Welcome Mile High Hockey

I would like to take this time to welcome a second hockey blog to the SB Nation.  Mile High Hockey has been added to the lineup of hockey blogs on SB Nation and there are some more to come in the very near future.  Joe has promised some in depth opinions on the Colorado Avalanche that I really look forward to.

Some of you may know me from my original Avalanche blog, the infamous and periodically-popular Dear Lord Stanley.  But make no mistake, Mile High Hockey will not be the same site with a different name.  DLS is dedicated to being as irreverent and sarcastic as possible, and reads more like Defamer or the New York Post than like a proper sports blog.  Mile High Hockey will be a back-to-business blog of record, a stern and steady archive, documenting the ups and downs and side to sides that those we call Avalanche shall endure.

Joe has brought along with him Draft Dodger who will be crunching the numbers and keep everyone informed of the goings on in Colorado.

Along for the ride is a man known merely as Draft Dodger, a statistical whiz who watches Avalanche games with a clipboard in hand, dutifully tracking the numbers for his own strange enjoyment.  You may know him from In The Cheap Seats, his own personal Avalanche blog.  Or you may not.  One thing is for sure, if you read Mile High Hockey on a regular basis, you will get to know him very quickly.  Be afraid.

Welcome to the SB Nation and good luck to Mile High Hockey.  Make sure to stop buy and say hi to the new guys on the block.
