AIR FORCE ACADEMY, COLO. — It seemed only fitting that Denver’s first snowfall of the season happened on the day that NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, Avs GM Joe Sakic and LA Kings President Luc Robitaille were all in town to preview the 2020 Stadium Series outdoor game at Falcon Stadium in Colorado Springs.
Both Commissioner Bettman and Sakic were quick to comment on the idyllic conditions surrounding the press conference.
“It’s great to be here in Colorado Springs and we couldn’t be more excited to be playing a game in February in this stadium,” Commissioner Bettman said to open his media scrum session.
