heading into this postseason, the Avalanche defense has been shoddy, including goaltender Alexandar Georgiev. Much like his team, Georgiev has won a lot of games – his 38 W’s lead the league. But ..read more

This year’s NFL Draft is shaping up to be a QB bonanza, and if the Broncos don’t act, they’ll miss out. Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, and Jayden Daniels are expected to go 1-2-3. And J.J. McCarthy will likely go in the top-6 as well. With Denver selecting at No. 12 overall, that would leave them reaching for a guy like Bo Nix. Or, they could take the best fit available and take a QB in Round 3. But mock drafters are keeping things spicy, predicting the Broncos and Sean Payton will move up to take a QB. PFF predicts Broncos move up to No. 3 for a QB In Pro Football Focus’ latest mock draft, they ..read more

The Colorado Rockies went through a truly fascinating sequence of events during Spring Training, searching for the right person to assume the role of back-up outfielder at all three spots and a quality left-handed bat off the bench. They began by signing former first round pick Bradley Zimmer who has shown quality defense but never managed to be an above-average hitter in six seasons, mostly with Cleveland. Though Zimmer was having a decent spring, the Rockies clearly weren’t satisfied as they reached out to an old friend and brought back their own former 15th-round draft pick Sam Hilliard. Hi ..read more

Strike 1: The similarities are striking. And not in a good way. Just a year ago around this time, the defending Stanley Cup champion Colorado Avalanche had overcome a glut of injuries and clawed their way to the top of the NHL’s Central Division during the final days of the regular season. It wasn’t a smooth ride to that division title repeat, but it left the Avs in a nice position entering the postseason and gave them a decent shot at defending their title. We all know what happened next. A shocking first round playoff loss to the Seattle Kraken. Fast forward one year. The defending NBA cham ..read more
