Congrats to him, sucks for us fans to lose another great resource. Sounds like an amazing opportunity.

Does this mean his prediction website will go offline?

Hopefully he continues tweeting, too. Very bright guy.

Going to be interesting to see the 180 that certain posters will take on the Avs with this news.

Hopefully he continues tweeting, too. Very bright guy.

And all his past tweets have already been deleted, and I doubt he'll release much publicly.

His work on his personal blog and on hockey-graphs still seems to be up, but who knows about that.

Now the Avs just have to do what they couldn't do in the past - listen to (or even just accept the input from) the people that they're paying to do this.

Kroenke is an ass.

Good luck to this fella.
