Colorado Avalanche

Let's start with ESPN sure does know how to do a sports documentary. I lived in Michigan in 1996 and 1997, and the director captured what was going on at the time. The Detroit Red Wings had been down for a long time, but were slowly climbing back into respectability under the ownership of the Ilitch family.

I got goosebumps and I'm not even a fan of either team. But oh, my God, look in the eyes of the participants twenty-five years later; especially Brandon Shanahan. Twenty-five years later. "The Last Dance" was great, but it was peak inside something we'd normally never get to see. "Unrivaled" grabs you by the emotions and doesn't let go.

The NFL and MLB have played international games in recent years and now it looks like the NHL is close to having both preseason and regular season games played internationally.

The Detroit Red Wings and Colorado Avalanche will play an outdoor game Saturday Night at Coors Field in Denver.  It's an important game for both teams, but I am also looking forward to the Alumni Game which will be Tomorrow Night.
