The road to 100 Avs games (2.)
In this new photo series, we look at Eurolanche's journey to 100 Avs games.Eurolanche, the largest Colorado Avalanche Fan Club in the world, reached a historic milestone on January 10, 2026, when its members watched the Avalanche's 100th game as part of Eurolanche on Tour, formerly known as Eurolanche Invasion.
To mark the occasion, an extensive article was published with detailed statistics providing an overview of all 100 games that Fan Club members have seen in North America.
Let's now take a look at Eurolanche's journey to this milestone through a photo series and commemorative comments focusing on memorable moments related to attending Avalanche games overseas.
EUROLANCHE INVASION II (2008/09) - 3 games (9/100)
In the 2008/09 season, Eurolanche prepared the first two trips - it was the first and last time that we went to Denver twice in the same season. From an organizational point of view, it was difficult and impossible to repeat. The second trip was similar to the first - getting to know the city, fulfilling dreams and proving to all European Avalanche fans that nothing is impossible. Meetings with players after games, training or just with a great person Peter Budaj were unforgettable. The question hung in the air - When will we return to Denver again and in what numbers?
Attending non game day practice- outside of a game day.
Meeting with Milan Hejduk right in the practice facility.
We also repeatedly got to practice in the arena, which was then called the Pepsi Center - right on the game day.
This was the last season that Joe Sakic played. Unfortunately, we didn't see him play in Invasion I or II due to injury.
A beautiful collection and a keepsake forever!
