Avalanche Stadium Series gimmick is skating on thin ice

Like many of you, I was at the very first World Series game held at Coors Field. It was cold and the Rockies stumbled to a 10-5 loss before the team would eventually stagger face first onto the asphalt of what was an otherwise miraculous playoff run. But despite the outcome of that game, I have a good memory of being there. And if there isn’t another World Series game in Denver ever again, I can at least claim I was there that one magical night that baseball’s crowning event came to Coors Field.

Another memorable event is coming to Coors Field this weekend as the NHL Stadium Series rolls into town for the very first time.
