Comment on University of Denver hockey brings back red and yellow with 75th anniversary honorary uniform

BROOKLYN, N. Y. — To get their first win of the season, the Nuggets almost had to sacrifice their second. Michael Malone knew the risk he was taking. It narrowly paid off Monday night in Toronto with an overtime breakthrough. But the physical strain on his starters was visible 24 hours later as they instantly struggled to defend the perimeter against a team widely projected to be the worst in the NBA. The Nuggets allowed 40 first-quarter points and fell behind by as many as 17 in the second before they revived themselves again for a 144-139 win over the Nets on Tuesday — again, in overtime. Nikola Jokic lifted his team with another masterpiece: 29 points, 18 rebounds and 16 assists on 9-of-16 shooting.

FORT COLLINS — Who cares that CSU’s stuck in the mother of all pillow fights? It’s a fight the Rams can win, baby. Three words, FoCo faithful: Embrace the ugly. “I really don’t care, to be honest with you, about scheme and all that stuff — it’s about the results,” CSU football coach Jay Norvell said of his Rams (5-3, 3-0 Mountain West), who’ll take a three-game win streak into Nevada on Saturday night. “So we’re committed to playing a certain way … we’re unapologetic about that and we’re going to continue to do the things we feel like we need to do to win.” The Rams sported a winning record on Oct.

The University of Denver hockey team officially unveiled the hockey program’s 75th Anniversary jersey that the team will wear on and off throughout the 2024-25 season. The jersey was first revealed in the third period of the Pioneers’ game against the University of Wisconsin on  Oct. 25 at Magness Arena.

The Carolina Panthers scored two touchdowns against the Broncos defense on Sunday afternoon at Empower Field — on their first and last possessions of the game. In between those two trips to the end zone? Denver forced five punts and recorded two turnovers en route to a 28-14 victory that moved the team to 5-3 ahead of the season’s mid-point. It was the latest show of dominance for a Broncos defense that’s building a reputation for making in-game adjustments and shutting opponents down in the second half of games. Outside of Denver’s season-opening loss to the Seahawks, when it gave up 17 points over the last two quarters, the defense has allowed 31 points (4.4 per game) in the second half of its seven other matchups. “We just know when to lock in and make adjustments on the sideline,” outside linebacker Nik Bonitto said.

What a year this month has been for the Colorado Avalanche. The Avs knew they would be shorthanded to start the 2024-25 season, with three key forwards unavailable until November at the earliest.
