[ Sports Illustrated ] The Colorado Avalanche have been frequently losing in overtime this season. [ Yahoo Sports ] In case you missed it, and you were unable to buy the Quebec Nordiques throw back, you can sign u...
The Colorado Rockies have paid Kris Bryant $101 million to play 170 games. This breaks down to roughly $594,117 (and a whopping 65 cents) per game that Kris Briant has earned through the first four years of his seven year, $182 million contract that he signed prior to the 2022 season. In those 170 games, […]
After a second painful and last-second road loss so far this season, the Denver Nuggets head home to the friendly confines of Ball… The post Preview: The Denver Nuggets host the Sacramento Kings in Westbrook’s return to Denver appeared first on Denver Stiffs .
The Las Vegas Raiders had a crushing loss in overtime against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. The 30-29 loss brings them to 2-6 on the season, and the team appears more likely to pick in the top ten for the 2025 NFL Draft. Brock Bowers made his return on Sunday with a bang, scoring three […]
In the waning moments of the Portland Trail Blazers’ recent close win against the Denver Nuggets, Blazers forward Toumani Camara wrapped up Nuggets center Nikola Jokic from behind… and forced a jump ball. The play was decisive. The Nuggets, out of challenges, could do nothing but stare. And the NBA’s last two minute report confirmed […]
Portland Trail Blazers reserve guard Blake Wesley sustained a fracture to the fifth metatarsal of his right foot during Portland’s 109-107 win over the Denver Nuggets, the organization announced on Sunday. His timeline for return will be determined at a later date. Wesley, 22, injured the foot during the second quarter of Friday’s win at […]
In Week 10, the Kansas City Chiefs are scheduled for the annual bye week. All three of the AFC West foes will be playing, however. It starts with “Thursday Night Football,” the setting for a matchup between the Las Vegas Raiders and Denver Broncos on Empower Field at Mile High Stadium. According to FanDuel Sportsbook, […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers won on Sunday, knocking off the top seed in the AFC in the process. The Indianapolis Colts stay in the top spot due to a tiebreaker, but New England Patriots are now tied with them in the win-loss column as are the Denver Broncos, leaders of the AFC West. Pittsburgh slots in […]
Update (11/2): Patriots inch closer to No. 1 seed in the AFC after beating Falcons After the early window of games on Sunday, the New England Patriots found themselves down a spot in the AFC playoff picture. An inferior strength of victory tiebreaker meant that they lost the No. 2 seed to the Denver Broncos. […]
The further we get from the Mikko Rantanen shenanigans for last year, the less I understand it. This week, the Colorado Avalanche extended Martin Nečas — the prize for relinquishing Rantanen to Carolina — in a major way, eight years and $92 million ($11.5M annually). The 26-year-old Nečas has been tremendous in an Avalanche sweater: 44…
There was a lot to like in today’s game against the Denver Broncos, but so, SO much more to hate. I don’t even want to recap the Texans’ scoring drives because they relied, exclusively, on the Texans’ patented all-field goal offense. The defense came to play today. And, while the team came up short, they […]
The SAP Center didn’t just get free tacos Saturday afternoon; it got a show. The San Jose Sharks fought a very interesting physical battle against the Colorado Avalanche and walked out with a very nice win. Brought the heat 🔥 pic.twitter.com/i1ksF8sW0g — San Jose Sharks (@SanJoseSharks) November 1, 2025 First period Things didn’t start out well for the Sharks. Less than a minute in, Colorado’s Martin Necas put one past Sharks’ goaltender Yaroslav Askarov with help from...
I’d like to direct this question to Sean Payton. This is Patrick with Battle Red Blog, because we’re professionals here; I simply wanted to ask what the bounty is you have on C.J. Stroud. Because I’ll pay double that for your players to NOT try to end our starting quarterback’s career. This is going to […]
The Colorado Rockies were expected to announce early this week their decision on their new head of baseball operations. Whether they would have the title of president of baseball operations or general manager has yet to be determined. Two candidates who had interviewed for the position last week were Matt Forman, Cleveland Guardians executive vice […]
There have been plenty of big contracts signed by star players to begin the 2025-26 season. It has really cut down the potential free agents for next summer, but the teams that have locked up their players long-term aren't worried about that. The two most recent big contracts signed have been Logan Cooley and Martin Necas, but the Necas deal only got done so quickly because of the shift after Cooley signed for $10 million AAV with the Utah Mammoth. Pierre LeBrun said, "Not too long after that ...
The fifth time was not the charm. The Colorado Avalanche dropped their fifth game in overtime in just their 13th game of the season, falling 3–2 to the San Jose Sharks, which saw two goals from Phillip Kurashev, including the game-winner. It was a familiar theme for the Avalanche: dominate play, yet somehow still come out […]
After the Portland Trail Blazers’ dramatic 109-107 win over the Denver Nuggets on Friday night, if you were anything like this writer, you waited in great anticipation for the NBA’s Last Two Minute report on the game. That’s because you wanted to see how the report would evaluate the call. You know the one. The […]
The cliché, “The early bird gets the worm” has been apt for the Colorado Avalanche to this point in the season. Today, they play their fourth matinee game in seven days as they face the San Jose Sharks for the first time as they kick off the month of November. Colorado Avalanche The Avalanche finished […]

This afternoon marks another tough test for the San Jose Sharks as the Colorado Avalanche arrive in the Bay Area. The Avs are 7-4-1 this season and currently sit atop the Central Division with 18 points. The good news for the Sharks is that this Colorado team could be a bit road weary. This is a short road trip for the Avalanche, but the second of a back-to-back series that started off in Las Vegas yesterday. Colorado beat the Vegas Golden Knights 4-2, but then had to travel to San Jose and no...

The Portland Trail Blazers have their signature win of the early 2025-26 NBA season — a gritty, improbable, come-from-behind, last-second 109-107 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Friday night at home. It came against the perennial-contending Nuggets, despite a big-time 21-point, 14-rebound, nine-assist performance from perennial MVP candidate Nikola Jokic. It happened on a night […]
Will the real Dallas Cowboys please stand up? After yet another loss, this time a 44-24 drubbing on the road to the Broncos, it’s becoming exceedingly more difficult to pin down this team. There’s a few reasons for that, but the biggest factor that sticks out is the home/away splits. When playing in Dallas, the […]
The Miami Dolphins lost Chop Robinson to a concussion on Thursday, and that could benefit Bradley Chubb's future with the team.
