Locked On Avalanche - Daily Podcast On The Colorado Avalanche

Today we are thrilled to finally dive into the Colorado Avalanche's big reveal of their Quebec Nordiques throwback uniforms. These iconic jerseys have taken the NHL by storm, and we break down every detail. We'll look at how authentic the design is, chat about Joe Sakic's surprise appearance as a model, and explore why fans are going crazy for these threads. We break down the schedule on when you'll see the Avs rocking this blast from the past, including a can't-miss game against the Carolina Hurricanes in their Whalers gear. We'll also dissect the reveal process – what worked and what didn't – and I'll share why these jerseys flew off the shelves faster than a Sakic slapshot. 0:00 Intro: Avalanche reveal Quebec Nordiques uniforms2:30 Uniform design and video reveal discussion7:37 Schedule for wearing Nordiques jerseys15:04 Jersey sales and fan excitement21:00 What was learned Subscribe to our Subtext to talk to us directly!https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonavalanche Everything Locked on Avalanche:https://solo.to/lopn_avalanche Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…  🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOAvalanche?sid=YouTube Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL   Follow on X:  Chris: https://twitter.com/c__micieliZach: https://twitter.com/XavierSuperflyShow Page: https://twitter.com/LOPN_Avalanche #NHL #coloradoavalanche  ___________________________________________________________Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!RugietReady to level up your confidence ?
