Broncos tackle Ryan Harris was right in his element Thursday wearing a custom-made Colorado Avalanche jersey at Coors Field, which had its field transformed into a hockey rink for the NHL’s weekend Stadium Series between the Avalanche and Red Wings.
As he put it, “everyone plays hockey when you grow up in Minnesota.” He admitted he grew up a Minnesota Wild fan and felt a bit conflicted wearing the Avalanche jersey.
The football season went a little longer for Harris this year. With a championship as a result, he’s not complaining. It is that time of year again though.
