Avalanche announce home-opener – first-round playoff rematch

The Avs will host the Calgary Flames on opening night, Oct. 3, at the Pepsi Center. Most of you probably already heard this the other night, but for those who didn’t…

The rest of the NHL schedule will be released June 25.

This should be a fun night, a rematch of the first round of the playoffs. I expect training camp to open around Sept. 14 or so.
