GDT: Game 71: Predators @ Avalanche - Friday, March 16th, 7PM - Predators and Prey

[Ararana]

Everytime I see Nashville's forward lines I'm surprised they're as good as they are

 

[CobraAcesS]

Avs just came off two wins where they didn't carry the play but made their scoring chances count and got good goaltending. It's not like this is an auto-loss. Just a very tough game since Predators are one of the best two teams in the league.

I'd argue they were better in Minnesota than the shot clock showed outside of the first 10 minutes. Agreed on last night though.

[Bubba Thudd]

Is that Rowdy Roddy Piper?

 

[Pacman33]

Didn't Hammond play some games for the Sens last year and did really well? Why not just give him a start tonight if Varly is tired? Or is Hammond injured too?

Still on injured reserve with a head injury sustained in a fight with ronald mcdonald. At least thats the way i wish it happened. Technically its from a stick to the head while on the bench

 

[Freudian]

Is that Rowdy Roddy Piper?

Indeed. It's from the 80s movie They Live, which is surprisingly entertaining given the talent involved.

Team will win if Z feels fine, team will lose if he doesn't.

Most nights id agree with this logic but its more if varly plays we have a chance, if martin plays we dont

A cult classic. Anyone who hasn't seen it should. Also features the longest and most ridiculous fight scene in cinematic history.

I very much expect Varly to start.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Varly looked tired late last game and I don't blame him. He made 44 saves and he was active in his crease. You sit him tonight against the Preds and play him Sunday. Varly is the one guy who cannot get injured under any circumstance right now and you run that risk if you play him tonight.

 

[avs1dacup]

Expecting a blowout. The Preds are easily cup favorites and the best team in the league. If the Avs can somehow manage to get the game to OT, it'll be a success.

 

[Balthazar]

We'll need something exceptional to win tonight, like a hat trick from Ghetto.

Then you look at their defensive pairings, and go "ah ha, that's why"

Yeah, and who else?

Best fight scene of all time.

This was my halloween costume this year... only 3 people got it...

 

[Foppa2118]

Interesting since they were saying he was MIA down there. I wonder if this this type of stuff will get better once they're in Loveland.

Nothing against the Rampage guys, but it will be awesome having so much coverage of Av prospects next year for the Eagles. There's just more incentive for Avs reporters to cover them there. I'm sure the Avs as an organization will be pumping them up with PR too. Hopefully they bring in a good media department, and put out some good videos.

You need to move.

lol yeah pretty much. Rinne is no slouch either.

 

[UncleRisto]

What about Nasty Nas? Is he in your area about to cause mass hysteria?

(It was from a Nas song. Sorry.)

 

[forsbergavs32]

With Varly...if he didn't look so exhausted last night I'd say play him tonight and let Martin take the Wings but Varly really needs a rest so I hope he sits tonight
