In brief bursts Friday night at Ball Arena, a rowdy crowd told Valeri Nichushkin all is forgiven. They cheered. They clapped. And they shouted “Choo!” when he handled the puck a minute into the game. While the “open arms” proclamation from the Avs organization and teammates deserves scrutiny, there was no question the fans welcomed Big Val back into their embrace. The warm vibes practically melted the ice when the Avs scored two minutes into the game against the Washington Capitals. The entire thing feels weird.
