Colorado Avalanche superfan Ryan Clark made sure that his best friend got the tribute that he deserved.

His best friend, Kyle Stark, died unexpectedly in December of 2021, and the two were familiar faces at Avalanche home games.
After the funeral, Stark's parents invited Clark to an Avalanche game at Ball Arena, and he brought some of his friends ashes with him to the game.
"We had him in a little baggie. We got Kyle over the glass and into the ice. An usher had come up to me and was like, 'Hey dude, what was that?' and I said, 'Well, to be honest with you, that was my best friend Kyle. He died'," Clark said.

It was just a couple days later when he received a letter stating that he had been banned from Avalanche events at Ball Arena for the rest of the season.
Clark said he wouldn't change a thing had he another chance:
"I'd do it all over again with the biggest smile on my face like I did the last time. I know in my heart that's where he wanted to be," he said. "When asked constantly, 'where do you think he is?' Well, that Zamboni got him all over the ice. Realistically, again, not the brightest idea, but in my heart the best way I could give tribute to my friend for what he truly loved more than anything in the world."
