While I’m sure Tyson Barrie and Colin Wilson didn’t pose like this deliberately for the photo it’s framed perfectly with their sticks crossed between them while they’re talking.
”Great work today, buddy!”

The Tumblr content is a bit more lighthearted, which is always fun.

Even though taking photos of the team is a big part of their job, it’s cute that they still get excited when a photo turns out well.

The media team are making sure that the players get the correct credit for their social media activity.

After a break for a few weeks the Avalanche podcast is back, with Alexander Kerfoot as a guest. It’s really interesting listening to him talk about hockey, and college hockey in particular. It’s definitely worth a listen.
Alexander Kerfoot brought the goods to today’s podcast episode!

One of the things I really love about the Avalanche media team is how excited they get by fan-created content.
We LOVE this Landy graphic!

I’m not sure if they’re just excited because Sven Andrighetto is actually wearing socks for once, or because his socks match his tie. Either way I love this.
Please note the socks.#GoAvsGo pic.twitter.com/eSXUiiTUlc

While the media team continue with their excellent fan engagement they do like to have fun with people who are also fans of other teams.
Your bio says Canucks fan... 🤔

I’m easily amused and Barrie puns always make me smile.

Things got physical towards the end of the game against the Minnesota Wild. The media team were, of course, cheering things on.
