At the trade deadline the Colorado Avalanche announced they had acquired Derick Brassard from the Florida Panthers. He happened to already be in Denver, getting ready to play the Avalanche that night, so it was just a short walk for him to join his new team. Colin Wilson, who has a reputation for befriending everyone, was sent down to meet him.
This is a really interesting photo. I love the lens/perspective making the stick look bigger than it is.

It must be confusing to arrive in a city playing for one team, only to be traded and have to play against them that night.
