White, born in Aurora, Colorado to parents from Minnesota who moved for the skiing and stayed for the hockey. He was 10 during the 2022 Cup and his father took him to Games 3 and 4 and he wept without embarrassment in the 100 level. Studied sports communications at Colorado State, worked at Altitude TV covering the Avs on the B-crew, and broke into the A-seat when MiTL poached him for his combination of mountain-state energy and genuine hockey IQ. He skis on off-days. He talks about altitude the way climbers talk about summit.
Fan Perspective
