Injury Report: 2018-19 Avs Injury Thread

[Foppa Frossa]

Also didn't like how Timmins followed "not cleared yet" with "got a ways to go"

Have you not seen those Hollywood movies where unskilled nobodies become superstars because of a surgery gone horribly right?

 

[Bubba Thudd]

Which one is that? Asking for a friend..

I think we can safely pencil in Cole as a marginal 6th defenseman-level player until at least the end of the season. That's not even all that horrible, because we need playoff Cole more than we need regular season Cole. But the fact is players who miss offseason training, training camp, and the beginning of the season - they tend to have terrible years overall.

I wonder if they tried to re-sign Nemeth for another year to cope, but he was asking for a raise/wanted more years, hence the return on the Carl deal. Maybe they could've gotten a 2nd, but downgraded the pick to pickup a serviceable LD, since Barbario's corpse has been useless.

 

[Ceremony]

I'd keep Nemeth before playing Barberio or thinking Timmins will ever play in the NHL. Especially if we'll be missing Cole and Johnson. I'm sure he'd be easy enough to trade if necessary.

It’s amazing how banged up we were after the end of the season. Everyone was talking about how banged up the Sharks were, but we really were just as banged up.

No. Nemeth has served his purpose. And much like Blake Comeau the year before, it's time to move on. Even if Barbs can't do it, Graves should be just fine in a third pairing role. Nemo should be looking to land as much financial security as possible, and that should be with another team.

That.. And I'm looking forward to getting rid of the last one of our D who think "Ice it" as their first thought immediately when being pressured.

That is one thing I liked about Graves.. He actually had the mobility to skate it out when he needed to, but also had a legit first pass. I'm so sick of seeing these bottom pairing guys ice the puck constantly. Especially when we can't win FOs.

Boy, it'll be nice to have six actual, legit defensemen on the blueline once everyone is frickin' healthy. No more interim, quick-fix guys or waiver-wire pickups.

Yeah.. I mean we legit had to healthy scratch Nemeth in the playoffs. That was a very satisfying moment, and I don't say that because I hate Nemeth.

Watch them actually trade Barrie now..

Precisely, I was pleasantly surprised as well. And largely that's because Nemo had IMO a very solid year.

And I GUARANTEE Mike Babcock would've played Makar sparingly and fed major minutes to Nemo. Give Jared Bednar credit for that.

I also give Bednar a lot of credit for how he coaches the team in the playoffs. It is a bit weird because I feel like he does dumb shit and does not correct the game plan going into the second period during the regular season. Since he has been here you can almost set your watch to us getting stomped in the second period. Especially if we have a lead. That isn't even getting into some of his lineup choices.

Then comes the playoffs and we are competitive and even ended up beating top teams in a 7 game series.

I hate giving Bednar credit..

Yep, I know you do.

The too-many-men penalties and overtime shit-show had better be fixed next year, not to mention the penalty problem. With added depth (hopefully) the latter issue should go away a bit. I kinda saw them finally wake the hell up when it came to OT near the end of the season at least.

I want Bednar gone all year, and then the playoffs happen. Bednar is the Wilson of coaches..

I haven't really mentioned it much until now, but that shit really does have me twisted up when it comes to my opinion on him. f***

 

[Bubba Thudd]

Are there stats somewhere to show how Bednar compares to other coaches, when it comes to Too Many Men penalties?

You know who I blame more for that sometimes? MacK and Mikko's lazy ass line changes.
