The Colorado Avalanche are fast approaching the danger of starting the season without their star winger. However, it won’t matter much to in-market fans because we won’t be able to (legally) watch the games anyway.
The 2019-20 season is supposed to be a golden one for us. Not like the Golden Age, but more the golden promise of the Why Not Us era. Through a painful but intelligent rebuild, the team has finally secured a roster that many pundits opine could challenge for a Stanley Cup sooner rather than later.
A lynchpin of that roster, though, is winger Mikko Rantanen.
