GDT: R2G4 - Stars @ Avs - The Gang makes a GDT

[cccoltsicehockey]

So the guy who was doped up is the only guy who knew how to hit the net with a shot?

Coke and Vodka Russian Fuel. Make better.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

I wish the dude running PepsiVision would put a shot clock up on our next PP.

 

[dahrougem2]

Game 5 is going to be a massacre.

I'm guessing it ends 7-1

 

[Freudian]

So you think Sam and Erica are back together?

 

[CharlesPuck]

Shot wide. Shot blocked. Shot wide. Missed the mark. No shots on goal.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Pete Deboer just knows how to beat the Avs.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

We also don't know how to screen a goalie for shit.

Did in round 1. Forgot how, or just decided not to in round 2

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

There was a period during the trade deadline where I believed this roster was going to be better than 22. Man I feel foolish.

Literally a week ago, this team had that 2022 look.


Quite frankly I really think they win tonight if the Nuke bomb didn't drop. I really think people underestimate how ridiculously important he was to our success, and also how huge of an impact that kind of news has on the team.

Its also why I dont get the people blaming Bednar for this one. Dude likely found out ~4-5 hours before the game that Nuke was no longer available and then found out an hour or so before that Toews wasn't either. You really just cant come back from that kind of breakdown.


Maybe if Landy was actually playing, that kind of leadership could have dragged the others into the fight. But ya without Landy this was clearly the only possible result.


I think they'll actually look better in Dallas on Wednesday, but I still expect a loss and the series to be over in 5 games.

It feels like every Avs player is just really stupid. Can't read a play or find the puck.

The Avs don't prioritize IQ at all, Mitts has good IQ but not elite... felt like a revelation because his head isn't filled with rocks.

 

[sethro109]

I hope the next "Fire Bednar" thread doesn't get unjustly closed again.

 

[Avsfan1921]

We also don't know how to screen a goalie for shit.

The guy that does that is currently unavailable due to….. reasons.

 

[RockLobster]

The players played like shit, but I still maintain that Bednar owns some of this as well. He wants to talk about his top players being “stubborn”? Well what do you call a coach who doesn’t care to line match and get his top offensive players away from a D-pairing that had only allowed something like 1 goal against (Mikko’s in G3) in the 80+ minutes he’s gone up against MacKinnon & Eichel?

 

[dahrougem2]

Lol even the announcers ripping on the Avs.

"Imagine that Avs get a powerplay late in a game down 3... don't even hit the net once."

 

[henchman21]

Yes. You do.

Nah... I'm all cocaine cowboys now.

 

[AvsWraith]

Pete Deboer just knows how to beat the Avs.

That's cause he's never had 4giev and the no shows.

 

[Grigowski]

Game Over. Season Over.

Have fun on the golf course by Thursday.....

 

[sethro109]

The guy that does that is currently unavailable due to….. reasons.

Well he got his knee cut in the bubble.

 

[TheGrimReaper]

peace out faithful

we've been played

again

 

[The Kingslayer]

That's cause he's never had 4giev and the no shows.

I dunno. He beat the Avs with Martin Jones lol

 

[BoneCherry]

Mediocrity is the Avs mantra.

 

[henchman21]

So you think Sam and Erica are back together?

NGL... both can do better.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Special teams has not been good for the Avs this series

 

[Arch angel]

Bednar. at some point you lead this team. enjoy the fruits of your labor.

 

[dahrougem2]

So how different does next year's team look?

No Nichushkin, Drouin, Cogliano, Trenin, Duhaime, Parise, Kiviranta, Walker, and maybe Georgiev?

 

[expatriatedtexan]

Pete Deboer just knows how to beat the Avs.

Is he the one that gave Nuke the bump and Toews the mumps?
