Oh man, snow climbs on 14ers are awesome. Cristo Couloir up Quandary is a classic as is Emperor Couloir up Torreys.
That said, if you're looking at snow climbs, you can do a lot better than the 14ers in the area. Check out this book. It is quite good.
Also, it goes without saying, you should invest some time into learning how to use your ice ax for things like self belay and self-arrest.
Climb on!
Can't speak for Denali - as I haven't done it or anything nearly as big (~16,000 feet is the highest I've gone) but it's on my radar for the not so distant future. I live in Colorado and it sounds like you are also a Colorado local. You should check out this guide book - Colorado Snow Climbs. There are a lot of fantastic climbs out here that will make for great practice for Denali. These are also a ton less crowded than the front/sawatch range 14ers - even in winter/spring.
