Five for Friday –  the curated list of hockey links to help you put an end to the last day of the week. Nothing too serious… just some hockey links for the hockey fan in you.

We’re always researching for a project/podcast and finding cool stuff worth sharing. Sometimes it’s videos, sometimes it’s cool tweeps worth following. Other times it’s articles from folks who swim in the deep-end of the hockey knowledge pool. Here’s what we’ve found this week. Stay Awesome!

1. Check out the way they’ve gamified the players with PlayStation like metrics.
2. According to EA Sports NHL 2016 rankings, the Avs don’t have a player in the top 50 of the league. 
3. Avalanche Nation is very excited about the singing of JT Compher… here’s what Mike Chambers had to say about him
4. Check this guy out “Ole Kristian Tollefsen – “The Norwegian Nightmare”
   
5. We did a really cool podcast with Dan Price, you should check it out if you’re at all interested in how the Avs logo came into existence.
