Colorado Avalanche Tickets
Ever since moving to the Mile High City, the Colorado Avalanche have lived up to their name, and been one of the most powerful forces of nature for fans and ticket holders in Denver sports. After playing in the NHL since 1979, and sadly being one of the worst teams in the league for 7 years, the Quebec Nordiques were transferred down to the United States and rebranded and renamed the Colorado and renamed. This new franchise delighted Colorado fans and quickly became a hot ticket item in Denver as the new team improved their playing greatly and finished with a 47-25-10 record. Not only did they have a great regular season record, but the Avalanche made it to the league playoffs and then eventually went on to win the Stanley Cup Championship. Throughout this time, ticket sales soared, as they became the pride of the city and the first major professional team to win a championship in Denver.
For their first several seasons, the Colorado Avalanche bestowed thousands of tickets to fans for games at the historical McNichols sports arena. Beginning in 1999 the team made a major move and as part of an expansion of the local sports complex began playing and selling tickets to games at the brand new Pepsi Center, located in the heart of Downtown Denver. Before making this move, the Avalanche began of streak selling out tickets to their regular season home games. The trend began on November 9, 1995 and continued through the next 487 games. Lasting for a total of 11 years, this set an NHL record for the longest consecutive ticket sellouts for any team.

Not to be forgotten, goalie Patrick Roy quickly became a favorite and big ticket draw for fans as he proved himself to be one of the greatest goaltenders in NHL history. Along with defenseman Ray Borque, both Sakic and Roy are part of on elite group who have had their team jersey numbers retired as an honor to dedication and success within the sport.
Hockey is a sport oftentimes associated with violence, and the Colorado Avalanche have been no exception to this rule and have encouraged the ticket sales for many fans who love to come and experience this aspect of the game. On March 8, 2004 Canuck player Todd Bertuzzi took to punching Avalanche player Steve Moore a retaliation for a fight that had occurred in an earlier game. Moore was knocked unconscious and sustained several injuries that ended his career. As a result it has become tradition for any Avalanche fan Colorado fan that has bought a ticket to a game in which Bertuzzi plays will boo every time he gains possession of the puck. Additionally, every year many fans clamor for tickets to any match that is played between the Colorado Avalanche and their rival the Detroit Red Wings. During the span of 1996 to 2002 the Red Wings and Avalanche has a show off in five postseason playoff series. The Avalanche went on to win two Stanley Cups during this period, while the Red Wings won three.
With a franchise beginning that some might compare to a fairy tale, the Colorado Avalanche have remained a favorite ticket sellers for fans in Denver as they have had a successful and winning past. They are a team that will never give up and will always delight the fans of the Mile Hi City.
Throughout franchise history, the Colorado Avalanche have delighted many and sold an abundance of tickets, partially due to the consistent presence of some of hockey's best players on the team.
