[Alienblood]

Probably just this

was thinking of going but didn't work out

 

[Frenchy]

What is Grateful Dead and why is it on the same level as these other ones lol

WTF is there a Grateful Dead night? Is there someone in management that just can't live without it? So bizarre to me

Well , since weed is legal in Colorado ....

All ya'll hating on the Grateful Dead night and here I am thinking I will make a trip home just to go to that game haha

Because he's loaned to Torpedo. Plenty of European prospects sign their NHL deals, but still proceed to spend the year in Europe.

The point of signing the contract now, is obviously to make him eligible to play in the spring. Cut off date is in December I think?

Alright, thanks!

Is anyone else unfairly disappointed that Ivan Ivan doesn’t have a number like 44 or 77?

11?

You must’ve been born yesterday if you don’t understand that every member of the Avs organization was given a scripted response for questions about Nuke.

Not one word from any of them reflects their own thoughts and beliefs.

It seemed like Cale was really struggling to find the right thing to say, and teetering on not revealing what happened.

They're just pissed Nuke got first pick of the hookers that night.

Avs released their group and theme night game dates.

11 seems low. Did they cut some or am I crazy? Either way, 11 is still too many.

They had "The Bachelor's Night" in the past as well.

 

[UncleRisto]

Their just pissed Nuke got first pick of the hookers that night.

And then he goes and does this shit.

 

[JoeSakic13]

11?

Is there ever any reports out of training camp that a player looks bad? Or is every player in the best shape of their life and taken a step forward in their development?

Who are your favorite camp success stories that never amounted to anything? I remember that Joakim Lindstrom looked great with Staz and Jones and then obviously fizzled

I liked the way his eyes darted down when the question started. Like he's so pure the thought of lying was causing him physical pain. @The Mars Volchenkov get working him, he'll spill before the end of the week.

I probably missed it, but it wasn't until the training camp line-up was tweeted out that I realized the Avalanche had signed Tanner Kero.

Another freakin' Stars player!

 

[LOFIN]

Family reason... As in your wife wasn't too happy about you partying with someone?

Whatever, let's move on.

 

[Avs_19]

Sounds good to me!

So he’s saying that it was a joint decision between himself and the team for him to leave and that it was for family reasons.

Not much to be gleaned from there. Kinda weird that he could’ve played second round, but bailed out on the 1st round.

Time to have a monster year and make it up to the team, and be done with the incidents.

On a seperate note, Val’s English has come a long way.

Pretty sure he's known enough for a long time, but puts up a front if asked to speak to the media.

 

[UncleRisto]

"Yeah, but the one thing I did want to ask is, the woman there, she did say they took her passport."
"Yeah, I don't wanna talk about it."

Oh, alright.

 

[Avs9296]

See guys, I knew you all were overreacting! It was just family issues that Nuke had to attend to. Good guy Val always there for the fam.

 

[NorthernAvsFan]

Interesting quote from JB… He says, when it comes to role players and everything is equal, he always prefers bigger guys.

Added that they were really missing it last season and feels it’s improved this year.
