Game 1 Preview: Detroit Red Wings at Colorado Avalanche
** Huge thanks to Andi for the beautiful preview graphics! **
It begins.
The Colorado Avalanche kick off their 2011-2012 Stanley Cup run tonight in Denver. Along the way, the Avs will no doubt dominate every step of the way, but it is best not to get too cocky. It's important to approach this 82-0 season one game at a time.
The first victim to be trampled by the yeti will be the Detroit Red Wings presented by Amway. The Red Wings that take the ice tonight at the Pepsi Center will be familiar to most. Nicklas Lidstrom sponsored by Energizer continues to lead the team on the blueline, while Pavel Datsyuk and Abel to Yzerman's Henrik Zetterberg will once again be a potent offensive force. And yes, [name redacted] sponsored by Massengil is still drawing a paycheck to coast lazily around the ice.
Once the Bridgestone Tire puck drops onto the Flavor Ice ice on the Pepsi Center floor, we'll get our first real look at the new Monster.com Avalanche defense and our new Icy Hot goalie, Semyon Varlamov. Up front, expectations are high for Absolut Matt Duchene and Colgate Paul Stastny. Duchene is expected to center a line with Milan Hejduk presented by Aflac and Excederin PM, returning from a lost season. Stastny has been skating lately with Dr Shoals Jones and Chuck E Cheese Kobasew. Meanwhile, rookie Gabriel Landeskog presented by the Paramount Pictures movie Thor (own it on DVD today!) will make his Geico NHL debut tonight. And...scene.
Coming back into serious land, tonight is a big night for more than the game. Before the game, the Avalanche will retire the #21 jersey of the great Peter Forsberg. Foppa will be immortalized for his incredible skill and dynamic play, joining Ray Bourque, Patrick Roy and Joe Sakic in the rafters. The team will also honor 3 Avs that were lost this summer - Wade Belak, Ruslan Salei and Karlis Skrastins. The on ice ceremony begins at 5:45 MT (I believe it will be carried by Altitude for those who can't make it). For those who will be attending, there will be a MHH / Avalanche Guild / Burgundy Brigade meet-up at Brooklyn's before the game.
It's good to have hockey back. Go Avs!

I'm liking a lot of things these days, and I'm liking those preview graphics.
(Although I’m not a fan of the underlining.)
Go Avs!
The wings scored 5 on 2011 Vezina Trophy winner Craig Anderson, so clearly this is going to be a tough one.

Thanks for the compliment. The underline was just so more of the logo could come through. It matters more on some of the other ones for later in the year (and yes, all 30 teams are done already and ready to go).

I’m not looking forward to my two weeks in Qatar later this year. 9 hour difference, so 7 pm start here would be, what, 4 am? Joy. Guess I’m going to be very, very tired at work. Oh, and that’s right in the middle of the longest homestand of the season…possibly even Avs history. The hockey gods hate me.

There is a very good reason for the pigs laying in mud. They don’t have sweat glands. (So, you know, the term “sweating like a pig” when someone is drenched makes no sense.) So they have to lay in mud to cool off. They can’t help themselves.

Ok, I kinda like the logo that comes up on the mobile site with the letters seperate from the picture, although those letter need some sprucing up. I know I am the od man out, but didn’t really like the new logo a ton until I saw it with just the yeti. But, everyone else loves it, so I am sure it will grow on me.

Whoa…I’m getting too excited….
"Hey man, don't bogart that puck."
This reminds me of when Varly was at the Olympics. He and Nabokov were in goal during practice and then Bryzgalov came in late, dressed in his goalie gear. He started playing goalie in front of Varly who was still in goal and annoyed him. I bet Varly gave Bryzgalov’s back one of his death stares although they were probably an effective tandem.

But I’ll come home and start watching the game on my newly ordered game center. I’m just a little annoyed that I have to leave for the Caps game before my college football game ends (VT vs Miami).

Technology question for all the damn nerds in the community. My MacBook sound isn’t working. I plugged in some speakers to play sound yesterday, and it didn’t recognize that the speakers were removed, so I don’t have sound coming out of my computer. It does the same thing occasionally when I remove it from an LCD projector, and I just plug it back in and unplug it. I don’t have speakers at home to plug in, though.
I’ve restarted it and everything, but I can’t figure how to make it work. Anyone?
Whiskey tends to make me high, and sad songs make me cry. Pretty women break my heart almost every night. I run on beans and nicotine; I'm a real, live buckaroo. And my heart's not pure, my boots ain't clean, and I never tell the truth.
Restart it, should work if it doesn’t you’ll have to go in the finder and eject from there.

*I should mention the “restart” I mean is with PRAM
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
3. Turn on the computer.
4. Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
5. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
6. Release the keys.

Find “Audio Midi Output” with spotlight, you should be able to reconfigure your sound output using that program.

What? There are nerds here? I wish I had been told before I sent the $40 to DDC to renew my membership.
What else do I not know? Dress codes, boobs are no longer called cupcakes, the logo looks less effeminate, I don’t count. . . ..
