Colorado Sports Scene

Colorado Avalanche: They're on a five game winning streak, and goalie Peter Budaj was named one of the NHL's three stars of the week. Pretty good start for the season, especially for a team that was swept in the second round of the playoffs last year.

Denver Broncos: The boys were on the "bye" week this past weekend, and with their sorry performance the week before, I hope they really got their rears in gear for the Broncos vs. Dolphins game this weekend at Invesco Field at Mile High.

The Colorado State University Rams will be taking on the Brigham-Young University Cougars, and the Colorado University Buffalo play the Texas A&M Aggies. Both are big games, with important outcomes. I can't wait to see how these play out, although I might have to put the CSU game on TiVo, because I really want to go out and actually watch the CU game.

Unfortunately, the Denver University Pioneers hockey team lost to the Ohio State Buckeyes this past weekend, pushing them out of possibly taking over the number one spot in the conference when they play the currently number one ranked Colorado College Tigers in a very highly anticipated - and rivalry intense - series Halloween weekend. I have a feeling that it's going to be a very interesting year in Colorado college hockey.

Sports Wrap

Hey all! Here's what's going on in the world of Denver sports...

The Colorado Avalanche are the highest scoring NHL team so far this season. They score so much that their nets are falling apart - literally! One of the goal nets finally ripped apart at the Av's practice on Wednesday. Glad to see that the boys are getting the puck in the net, we're going to need as many goals as we can get to make it to the playoffs this year.

Speaking of hockey, the Denver Broncos roster seems to be getting bogged down by an injury more commonly found in the NHL: groin injuries. Tony Scheffler, Selvin Young, Ebenezer Ekuban, Brandon Marshall and Champ Bailey are all suffering from groin injuries this week. Tough luck, guys. Must be the gatorade.

The Denver Nuggets roster is shrinking as they get closer to the home opener. The NBA team cut newbies and veterans alike, removing Nick Fazekas, Ruben Patterson, Smush Parker, Mateen Cleaves and James Mays from their Nuggets roster spots, reducing their team to fourteen players.
