I'm saying Avs in 7

Think this is a much closer series then people expect. Avs have the elite talent but no depth due to the injuries. Seattle lacks the elite talent but has pretty solid depth.


So long as Seattle gets decent goaltending I think this one goes 6 or 7 games. But if they dont get decent goaltending the Avs could win in 4 or 5.

Should be easy but it probably won't be because of their style.

 

[The Moops]

I say Avs in 6

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Avs in 5.

We probably clown around for a game or two, they win one, Georgie wins one, we dominate a couple.

Kraken in 7

Kraken in 4

@Northern Avs Fan no poll?

The Avalanche have lost two games in the first round in the last four seasons combined. I can’t see that domination continuing. Seattle has taken it to the Avs this season. With so many players still working off rust I’ve got Seattle winning two games.

Avs in 6 games after going behind 1-2 in the first three games.

 

[John Mandalorian]

I respect Seattle. They're a good team. And losing Landeskog hurts a lot. But a full defense should be ready, right?

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

I’ll say Avs in 6.

Nothing has come easy for this team this year and I don’t expect the playoffs to be any different.

Seattle has better depth, but I don’t think their goaltending will hold up. Star power heavily tiled towards the Avs.

I’d like to see Mikko moved back to the JTC line for this series.

Avs in 4. Mackinnon has flipped the switch. The rest of the passengers are going to take note and start stepping up.

Mackinon with the con smyrhe the this year

You know what they aren't though, is dirty. LA, WPG, and the Mild all can just resort to shit when they get frustrated. Seattle just tries to out work you, physical enough, but we can be too.

It's going to be a battle like Tampa, but without the scoring threat. We still have that threat, and this team lost to that team this year. It will be a good series, but it won't be brutal.

If they put in the work they will win it. That's as far as I'll go with predictions.

Avs suck. Kraken in 4. Grubauer gets 4 shutouts.

Cute of TMV to try and hype this up.

 

[JoeSakic13]

Seattle is a tough squad. Overcame expectations to make it to the playoffs and are ready to fight.

Avs in 3.

 

[BrickNHL]

I see a lot of the Aves aren't as good as last year which is true but even as a die-hard Kuemper fan, Georgiev >>> Kuemper

Lol, yeah it's going to be a chess match. I don't think it will be boring though.

 

[The Kingslayer]

This series is going to be reminiscent of those LA series in the early 2000s. These Kraken work their dicks off and I can see Grubauer playing like the Vezina candidate he is. Should be rather hard. 4-0 Kraken.

Lol, the regular season isn't the playoffs. You win by playing the right way, and having the guys that can take advantage of moments in games.

We'll be fine but they'll be pushed hard. If they fail, they were not up to it this year. For a lot of reasons.

After they beat you in 4:

We got this.
