Pre-Game Talk: Week 5: New Jersey, Seattle, and Saint Louis. In this home we stand. So PANIC!

[sethro109]

Tuesday November 7th, we get the Jack Hughesless New Jersey Devils.

Thursday November 9th, we get the Kraken.

Saturday November 11th, we get the St Louis Blues.

All at home. One team lost their best player and the other two have been struggling. We better get a few wins here and right some f****ing ships, because last game was a goddamn joke.

3-0.

 

[ASmileyFace]

3-0 is the only acceptable week. Anything less after that travesty in Vegas would be a bad sign. Gotta respond and respond strong

 

[Mighty Makar]

1-2.

 

[Metallo]

They gotta be ready and angry against NJD. One game at a time boys!

 

[dahrougem2]

1-2-0

Flat loss to NJ, bad loss to Seattle, underwhelming win vs St. Louis.

 

[GeoRox89]

0-3 after we finally send Makar to the surgeon and Mack gets beat up by the scarecrow trying to retrieve his brain

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

Days after bad losses are always rough around here.

3-0 this week. The boys will start stringing together good habits and building chemistry more. This is a good time to face 3 beatable teams - an opportunity to go on a run, and after a loss where everything was bad, a way to pick up their heads and build confidence.

Just happy to finally get some games every other day. This start to the schedule has been bullshit

 

[Freudian]

It's a long season and Avs have a lot of new players. Things will improve.

Still a warty team of course. Often in life you get what you pay for.

Hopefully it will help them get into more of a rhythm as a team. Weird ass schedule to start the year.

0-3. Life sucks.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

They should go 3-0 here quite frankly. New Jersey without Hughes are a weaker team, Seattle is a weaker team, and the Blues are bad.


But given the effort levels so far and inability to score all throughout the lineup it really wouldn't be surprising to see them go like 1-2-0 or 1-1-1 or something this week.

 

[cccoltsicehockey]

0-3. Keep the shit out streak going.

What's this about shit streaks?

 

[McJedi]

I don’t really care. I’d just like to see some former good Avs players like D Toews, Nuke, Geo and RyJo make some plays and stop sucking so much.

 

[UncleRisto]

I don’t really care. I’d just like to see some former good Avs players like D Toews, Nuke, Geo and RyJo make some plays and stop sucking so much.

I'll take MacKinnon, Rantanen, and Makar not sucking.

 

[Muffin]

Caught a huge break with Hughes not being in on Tuesday. Need to capitalize on it.

 

[The Abusement Park]

I don’t really care. I’d just like to see some former good Avs players like D Toews, Nuke, Geo and RyJo make some plays and stop sucking so much.

I mean RyJo sucking isn't necessarily a surprise tbf.

 

[The Kingslayer]

1-1-1

 

[Metallo]

Still a warty team of course. Often in life you get what you pay for.

Referencing Nuke's hoes is uncalled for.

 

[McJedi]

I'll take MacKinnon, Rantanen, and Makar not sucking.

or at least playing better. Sure.

Toews kinda sucks right now. its a little concerning if I’m being honest.

 

[dahrougem2]

Sit Makar for the entire week. Actually, sit him until he is 100% healthy.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Sit Makar for the entire week. Actually, sit him until he is 100% healthy.

So you think he should just retire?
