All the way back in Round 1, I was talking with a fellow media member and they mentioned how much they love dramatic Game 4s. It’s almost always a team looking to go up 3-1, playing a team desperately trying to even the series. That was exactly what we had tonight. The Colorado Avalanche had successfully defended home ice in…...

The transfer window is about to open, and the Rapids might be looking to make some moves. Mitchel Carroll and Yahir Vazquez are joined by DNVR Rapids OG Andre Simone. The fellas go through how the acquisitions from the last window are going and what possible moves the Rapids might make during this window. All that and much more on…

Hockey is a game of inches, and I thought Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final exemplified that.  The series shifted to the home of the Tampa Bay Lightning, with the Colorado Avalanche looking to take a stranglehold on the series after winning the first two games of the Final.  It was an eventful start to the game, and the…...

The Colorado Rapids draw on the road against NYFC. Both teams were coming off a long international break, and the rust was noticeable. Michael Barrios finally got his first goal of the season in the second half of the game. The goal put the Rapids up 1-0, but the lead didn’t last long Talles Magno scores a beauty to tie…

The Colorado Rapids are finally back in action this weekend after having a long international break. They face the defending MLS Cup Champions NYFC, whose coach just left for Europe to take charge of Standard Liege. What do the Colorado Rapids have to do to get a victory in New York? The MLS also announced a mega TV deal with…

The first one is done, and what a game it was.  The Colorado Avalanche and the Tampa Bay Lightning opened the Stanley Cup Final tonight and Game 1 lived up to the hype. This has been billed as one of the best Cup Final matchups the NHL has seen in a long, long time. Tonight was a fantastic game from…...

Here we go, the Stanley Cup Final. Down to the last two teams remaining, and we have what is, in my opinion, the best Final matchup you could’ve hoped for at the start of the season. A team looking to win their third Championship in a row, and a team who has been knocking on the door of greatness trying…...

One more round to help you top off your summer travel fund. This is the Stanley Cup Finals so there are more props to bet than in previous rounds. Still nowhere near the level of props for the Superbowl but enough to remind me of the Cheesecake Factory Menu as I started to work my way through it. One interesting…...

The Colorado Rapids are still in their international break, but we are not. Colorado Rapids 2 tied against St. Louis City 2 while having a lot of starters in the lineup. Does this game mean anything for the Rapids? The Colorado Avalanche are also in the Stanley Cup final, but is there anything the Colorado Rapids can learn from the…

The Colorado Avalanche are going to the Stanley Cup Final.  When I first started covering the team during the 2016-2017 season, I never ever would have thought I’d be typing those words just five years later.  This group… the resilience they’ve shown all playoffs, the adversity they’ve had to overcome all season, and their will to win has gotten to…...

Alright, before we get started on the game itself, I’ve gotta give some love to the folks here at Rogers Place. This building is amazing. State of the art top to bottom, and absolutely beautiful in every sense of the word. Literally everything you’d want in a hockey rink, I couldn’t be more impressed. Really the whole city of Edmonton,…...

The Colorado Rapids are out of a playoff spot, heading into the international break. The Rapids are coming off a bad loss against Nashville SC that saw the home unbeaten streak end. Today Yahir Vazquez and Mitchell Carroll are joined by DNVR graphic designer Duane Brown. The fellas go through the best kits and kit sponsors for the Colorado Rapids.…

What a wild first two rounds of the NHL Playoffs. So far, we’ve had half the series (6) go to a Game 7, the President’s Trophy winner lose 4 straight games to be eliminated for the 4th straight year, Andrei Vasilevskiy continues to be unbeatable in elimination games, and that doesn’t even touch on the storylines coming out of the…...

We are officially into Round 3 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, and it has been such a fun postseason so far. For the Conference Finals, we’ve got two early-season favorites and two teams that have proved all the doubters wrong (including myself). Two great matchups featuring four extremely talented teams. 1. Tampa Bay Lightning (Round 2 Series Win: 4-0) 1st…...

Whew. That game was… well it was something.  Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals kicked off Tuesday night in Denver and it was one to remember. The Colorado Avalanche held on to claim a 8-6 win over the Edmonton Oilers in a fast-paced, wide-open thriller of a hockey game.  There’s so much to get into in this one that…...

The Colorado Rapids are no longer unbeaten at home after Nashville SC scored three goals in 9 minutes. Nashville SC dominated play the first 30 minutes of the match, and Rapids could not respond fast enough. Before you knew it, Hany Muhktar had a brace, and CJ Sapong had a goal. In The second half, the Rapids came out with…

At morning skate today, every member of the media that I talked to said roughly the same thing, “I can’t believe we’re back here.” Halfway through Game 5, everybody was making plans for what they would do with their days off in between series, and obviously you know what happened next. So there we were, sitting inside the Enterprise Center…...

The Colorado Rapids are taking on Nashville SC at Dicks’ Sporting Goods Park in a colossal midseason matchup. This is the last match for the Rapids before the international break and the burgundy boys are looking to sneak into a playoff spot. Nashville SC is sitting in 6th place right now a point ahead of the Rapids, but with a…

The only positive way I can even think to spin this one for the Colorado Avalanche is that everyone knew this series would be a tough battle, everyone knew the Avalanche were going to have to fight through some adversity to get to where they want to go, and now they have a chance to go out and prove that…...
