The Colorado Avalanche are my team. I have always been a geographically displaced fan, spending the majority of my life in New Jersey. Despite that, I have watched almost every game that team has played in the last decade or so. I have also seen the Avs play in eleven different buildings across the NHL, including two different home arenas for both the Devils and the Islanders.
In short, I am a die-hard fan.
In spite of my location, I began cheering for the Avs when they first moved to Denver, when I was nine. It was a perfect time for me to find a team to follow.
