Game 1 WCQF: Colorado Avs (WC2) at Nashville Predators (1) 9:30 PM ET | SN, TVAS, NBCSN, FS-TN, ALT

[Super Hans]

I've watched most games Soderberg has played since being in Colorado and that crosscheck to Seth Jones' kidneys after the OT winner this season was the only other cheap shot I've seen him take.

 

[NOTENOUGHJTCGOALS]

Barely noticed him. Watch a game. Don’t look at the scoresheet! $8M is way too much for that wimp.

Did you notice MacGinnon at any point besides getting clowned on the empty net goal against?

 

[Jonesey]

He shot it after the whistle, every team would respond that way.

There were 2 seconds left.

 

[PenguinSpeed]

No..we have a variety...and none of them need an air horn to remind the crowd when to rev em up. Talk about annoying Pens fan? An air horn? Serisouly? Is this 1997?

-That's the goal horn. Other teams cant seem to turn it off when they play in our arena.

 

[cgf]

Dont respond to that guy. I dont know who he is but dont let him be a representative of the Avs fan base. Most of us like the Preds.

Yeah not a good look from her or Burnaby Joe

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

-That chant is ridiculously annoying. Its like the only chant Nashville knows. Best Atmosphere in hockey? Please

It is supposed to be grating and it seems to be working lmao.
Don't like it? Just hope they stay off the scoreboard at home.

 

[a mangy Meowth]

Dafuq? Sorry but you must talk about another Soderberg then.

He's mad because Soderberg slashed Jones one time

 

[Cashville]

I’m willing to bet Preds’ fans don’t have a clue about any other teams in the league. They get told what to do at the game and do it. They’re loud? Yay!

Most Preds fans' hockey lineage predates the franchise by a wide margin. I grew up a Whalers fan in CT; went to college in Nashville right as we got the franchise and the rest is history. We have a ton of Thrashers fans, we have snowbirds who simply migrated to a different team, etc. Not sure a gross generalization with zero empirical evidence on an internet forum is a compelling datapoint.

It was a great game; credit to the Avs.

 

[wadesworld]

We get it. Talk about ****ing annoying.

I know right? Why don't we real traditions like the real NHL teams and chant "GO (team) GO!" all game long?

 

[caslava]

$8M lol

Soderberg for 4.75 ha! I’ve seen better players playing for inter bratislava in the 2. Ligue

Shame on fans for having fun at a game, they should sit on their hands in silence and hang their heads when their team scores

Hockey elitists are the absolute worst type of fan

Well played sir! And if opposing teams don't want to hear our annoying chants, there is a pretty easy way to do that. Don't give us a reason.

 

[crue7]

well guys as you can see we have a lot of sensible posters. Some, not so much but we outweigh the few.
Good game smashville, I want you guys to take it all if you get past us.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Bunch of salty people in here. lol.

Its literally 2 guys.

Bandwagon fans?

Yikes, how many of those players could even play in the AHL? The country is kinda barren for hockey talent lately lol

I guess Soderberg really does suck!

 

[rmthomson21]

Meh, Avs the better team through two periods. Preds had an insane 3rd. Play the same way on Saturday and they might steal one of the away games.

You realize this guy almost has 3 50 point seasons and was a beast this year in a pure shutdown role...right? I love my slovaks since we're about to have some marrying into the family, but there isn't a player as good as Soda playing pro in Slovakia right now

 

[CMDEADLY]

Bandwagon fans?

Just stop man. You don’t know our fanbase.

 

[Sacha Baron Corbin]

Bandwagon fans?

Same could probably be said about Colorado’s fan base if we are going down this road

(The majority of Avs fans on this site seem really cool though, just making a point for arguments sake)

 

[crue7]

Just stop man. You don’t know our fanbase.

dude, don't even fall for the bait. He's embarrassing us real fans

 

[a mangy Meowth]

Its literally 2 guys.

Wasn't the Boston-Toronto thread for a blowout game like 90+ pages of salt?

Tight game for the most part and we haven't even hit 20 lol

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

Dont respond to that guy. I dont know who he is but dont let him be a representative of the Avs fan base. Most of us like the Preds.

By the whining from a few about a chant that is supposed to be a jimmy rustler, I can safely assume that that poster reps 100% of avs fans.

No worries, that was the first post I read, now i realize he and that Joe guy are just dic... er, tro... er,... agitators.. yeah, agitators is permissible here...

What's funny is the Aves have barely been around longer than the Preds. Not to mention Denver once had so few hockey fans they lost their team. About a big of a hockey town as Atlanta...
