A custom cookie art baker by trade, as soon as she discovered hockey, she put down the icing and picked up her MBA with the goal of starting a career in the sport. The Avalanche became Sarah's favorite team after attending an away game against the Preds. Soon after, Sarah visited Denver and realized that moving to The Centennial State was her fate. When she isn't watching, writing, or talking about hockey, she's baking, crocheting, or reading. Sarah loves to travel, and plans trips around the Avalanche hockey schedule. She bleeds burgundy and blue! Go Avs! - Vee Weir lives and breathes Avalanche hockey. As a veteran content creator and marketer, Vee's work has been featured in Mashable, CNET, Forbes, and more. Vee discovered hockey in 2022 when Colorado won the Stanley Cup. Ever since that fateful day, hockey has been her hyper-fixation and special interest. When she isn't watching, writing, or talking about hockey, she's curled up under a heated blanket, reading or cuddling with her three dogs.   **Special Thanks:** - Corey Tyler - Sound Engineer + Branding - Joseph Bogumill - Podcast Editor
