Do you guys think if we have a fake 4 on the scoreboard for the visiting team to start the game, George would get a shutout every night?

I was flying all day and just saw the highlights. Nice assist on the Penguins second goal by Rants, a $13- mil play. JFC!!!

Decided to go to this one on a whim, might be my last one of the regular season. Never in doubt for a second once that Walker goal went in, everything was tilted from that moment on. The best part was, the crowd never seemed to doubt it. I've definitely been to games where you could feel the fans just decide "Yeah, this one's over". Not today though.

Thought exactly the same. Before that, it looked it might be one of those games with no puck luck despite all the effort. But once Walker scored, i knew more goals were on the way. Was awesome. Good on Drouin.
BTW, anyone has issues with the site or its just my computer acting up? Slow page loading, sometimes that cloudflare error...

Jonathan Drouin was the best Avalanche player today.
What a luxury to see this guy nearly realizing his draft potential from a decade ago on a near league minimum deal.
I still believe he signs a big time 5x5 contract this offseason with some lowkey team. Maybe more.

The oil lost a B2B, their fans might be losing containment, thus taking down the site.
He is new TanguayHe's like the anti Kadri. Kadri takes bad shots all game and Mitelstadt passes up prime scoring chances to shoot

So he’s gonna score 2 goals in the cup final game 7 win?
This was MittelJost's worst game so far IMO. Passed up some golden opportunities to shoot the puck for crap pass attempts. Still though, great comeback W. Would love it if the squad could clean some of this shit up though because come back W's are much tougher in the playoffs.

Nate calling Sid the best in the world was completely unsolicited. Nobody asked him about Sid, he just wanted to make it known.
His intensity and fire would never lead you to believe it, but MacK is honestly so humble.
On another note, I loved Duhaime and Trenin in this game. Pro scouting staff knocked it out of the park on targeting those guys.

Our pro scouts are the best in the league.
Wish our amateur scouts were even half as good.
Obviously he is warming up Crosby to join the Avalanche. Either next summer or for the playoffs.Nate calling Sid the best in the world was completely unsolicited. Nobody asked him about Sid, he just wanted to make it known.

Let's face it, it would be amazing.

There are signs that it is getting better. Fingers crossed.
I feel like I've seen those exact words every year I've been a member of these boards, so for over ten years now..
But yeah, fingers crossed.

This is what happens when a team can ice 4 reasonable lines. Certain folks in another thread dedicated to a large antlered mammal seem to think that this team can win cups with 4 stars and zero depth. This team needs a $6M 2C. Now we have one. We finally have a 3rd line when LOC gets back. He is the key to the Roaring 20s. But Trenin / Duhaime / Cogs ( of conceivably Kovalenko is better than anything the Avs have iced in probably a decade. 4 of those 5 deserve / will demand more than league minimum. And, no, CMac can't just pick up perfectly fitting pieces each TDL.Nate calling Sid the best in the world was completely unsolicited. Nobody asked him about Sid, he just wanted to make it known.

If only there was a manner to trade away a single player, yet clear room for Mitts, Drouin ( simply a MUST re-sign) Trenin and Duhaime. Depth wins cups almost always. The last time the team was this deep, Sakic was lacing them up.

Depth is key. Almost as important as your star players.
