The Avs had to call in an emergency backup goalie during a Nov. 12 game in Winnipeg against the Jets. Byron Spriggs suited up but didn't quite make it onto the ice.
"You really don't understand maybe in the heat of the moment what actually is going on, you know," Spriggs told us. "You really are technically one bad incident away from being in an NHL game."
Former 9NEWSer now CNN photojournalist Andy Buck (@AndyJediBuck) also joined us in the studio where Steve and Geoff reminded him why the Avs rock.
