Blockbuster! Jack Eichel Traded to Vegas

By; Maeve Hushman, Staff Writer

After the Buffalo Sabres’ disastrous 2020-2021 season in which they famously went on a 18-game winless streak, there was a lot of speculation that their star center and captain, Jack Eichel, had requested a trade. Eichel is one of the best Americans in the NHL right now; he was drafted second overall in 2015 behind the best player in the league Connor McDavid. Eichel trade talk dominated both the 2021 trade deadline as well as the entire off-season. People were listing off all sorts of teams who could be interesting, among the most intriguing was the power-house Vegas Golden Knights. On November 4th, it was announced that Eichel and a 2022 3rd round pick had been traded to the Golden Knights for Payton Krebs, Alex Tuch, a 2022 1st Round pick, and a 2023 2nd round pick.

Slow Week: Avalanche take 3 of 4 points

By: Maeve Hushman, Staff Writer

The Avalanche only played two games this week (or at least in the Saturday-Friday timeline I cover). It is a much smaller sample size, but no less important to the analysis of the Avalanche’s play. They beat the Wild 4-1 and then lost to the Columbus Blue Jackets 5-4 in overtime.

Things to Fix:

Will the Avalanche ever play a full 60 minutes of hockey? The world may never know. In all seriousness, even when they win there have been periods in which they take their foot off the gas. In the Wild game it was in the second period and had no real consequences, but in the Columbus game it allowed the Columbus Blue Jackets to score 4 uninterrupted goals. The Avs came back by the skin of their teeth and by two bad icing moves by the Blue Jackets. I really sound like I’m a looping recording, but if you cannot play a full 60 minutes of hockey it is much harder to win. There should be no moments off, the Avalanche need to come out of the gate fast and dominant, then maintain that. Kuemper really saved them in that second period against the Wild and when he wasn’t in net Johansson, despite a tremendous showing in the first and second periods, could not pick up the slack.

Fall Essential: 3 Best Photo Spots On-Campus

By: Vivian Pham, Staff Writer

Are you looking for perfect spots to take those cozy crunchy pumpkin spicy photos to post on Instagram? Allow me to introduce you to the wonder of Regis University campus. It is one of the most beautiful places to take fall pictures and here’s my top three spots that will literally transform your fall vibe.

1.The Quad in front of Main Hall – This is one of the prettiest photoshoot spots I've ever been on. All you need is some aesthetic fall clothes, a good phone/cameras, and a bit of luck for a sunny day (sunlight is the best natural light). Finally, let the camera does its magic.

2. Red tree clusters across West Hall – You know it’s fall when the trees start to turn red and everything just fell like a scene from When Harry Met Sally. So go out there, put on your best outfit, and turn this season into your own “main character” movie.

3.     The street between Chapel and Claver Hall – Mountains are a specialty in our fall photoshoot here in Colorado. With that being said, you don’t have to actually go to the mountains to take your fall pictures, you can literally do it right here on campus! My usual morning walk to class will not be complete without taking that downhill route between the Chapel and Claver Hall. The best time to take it though is in the morning when the sky is clear, the slight breeze sliding on your skin and the early morning light shining on your face.

Recording Courses Available at Regis

By Morgan Jacobus, Editor in Chief

Do you have an interest in producing music? For Spring 2022 there is a music production course, the first of a sequence of recording courses at Regis that ultimately teach students to record, mix, master, release, and promote their own recordings as artists and/ or producers.

The professor teaching the course is Cory Cullinan, who wrote, “I have spent my entire career doing just that for both myself and other artists – last month, for example, I produced tracks with multiple Grammy-winners, one of which opened a United Nations General Assembly meeting and two others that charted on two different national charts.”

The course takes place on Fridays 11:00-1:30, and is worth 3 credits. Below is the official class code (as you would find on WebAdvisor) as well as course description:

FAMT 432E Live/ Studio Digital Recording: Students master basic recording arts; sound, acoustics & design; microphones; digital audio & digital audio workstations; ProTools; and operation of the Regis Recording Studio & Claver Recital Hall. Students make a live recording in Claver Recital Hall & a Studio Recording in Regis Recording Studio. We’ll mix projects as a class. Required reading: Modern Recording Techniques (9th Edition).

Cullinan continued, “By the first day of the spring semester, we’ll not only have an amazing performance hall (Claver) ready to make top-notch recordings, we’ll also have an amazing and revitalized multi-room recording studio ready to make top-notch recordings. All we need now… is YOU!”

If you are interested in more information about this course, reach out to Cory Cullinan at ccullinan@regis.edu

Rust Shooting: Conflicting Tales of A Tragedy Behind the Silver Screen

By: Madelynn Loring, Staff Writer

On October 21, 2021, tragedy struck the set of upcoming Western drama Rust. While rehearsing a scene, Alec Baldwin, the lead actor of the film, fired a live round from a revolver, killing award-winning cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injuring director Joel Souza. Since then, Hollywood has been reeling from the shock of this traumatic event. The actor has reportedly been distraught, making only a few public statements about the event and complying completely with law enforcement investigations. Rust Production Studios, responsible for the production of the film, released a statement claiming that, “the safety of the cast and crew is [their] top priority,” yet conflicting stories have emerged from the set concerning the accuracy of this claim.
