Russell Wilson is new in town and he's making some fast friends.

The newly-acquired Denver Broncos quarterback showed up to support the Colorado Avalance during Game 1 of the Western Conference First Round against the St. Louis Blues.
Wilson egged on the rowdy crowd at Ball Arena, holding up a sign with the Avalanche logo that read "Playoff Noise!"

Wilson was traded to the Broncos from the Seattle Seahawks back in March. The 33-year-old signal-caller played 10 seasons for the Seahawks and led them to victory in Super Bowl XLVIII in 2013.
While still with the Seahawks, Wilson was a big
supporter of the Kraken
during their inaugural season.
