What happened: The message was directed to the Avalanche ahead of hockey opening week. Denver opens against the Kings in Denver.

Why it matters: The crosstown note reflects a shared Denver sports calendar as hockey returns. Continuity behind the bench gives the Avalanche a stable opening-week setup.

What to watch: Watch for opening-night lineup decisions and puck drop in Denver.
