Coors Field Hosting Sled Hockey Game Sunday

DENVER -- The 2016 Coors Light NHL Stadium Series game Saturday between the Colorado Avalanche and Detroit Red Wings was the marquee event of a big hockey weekend in the Mile High City, but it won't be the last game.

On Sunday, the NHL and Colorado Avalanche will host a sled hockey exhibition game between the Warrior Avs -- composed of military veterans -- and the 2015 National Champion Colorado Avalanche sled hockey team on the Coors Field rink.

"Sled hockey is for people with physical disabilities," said Corey Fairbanks, Executive Director, Colorado Adaptive Sports and President of Colorado Avalanche Sled Hockey.
