If you’re like me, you’re champing so hard at the bit for NHL hockey, you’ll take it anyway you can get it.
- Preseason game featuring a roster almost entirely comprised junior players, AHL contracts, and professional tryouts? You bet!
- Radio feed because Altitude Network still refuses to broadcast perfectly viable television? Bring it on!
- Sixty minutes of hockey against the loathsome Minnesota Wild? Eh...sure.
By all accounts (and by all I mean Mark Moser and Peter McNab’s), the game got off to a wonderfully fast start with a bunch of hungry young guys flying around the ice looking to prove themselves to new Avalanche coach, Jared Bednar.
