Around SBN: The Most Dangerous Division in Sports

The Evaluation is Over

WINNIPEG, CANADA - FEBRUARY 19: Semyon Varlamov #1 of the Colorado Avalanche makes a save during their NHL game against the Winnipeg Jets at MTS Centre on February 19, 2012 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. (Photo by Tom Szczerbowski/Getty Images)

I've been giving this a lot of thought and I'm finally willing to give my unbiased thoughts on one of the most important new additions to the Avalanche:

Star-divide

I like the numbers on the front of the helmets. There, I said it. If you disagree, you're obviously wrong.

Discuss.

Also, we all need to lighten up, Francis.

I also like the numbers on the front of the helmets! As well as every other move the Avs have made in the past several years!

Burgundy, welcome back man! We’ve missed you! We Avs fans have been very kool-aid deficient lately – I hope you brought lots of cups to share with everyone.

Were all close here, we can just drink right out of the pitcher. Maybe…

Datsyuk may have done it first, but he learned it from Peter Forsberg.

Thanks for everything Foppa!

One reason not to put numbers on the fronts of helmets..

It gives Andy Sutton another bullseye to aim for.

The reason I'm in town, in case you're wondering, is because of a Kansas City Shuffle.

Frakin’ Andy Sutton. Dislike him greatly, I do.

Didn’t even notice the numbers till I looked at the pic of Cody. I don’t know if I like them or not.

Hrm.

A little rudeness and disrespect can elevate a meaningless interaction to a battle of wills and add drama to an otherwise dull day.

Haven't seen any updates posted here

Read on rotoworld.com that Mueller was put on IR but is able to come off at any time. Giguere could be ready to play Wednesday.

They really need to complete the look and put numbers on the bottom of skates, so when our smaller forwards get knocked over we can tell who they are before they get up.

But if you were part of the crew cleaning out the rafters after the game, would you give Roy his jock back?

Datsyuk may have done it first, but he learned it from Peter Forsberg.
