The new NHL 15 trailer already has Iggy wearing the Avs unipron.
Close your eyes if you must, Boston Bruins fans, but we have our first look at Jarome Iginla in a Colorado Avalanche uniform. It comes in the form of the latest "NHL 15″ trailer. The video popped up on the Internet on Wednesday, and once again, it looks spectacular. The trailer details how EA Sports worked to make the players more realistic than ever in the video game. The new improvements will allow users to see incredible detail like jerseys being ruffled as the puck grazes them or players grimacing after taking a big check.
Former DU recruit is at the Avs Prospects Camp.
The young men with NCAA ties participating in the Avalanche's prospects camp this week must pay their own travel costs to keep their college eligibility.
That's not an issue for former University of Denver recruit Landon Smith, a Greenwood Village native who has made the drive to Centennial's Family Sports Center more times than most Avalanche veterans.
Smith, the reigning MVP of the British Columbia Hockey League and finalist as Canada's junior-A player of the year, was extended a camp invitation as an undrafted free agent after his heralded youth/junior career took him to five cities in two countries. He went from the Littleton Hawks to the Colorado Thunderbirds, the Wenatchee (Wash.) Wild, the Cedar Rapids (Iowa) RoughRiders, the Chicago Steel and the Salmon Arm (British Columbia) Silverbacks.
