I was kidding, kind of, but it is a problem trying to support people because eeeeeeeveryone in a political sphere has a skeleton in their closet. My trust of "the good ones" has totally eroded. There are people I like, but I don't trust any of them anymore :/

support no one

The Olympic night that changed TJ Oshie’s life is following him to the Super Bowl There are some moments in sports that transcend the boundaries of rink or field and cement themselves in pop culture. In 2014, one of those unfolded before our

I got to talk to TJ Oshie about the 2014 Olympics. He's the coolest and the shootout was the coolest, oh, he's also in a Super Bowl commercial

Avs-Red Wings Game 53 Studs & Duds - DNVR Sports The Colorado Avalanche put their last two games in the rearview mirror with a casual 5-0 win over the Detroit Red Wings. These were the Avs studs and duds.

As a lifelong hater of Detroit, @ajhaefele.bsky.social had a delightful time watching the Avs beat up their classic rival. Who stood out?

🐶Nathan MacKinnon, of course
🧱Mackenzie Blackwood
⚖️A well-balanced lineup

My life has gotten better (well, my mental health?) when I stopped worrying about what the perception of me might be if I embraced my inner petty bitch, so I embrace it now. I love some petty bullshit.

Yeah I have no feels about the city itself. No hate

It felt good. Now lets get a Nuke goal from the ass in the goalies face, Holmstrom style

It's hard to feel sports hate when the real world is full of so much actual hate, but then I see the winged wheel and its not so hard anymore. Fuck Detroit foeva

The gf and I are celebrating our 2nd anniversary tonight so Ill be MIA for this one. Probably for the best because I have the worst vibes about this game.

hell yeah! 1B soon or what

This is what letting RFK jr go wild on health looks like

Avalanche of the Week: Brock Nelson taps his way to a five-point week - DNVR Sports The Colorado Avalanche finished the week with a 2-1-1 record and Brock Nelson was the man with a five-point week, including a hat trick against Toronto.

I overlooked it yesterday because I published it as soon as the Avs announced the Sam Malinski extension but here's my "Avalanche of the Week" piece I wrote. It was fun, I'm hoping to write it every week through the regular season

The standings being so compressed is going to make a real mess of it too. Im worried too many teams will have a false sense of hope about their season that they will hang onto all players

Avalanche extend Sam Malinski for four more years - DNVR Sports The Colorado Avalanche extended Sam Malinski for four more years following the strong start to the season by Malinski. What does it mean moving forward?

Anecdotally, it sure seems like the Avs enjoy making our off days interesting with roster news.

Here's my thoughts on Sam Malinski's new contract:

thednvr.com/avalanche-ex...

No, I think they haven't brought him up because he sucks

Really really good response by the Avs. Defense is still a little iffy at times, but they're going super small back there right now so I'm not surprised teams are having more success around the crease

Hilarious start to a new relationship

This is by far the best I've ever seen him play. Even his best days in New York weren't this good (two-way play, I mean)

This feels like a weirdly important game for the Avs. They had a disappointing homestand overall with a particularly rocky end, so you'd love to see them get back into the good stuff

Ive been tearing through it. I am fascinated by where its going. Hes building the language with Rocky right now and im blown away by the concept of it

Avs-Flyers Game 49 Studs & Duds - DNVR Sports The Colorado Avalanche embarrassed themselves in a ridiculous 6-3 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers. These were the Avs studs and duds from the game.

Last night sucked so @ajhaefele.bsky.social kept it brief in Studs & Duds. Not a fun one but go read it ⬇️

I blasted through The Housemaid right before the movie came out and loved it so I am doing the same thing with Project Hail Mary and it's pretty fun.

Im reading it with the movie in mind and trying to build my own vision for how I would adapt the story. Lots of science, but The Martian killed it

Avs-Ducks Game 48 Studs & Duds - DNVR Sports The Colorado Avalanche dropped another shootout, this time a 2-1 decision to the Anaheim Ducks. These were the Avs studs and duds.

The Avs had an interesting night against Anaheim but finally got goalied. @ajhaefele.bsky.social has his breakdown of the events at Ball Arena last night

😡Ross Colton can't buy one
🧢Lukas Dostal was That Dude
🤮The Avs are so bad at shootouts
