We didn't update Invasion VII coverage in the last three days, because we splitt in two groups. One traveled to Chicago, the second was in San Francisco. For now, photo albums of both trips are available at Invasion.Eurolanche.com. You can read a report of Chicago trip at Eurolanche.com. San Francisco's chapter will be online soon.

Thursday in Denver began in a fantastic way. We got special game day practice pass that allowed us to visit a practice in Pepsi Center that isn't available for a public. We could see our idols almost alone in the stands. Even one of our members got a hockey stick from Gabriel Landeskog.

Then we moved for a meeting with Milan Hejduk. It took more than hour and it would have lasted longer if there remained more free time. Milan was great and answered every question; took many photos with us and also gave his signature on dozens of souvenirs. We are very thankful to him for this event.

Second-to-last game of our trip followed in the evening and it ended with fantastic result for the Avalanche. Denver Post's reporter Terry Frei did interview with us prior the game.
