Kulemen, Gunnerson, Reilly.

We only have Statsny that people often get wrong.

I don't know about, seems like a lot of people misspell O'Reilly's name a lot, some spell his name O'money for some reason... :sarcasm:

I have a tutorial at school during the start of the game. And they take attendance for marks, so I can't even skip it. Gonna have to listen to Moser during the tutorial I guess.

I <3 Jay McClement.

Seriously, if we had McClement as a 4th C, our lines would be so ridiculously balanced and the PK would have all the necessary players.

Such a shame he wanted to be in Toronto.

I hope we blow the Leafs out as well....but come on guys. Lets not get ahead of ourselves here. Our defense looked bad in the first few games and Varly really bailed us out. Don't get cocky, because it will more than likely all come tumbling down soon. This kind of start happened in 2 of Sacco's seasons as well. Don't you remember the "Are the Avalanche for real?" threads. Well in March they became a "What happened?" thread.

Regardless, lets make Phaneuf look like the mistake magnet he is and lets beat the Leafs.
Game 1, I would agree. I thought the defense played well last game.

I think that's more a product of Nashville's offense lacking. Although I agree the D didn't look too shabby
Yeah, they don't have a ton of firepower, but they create chances other ways, particularly on the cycle, and I thought the Avs did a great job limiting them. I don't recall them having a ton of great scoring chances.

Just read through the Leafs pre-game thread. We're ****ed guys.
-We have 1 second pairing defenceman, and a bunch of bottom pairing defencemen.
-No one who can stop Kessel and Lupul.
-All the Avs forward have been outscored by the Leafs forwards over the last three years.
-Bernier is an absolute brickwall.
-Our coach is a *****.
-Downie will turtle like he always does.

Avs are worse in every aspect of the game. I think we'll be shutting our arrogant mouths after being humuliated 8-0.

Also don't forget Orr will fight Bordeleau, McLeod and Roy at the same time, killing them. Bettman will be so moved he will award the Stanley Cup to the Maple Leafs on the spot where Orr will drink their blood from its chalice. Immediately after the game O'Reilly, Duchene, and MacKinnon will demand trades to the Leafs and start a hunger strike until they get it.

Go Avs for this one! Can't wait until Thursday when they meet up with Boston. We have to wait from last Saturday against Detroit until Thursday for Hockey again when we play you guys. :(

Why are we picking fights with Leafs fans in this thread? I get that there were a lot of trade proposals (which is the worst forum on HF anyways), but come on. Last time we played these guys the Leafs fans coming over to comment were very classy and reasonable. The fan vs fan stuff in here is stupid.

Going to be in town to go to this game so I'm excited. Hoping for another solid game from the boys.
