There was an excitement in the air on Wednesday night at the Colorado Avalanche game at the Pepsi Center. Everyone wanted to see how prospect Martin Kaut handled his first NHL game. Colorado Eagles fans turned out to support ‘their’ player. Ryan Clarke said there is a “sense of ownership” from them.
Pretty sure Kaut was a little nervous coming out on the ice for his ‘Rookie Skate.’ It is the first time this fan has experience such a skate. I was sitting waiting for the Avalanche to come out on the ice for warmup, looked up and noticed one lone skater on the ice doing a couple of laps.
