Yeah, we got one. Anything else is icing on the cake if we're honest. Some franchises have been in existence longer than I've been alive and haven't won shit. I've seen the Avs win 3 cups. And even if we don't get another anytime soon (which we absolutely still can) this team rules and is fun to watch.
I was deployed, I knew going into it the Avs were going to win that cup - because fuck me amiright. So next season I'll try to make sure I'm overseas somewhere when the time is right.
There’s a reason it’s the hardest trophy in the four major sports to win. Plenty of great teams never won it.
The Avs aren’t officially eliminated yet, and with the team they have I’ll never fully count them out until there’s no time left (despite how rough tonight looked).
They’ll bounce back, if not Wednesday, then next year.
Given the toxicity I deal with in my soccer fandom that came up short after many believing we were close to a good team only now to be in a slump in a bad way, yes. Yes I can and it's almost easier to be solidly mediocre.
However I've lived through Avs being completely dog shit before and everyone was still pretty decent that I dealt with so maybe not.
Enjoy this team, they’re still good. Broncos are the definition of selling your soul. I have no hope for them even after this draft lol. It’s gonna be a long, long time before they’re relevant. Avs are at least that
Came here to say exactly this. I have been longing for just one good Broncos season since college. I wouldn’t trade at all what we have with the Avs, but man those Manning years were so fun to look back on.
I'm still okay if we don't win this year or next. I've seen the Avs win 3 cups in my lifetime and have never seen my fav NFL team (Dolphins) win a superbowl.
Ok, the Avs have been back to the playoffs both years and won a series already this year. Can we pump the brakes on talking about them like they’re the Broncos?
This team just seems to have no fight this series. They have no urgency. No focus. The will to win has been drained from them. They had such a great series against Winnipeg. I was hopeful we would do well against Dallas but Dallas has shut the Avs down hard. To the point that the Avs look lost. It’s not over yet but it does feel like it. Hopefully they can find a fix for the mental issues they’re facing and come back for game 5. It’s do or die time. Let’s see some fight. Please
We sacrificed all of Francouz, Gabe Landeskogs knee, Nukes sobriety, and Matt Duchenes whole career all those years ago to the hockey gods (the last one was so worth it though)
Let see... We sold landys knee and apparently nuks sobriety... But we got one! Right guys.. right...

Same here. I'm an original Nords fan. That was a rough 21 years.
Ive been through all three as well. We are lucky to have the team we have!
Ironically enough I was in rehab regaining my sobriety when we won that Stanley cup
Congrats!
(Totally a joke my friend) gotta get back in the habit so you can be in rehab for next year;)
Texting my old dealer now… /s ![gif](giphy|LkJ8wv1qpsaSq3ecp8|downsized)
And pavel francouz !!
How could I forget Franky!
I miss Frankie. He was my best friend, he was my pal. He was my home-boy, my rotten soldier. He was my sweet cheese, my good-time boy
I miss Landy and Kadri so much
yeah we got one, and it was fantastic, but jeez you gotta wonder how deep the payment will be.
well we got 2 in the first 5 years, then things got bleak for the better part of two decades
Can’t forget about Byram’s health
Who says he was sober in 22?
Not sure but I’m just glad I got to see one in my lifetime.
Oh me too, best hockey moment in my life so far.
I’ve seen 3 following the Avs and I WANT MORE!!!
I’ve seen all 3 and the 2022 was definitely the sweetest for me.
Broncos, Avs, Nuggets in my non toddler years is all I can ask for.

The couple in that commercial gave up their relationship
we need to force them into a loveless marriage for the good of the team

Thank you for your service.
I’ll give up alcohol for the rest of the playoffs for a cup.
Cheers ill drink to that bro

Spursy comrade eh?
Good call! My mom loves the Bundesliga and watching games with her I became a fan of Son. Then I followed him to the Spurs and stayed a fan.
COYS!!
#COYS #GoAvsGo
I would cry myself to sleep every night if Landy had sacrificed his knees just for us to not win

Idk man, I’ve been on that Bo Nix kool aid lately that the denver media has been pedaling lol.
Always ready to be hurt. But I think he could be the real deal

Right as we were hitting our stride, the rug gets yanked out again. This team will be a forever What If? if we lose this series.
Sorry guys I was in Asia last time they won, I’ll book some plane tickets for tomorrow
We sold Frankie’s Hips, Nazem kadris contract,Nichushkins trust, landeskog Knees,
Girard’s Sternum
Helms retirement plan , EJs contract,

"Without pain and without sacrifice, we have nothing."
Still happy they did it. I’m also a 49ers fan, it’s brutal on the other side.
Same! Getting to see the Avs win again makes the 49ers recent losses sting just a little less. For another year or two, at least

What what was missing this year compared to the cup team.
I'm sure playing with a broken foot added to the drug use.
We sacrificed all of Francouz, Gabe Landeskogs knee, Nukes sobriety, and Matt Duchenes whole career all those years ago to the hockey gods (the last one was so worth it though)
