This past year, Writers on the Range, an independent opinion service based in western Colorado, sent out 52 weekly opinion columns. They were provided free of charge to more than 200 subscribing editors of publications large and small, each of whom republished dozens of the columns. Writers on the Range has a simple two-part mission. One of its aims is to engage Westerners in thinking and talking to each other about issues important to the region. The other aim is to entice readers to look forward to these fact-based opinions, with the hope that they’ll then want to keep their local journalism outlet alive and flourishing. This year, the focus of writers ran the gamut from A to W. Abortion bans, wrote Idaho-based Crista Worthy, caused women’s health to suffer severely, while wolves, wrote Story Warren, were unfairly blamed for killing livestock in Colorado. Several columns covered the depleted Colorado River, while longtime journalist Rocky Barker wrote that at last, four Klamath R

Avalanche likely to be bargain hunters as NHL free agent market opens

Unless something changes, the Colorado Avalanche will be bargain hunting when the NHL’s free agent market opens Monday morning. The Avs have a unique set of circumstances, but if what general manager Chris MacFarland said this past weekend at the 2024 NHL draft is true, they have very little room below the salary cap ceiling to work with. Colorado could spend well past the $88 million limit, for now, because Valeri Nichushkin’s $6.125 million cap hit doesn’t go on the books officially until he is reinstated.

The top priority after getting No. 2 center Casey Mittelstadt signed has appeared to be bringing back Jonathan Drouin, who is one of seven Avs players who become unrestricted free agents Monday. Without trading someone off the current roster, that might just not be feasible. “Can it get across the finish l

Letters: Debate was a disaster for Biden and Trump is still unhinged. Now what, America?

Biden should step aside for another candidate who can defeat Trump Last night I watched a debate between two men running for President of the United States; one came across as robust, eco-centric, and delusional; the other as old, befuddled, and confused. My takeaway is that one is off his rocker and the other is, sadly, in need of a rocker. If these are our only choices in November, I can only say, “God help us all.” Kathy Lutwack, Broomfield During Watergate, once it became clear that Nixon was guilty and was headed for impeachment, a group of respected Republican leaders met with Nixon to tell him he had lost the confidence of the party and demanded his resignation for the good of the nation and party. While Joe Biden is a competent president and may or may not be for the next five years, it is now clear that he is no longer a competent candidate. We now need a “come to Nixon” intervention, for the good of the nation and party. Steve Billig, Denver President Biden’s debate per
