Cheer on Denver this weekend!
Over the past few weeks, in-person events have made a comeback. If you're still looking for virtual events, we've got you covered: Events we marked with an * are taking place virtually.
The Colorado Avalanche, ranked first in the NHL West Division, are also on a hot streak. The team plays the St. Louis Blues on Friday and Sunday. And the Denver Nuggets play their first postseason game on Saturday.
