Colorado Avalanche star Valeri Kamensky wasn’t known for his gritty play. But he once got the best of tough guy Ulf Samuelsson.
The Colorado Avalanche don’t have as storied a history as, say, the Toronto Maple Leafs. However, we’re legions better off than the Minnesota Wild. And you should always be proud of your history.
Retired left wing Valeri Kamensky will always be part of that history.
