Colorado Avalanche History
The Avalanche, who have won three Stanley Cup Championships (1996, 2001 and 2022), began as the Quebec Nordiques of the World Hockey Association in 1972. After capturing one WHA title, the Nordiques joined the NHL in 1979. The franchise moved to Denver in 1995 and became the Colorado Avalanche under the leadership of Pierre Lacroix.
In the Avalanche's 28 years in Colorado, the team has captured 12 Division Championship titles, three Conference Championship titles, three President's Trophy honors, and has retired six player jerseys including Joe Sakic, Peter Forsberg, Milan Hejduk, Patrick Roy, Adam Foote and Ray Bourque.

Colorado Avalanche at Ball Arena
The 2022 Stanley Cup Champions Colorado Avalanche bring their fast-paced and hard-hitting style to Ball Arena, home to one of the most interactive fan experiences in sports. Ever since the Avalanche debuted in Colorado over two decades ago, the team has inspired a passionate following — fans that gave the franchise the NHL record for most consecutive sold-out home games during the 1995-1996 season.
The Colorado Avalanche’s 2023–24 regular season kicks off in October at Crypto.com Arena, when the Avalanche face off against the Los Angeles Kings. The Avalanche play their final game of the regular season at home against Western Conference rivals the Edmonton Oilers. Here’s a list of key games to keep an eye on:
Tickets for the 2023–24 regular season can be purchased on Ticketmaster, the Official Ticket Marketplace of the Colorado Avalanche.
The Avalanche have made three appearances in the Stanley Cup Final, and have won all three times (in 1996, 2001 and 2022). They are the only NHL team that has won at all of its appearances in the Stanley Cup Final.

The NHL rolled out a tight product on Saturday for the Stadium Series game, but the really fun stuff happened Friday, when the Avs Alumni beat the Red Wing Alumni. Coors field did a fairly good job in working with the NHL and the Avs to host the events.
The most fun I had in a while it was Amazing! The atmosphere was fun and welcoming it was a mini party with hockey at its center an unforgettable experience.
Amazing 2-night event. Well done!! Great seats (upper level at the mile-high mark of Coors Field with great sight lines and views of the mountains.
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see an NHL game outdoors. Everything was incredibly well done- from the activities outside to the field layout and the entertainment. Really special to see Roy, Sakic and Forsberg back on the ice together playing one last time. The regular game was also great but wish the final score was better. Both nights seemed like a combination of a festival and a playoff event. Really fun. Highly recommend to any hockey fan.
This was a great event for the city of Denver and the Avs organization. However it was a very poor fan experience. The NHL should not have sold tickets below the 20th row. It was just about impossible to follow the action on the ice from down low, except by watching it on the JumboTron. Could have stayed home and watched on TV! People who sat high, could see the ice, but from very far away. The exorbitant price for this fan experience was simply not justifiable!
Great atmosphere. Disappointed in our seats. Ended up with an obstructed view and had to watch the game on the TV screen.
Until you experience an outdoor hockey game, it is hard to explain the atmosphere. The Colorado Avalanche and Detroit Red Wings, along with their avid fans, put on a great spectacle in a great sport. The energy level from the outdoor fan experience to the stadium and game, the whole weekend exceeded my expectations.
It was alright. Nothing really to boast about or to critisize
Very happy to have experienced these games in my lifetime.
An amazing event by the NHL, city of Denver, and the Colorado Avalanche. Perfect weekend.
While the atmosphere of the game was exciting it was offset by the terrible view of the ice. IF they are going to charge these exorbitant prices for the tickets they need to set up the rink so the fans can actually see the play on the ice.
The only way I could see the play on the ice was to watch the scoreboard.
Had a great time at both the Alumni and regular season games. I love baseball just as much as I love hockey, so to see hockey outside on a baseball field was pretty awesome. Despite the ice melting a little too much, and the wind blowing the fake snow around, you couldn't ask for a better night for some outdoor hockey. It was the perfect way to celebrate 20 years of the Colorado Avalanche and to do it against our biggest rival in franchise history was the cherry on top. The only thing that brought the weekend down? The fact that we lost the game on Saturday night.
I am a true Roy fan and have always missed seeing him in the net. This was a dream come true to see him play, and it lived up to what I wanted. On top of this, the evening was amazing. I loved the history, the comrades assembling and laughing together. The venue was perfect along with the weather and the fireworks. The only thing I would change, is that I would have been able to meet Roy, but that would have been asking for a bit much. We had great seats and were able to see so much. I hope we are able to have another outdoor game in the future. I would definitely make an effort to be there.
This was an amazing once in a lifetime opportunity.
Too expensive!!! Ridiculous!! Give customers a choice of 1 game or 2.
People were complaining about the cost of the tickets, and they were not cheap. HOWEVER, this wasn't just a hockey game. This was a weekend event, with memories that will last a lifetime! We had tickets in the 3rd level, but they were great seats! Could see the puck and follow the play easily. Only problem was you couldn't see when a goal was scored at the far end of the ice...but the players reaction told you that, so minor issue. The events before the games started the excitement, and the atmosphere inside the stadium continued to raise the buzz. So glad that we took this once in a lifetime opportunity. The fake snow tearing up from the field from the wind was pretty hilarious, and only added to the memories. I wasn't there for the pre and during game entertainers, but I thought it was great that the NHL got the local boys from The Fray to play at this game.
The introductions and the games were very well done, once you got there, but the ticket sales were confusing and no mention was made of pre-tickets for parking at the time of original sale. I had a physically handicapped person with me and we had to walk all over the place to find a ticket exchange and elevators.
Such a fabulous experience - for the players, for the fans & for the crew! Seems like Mothah Nature was a bit upset concerning the fake snow, though. She made her feelings known with the wind to help create the ground blizzard on Saturday night. I'm still on a hawkey high!
