'Is it going to be a good story, or bad story?' Valeri Nichushkin asked.

Avs are going to play Nichushkin on Tuesday night. Why did his coach, teammates and franchise stick with him after multiple years of off-ice issues?

'We’re happy for Val'

My eyes were wet from start to finish. I thought of being little in a big world & watching my son's first tries at this mad game. ESPN's Open to the NHL season is beautiful. I didn't expect to cry today-this is stunning. There's nothing like this sport. We at ESPN love the sport as you do. ❤️ Enjoy.

I need to make a very PUBLIC announcement on behalf of younger GenXers and older Millennials.

If you see someone in their 40s or 50s who seems a little boring now, I need you to understand something...

We already got it in.

Like...GOT. IT. IN.

We are not sitting home on a Friday night because we never knew how to have fun.
We are sitting home on a Friday night because we have seen enough.

We went to parties in houses that should have been condemned and were almost certainly owned by the local drug dealer.

We saw police lights and RAN and not across a nice, flat field.
INTO THE WOODS.

Do you understand the athleticism required to hurdle uprooted tree roots in platform shoes while simultaneously trying to keep your low-rise jeans from sliding completely off your ass?

And somehow...we never spilled the Zima. We never spilled the Boone’s Farm.

That was TALENT.

We slept on floors in strange houses because the designated driver either never showed up or, in a shocking turn of events, was drunker than everybody else.

There was no Uber, Life360 or Find My Friends.
There was just somebody named Mike saying, “I know a shortcut.”

And we FOLLOWED MIKE.

We closed down bars and then decided the night was still young, so we drove to Atlantic City, where we somehow managed to get drunk, sober up, get drunk again, sober up again and then get drunk a THIRD TIME before breakfast.

And according to our parents? We were at Michelle’s house.

Eating pizza and watching movies.

Michelle’s mother unknowingly covered for approximately 17 people every weekend. If there even was a Michelle.

We drank things called Purple Passion, Mad Dog 20/20 and whatever somebody mixed inside a giant plastic garbage can. Nobody asked what was in it. You grabbed a red Solo cup and trusted the process.

We went to clubs until the lights came on. Do you know the psychological damage of seeing a nightclub with the LIGHTS ON? Nothing good happens after those lights come on.

We danced for four straight hours in shoes that permanently altered the structure of our feet.

We made entire plans without cell phones...no texts, dropped pins or group chats...just an extremely questionable sense of direction.

We rode in cars with 11 people when the vehicle legally seated five. Someone was always sitting on someone. Someone was always in the hatchback.
And there was always one friend yelling, “DUCK!” when we passed a cop.

So yes...now we like being home.
We like sweatpants.
We like cancelling plans.
We like saying, “That sounds fun!” with absolutely no intention of attending.
We like restaurants at 5:30 because we can get a good table.
We like being home by 8:17.

And if someone texts at 9:30 PM and says, “What are you doing?”
Sleeping...we are sleeping.

Because this is not boring my friends...this is retirement.

We already played, partied and danced on the bar.
We already ran from the cops through a wooded area dressed like a Spice Girl.

We have stories that cannot be posted because there are still people with careers, marriages and reputations to protect. And thank GOD there were no camera phones.

So kids, when you look at your Gen X and older Millennial parents sitting peacefully on the couch watching Dateline at 8 PM and think:
“God, you guys are boring.”

Sweetheart...oh sweetheart.
You are looking at retired legends.

Put some respect on our names. We're probably the reason Life360 was invented.

“I have missed her for 25 years…”

Nineteen-year-old Kathleen MacVicar moved to Ontario in 2001 to begin a life on her own, full of hope for the future. Just months later, her dreams and her life were taken from her.

@SeanA4417 @dstaples Fake news. She is still on the bench at the Ontario Superior Court in Windsor

[Ken LaCorte @KenLaCorte]

Why are cities liberal and rural areas conservative?

I thought I knew the answer, but discovered that it's a new phenomenon. The rural/urban divide occurred in my lifetime.

Here's what happened ...

It was at this moment Nate MacKinnon decided he’d put Hughes and Boldy through the boards if he saw them in playoffs

[AltitudeTV @AltitudeTV]

Round 2️⃣

[Angela GO AVS GO @cdnwinelover33]

@ProducerDrew_ According to @Steve_Dangle and the rest of the crew, the Avs are losers this round. Can’t wait to hear what they have to say when the Avs win in five 🤩

[b @biazzarro]

so wedgewood can’t win the vezina because he plays behind makar who can’t win the norris because he plays with mackinnon who can’t win the hart because he plays with makar and necas who are coached by bednar who can’t win the jack adams because he coaches makar and mackinnon?

[SoCalAvsFan @SoCalAvsFan]

Hey #AvsFam today is the 8th anniversary of #Game82 where the Avs had one chance to pull off the unbelievable and beat the blues to complete the worst to playoffs flip. Every year I post this @kylekeefetv opener because nothing has ever given me goosebumps like this. Please give it another watch! Since this moment the @Avalanche have yet to miss the playoffs and now hold then 2nd longest playoff streak in the NHL. Go figure. And it all happened because of Game 82.
