The Avs are held scoreless by Marc-Andre Fleury for the second time in four games and looked, on the whole, a bit disconnected defensively. https://youtu.be/BHA_MEpRCNE

Pierre-Edouard Bellemare – B- The fourth line was okay, probably their most consistent line from the standpoint of keeping things away from their own net. Didn’t notice anything spectacular from him in any way, but it should be noted he still has yet to pick up a point this year. I didn’t expect the production from last year but would…...

The four-game series between the two favorites from the West Division finished much as it started – with an opportunistic Vegas team finding enough offense and then turning the keys over to highlight-machine Marc-Andre Fleury. The first game of the series was a 1-0 Vegas win in which the Avs played a sloppy, disjointed game where Fleury made no mistakes…...

BOULDER — And just like that, the Buffs have even more life. The Colorado Buffaloes announced Monday afternoon that they had scheduled a game against Arizona State to be played in Boulder on Thursday, March 4. The game was originally supposed to be played Feb. 4 but Arizona State was unable to play due to COVID protocols. The time of…

UPDATE (Monday night): The Pac-12 announced a bunch more games. Because of these new games, the scenarios below have changed. They’ll still give you a rough idea of what’s going on, but don’t forget to reference the new games when you take a look below. A new story with updated scenarios is on the way (maybe after a few more games…...

There were high expectations for the rookie coming out of Penn State, not only as a receiver, but as a playmaker. Did Hamler and his electricity live up to those high expectations his rookie season?

The Denver Nuggets closed their road trip with a loss in Atlanta Sunday night. The Hawks, also shorthanded, waltzed right past Denver’s first line of defense for four quarters. With no JaMychal Green and Paul Millsap, the Nuggets relied on rookie Zeke Nnaji and the vertically challenged Nikola Jokić to protect the rim — a daunting task considering Trae Young…...

Pierre-Edouard Bellemare – A The fourth line played a massive role in this one. Bellemare was smart with his decisions, particularly when it came to getting the puck out, and shot the puck every chance he got, as both he and Calvert led the Avs with four even strength shots on goal. Great job towards the end of the game…...

Inside a San Francisco hotel on the eve of the Nuggets' first preseason game, Nikola Jokic set the tone for Denver's upcoming season.

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays Nathan MacKinnon from the swift scoring of his points. The Avs battle the element of good weather and come away victorious, eventually. https://youtu.be/TuE7vt1jq5g

I guess technically I’ve had all day to start writing this piece because the puck dropped right about 12 and a half hours ago to begin Colorado’s third outdoor game experience, this time a Lake Tahoe “home” game against the Vegas Golden Knights. Sam Girard scored just minutes into the contest and the television broadcast worked overtime to prevent gratuitous…...

The Cleveland Cavaliers was once the poster organization for the Denver Nuggets’ tendency to play down to their opponents. The Sacramento Kings wear that crown now, and the Cavs look like the Nuggets preferred way to tune-up. Denver propelled themselves back into the right direction Friday behind a monster night from The Big Three, capped off by a historic performance…...

It’s not often that a team can insert five healthy players into the lineup from one game to the next, but the Avs may be doing just that on Saturday against Vegas. After a short practice to test out the digs outdoors at Lake Tahoe ahead of the game on Saturday, Avs coach Jared Bednar announced that all of the…...

BOULDER — Colorado held Oregon to 60 points on Saturday but couldn’t overcome a sloppy offensive performance. “Our inability to pass and catch and come meet passes was pathetic by some veteran players,” head coach Tad Boyle said after the game. “It’s not like we’ve got a bunch of freshmen out there.” Passes flew wide of some targets and off…...

Michael Ojemudia's rookie season was anything but easygoing. But the third-round rookie was able to end the season on a high note and give the Broncos confidence in him moving forward.

“To live is to war with trolls” – Henrik Ibsen With that quote, you’d think Mr. Ibsen to be the latest social media sensation, instead of the Norwegian playwright who wrote Peer Gynt, Hedda Gabler, and many other classics before passing away 115 years ago. Safe to say, there are some things that time doesn’t seem to affect much. Apparently…

If it's about hedges to provide competition for Drew Lock, the Broncos have their choice of options. Andrew Mason's series examining these options begins with a former Super Bowl MVP whose elite play is tantalizing, but whose consistency is lacking.

BOULDER — The Cal Bears held Colorado at arm’s length all night on Saturday. They led for more than 37 minutes but never led by more than nine points. “I just feel like we just couldn’t really get over that hump tonight,” Colorado head coach Tad Boyle said. “Unfortunately it’s like that sometimes.” There were plenty of reasons for the…...

The Denver Nuggets led the Washington Wizards by 20 before the first quarter ended. By the time they took the locker room for halftime, they had trailed by six. Without that stretch, we might not spend any time on the game’s final minutes when a lack of execution cost Denver the game for good. Two late fouls by JaMychal Green…...
