[BB79]

Let's go Avs!

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

No, let's go Jets!

 

[MessierII]

Will be tuning in to this one

 

[Peasy]

Great GDT!

 

[bobholly39]

Last game Jets won 7-6. Cool. But Jets have two problems to deal with:

1. They won't continue to average 7 goals a game.

2. Avalanche will continue to average 6 goals a game.

Colorado in 5.

 

[Mad Dog Tannen]

Go jets go!

The positives after that wild game - Jets didn’t play their game and still won. They need to get back to their defensive game.

Not sure what the Colorado game plan is ….more offense?

Regardless, am expecting a more buttoned down playoff style game with a core of 3-2, maybe 4-2 with an EN. Jets win obvs….

Looking forward to the whiteout crowd again!

 

[josra33]

Over/Under 5.5 Goals in 1st Period?

 

[syz]

1-0 Avs. Triple OT.

For Colorado, try a different goaltender? Did Georgiev just have a bad game? Perhaps he will be better.

 

[Royale With Cheese]

19-18 Jets in OT.

Every Jets player gets a goal, including Hellebuyck with the OT winner on a breakaway.

 

[Grigowski]

For Colorado, try a different goaltender?

There is no other available, because our backup (and probably starter in Game 1) became sick at the worst possible time.

They called up Prosvetov to back-up Georgiev. Yup, you heard it. Georgiev is, or at least it looks like it, the starter tonight.

I can see the smiles from the Jets-Players and Fanbase from a mile.

 

[Grigowski]

1. They won't continue to average 7 goals a game.

With Georgie in net, i wouldnt rule that out......

No, seriously:

I dont expect a wild game tonight with crazy scoring. It all depends on Georgiev being able to bounce back or at least give his team enough help.

I´ll go 5-3 (dont ask me why, just a feeling), Avs-Win and Georgie holding the fort just good enough (i mean, even a blind chicken sometimes finds a grain )

The Avs score so much it may not matter. Great team. But… yeah, having a huge question mark in net is not good.

 

[Kerberos]

MacKinnon will play goal in this one, promise a cheat day for everyone and the Avs will win 3-0. MacK with the 40 save shutout.

You keep emphasizing this because the Avs didn’t trade for Allen? It kind of seems that way.

 

[Summer Rose]

This GDT reminds me of trying to talk to my dad about hockey, who's not even a hockey fan. I laughed quite a bit reading through it. Well done!

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

No. Allen is a bit of a wildcard as well.

I think they should’ve gotten at least a solid starter.

 

[Ararana]

After a shootout game 1, I bet this is the most boring game tonight. 3-1 Jets, including an empty netter.

 

[Avsfan1921]

More goaltending….

 

[Ararana]

Best news of the day for Winnipeg

 

[BoxOfChocolates]

About to be another game wasted with Georgiev. Offseason can't come soon enough

 

[Mad Dog Tannen]

More goaltending….

More of the same please!

 

[TheDeuce]

More goaltending….

"More" implies that there was "some" in game one.

Bodog has the Avalanche as the favourite tonight, paying -122 to the Jets +102. I would have thought it would have been more of a coin flip.

I have a feeling the Avs win a squeaker tonight.

I also don’t think there will be lead changes. So low scoring and steady IMO.

If Avs score first 3-2 avs, vice versa for if jets score first.

Of course - the wild card is Georgiev.

7-2 jets won’t surprise me. 7-2 Avs feels next to impossible to me after last game.

You never know though!

Should be fun atmosphere regardless!
