[m0ngr31]

Let's start talking about coming back down to earth. Has to happen soon. The season is almost over...

Look for me behind the Avs bench in my Sakic Nordiques jersey

The Nucks knocked McDonagh out of the game yesterday so don't know if he'll play.

We are due for a loss but the boys should get some revenge for their poor showing in NY. I expect this one to be close either way.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Mcdonagh looked in bad shape after that hit.

 

[freeboy]

We need a big win... for no other reason than to score and remind ourselves we are just that close

 

[JWK]

Is it too late to trade overrated O'Reilly to NY for MDZ?

 

[Avs]

I just want Varly to have a good game so Roy starts him Saturday since he's on a roll.

I've waited all season for Saturday's game, and I'll be so pissed if I get there and Giguere is starting.

Got tix to this one, in the first row! (of section 322 :/ )
Should be fun, cant believe its the second to last home game.

There's at least 4 more home games.


Also lets never utter the word Aves again.

Agreed, the joke's getting old.

Spell it wrong in the title, spell it right in the post...

In Roy's radio interview today he said they're going to try a lot of different things before the playoffs. The only thing he doesn't want to touch is the Landeskog-Stastny combo.

He said they're going to leave the option of moving O'Reilly back to center open. He would like to possibly try a line of McGinn-O'Reilly-PAP once PAP is back, which could happen in one of the final three games. He also said he likes Landeskog-Stastny-MacKinnon but they could try O'Reilly at RW on that line as well.

Staz-Landy-Mack is a cool line because the numbers are all 2, 6, or upside-down 6

Landeskog-Stastny-O'Reilly would be disgusting.

 

[Avs_19]

Landeskog-Stastny-O'Reilly would be disgusting.

It really would. Roy threw them out there together for a shift or two against the Sharks when the faceoff was in the defensive zone. Maybe he'll do that again in the playoffs when defending a lead late in the game.

The biggest downside would be that a line of McGinn-MacKinnon-PAP would be, to put it nicely, not very good defensively.

"You can do whatever you want but if you dont work hard, success wont be your partner"

Might be my favorite quote from him this year.

 

[Avalanche]

Staz-Landy-Mack is a cool line because the numbers are all 2, 6, or upside-down 6

Nothing beats the 92929 Line from earlier this year

 

[Kale Makar]

Exactly my thoughts. Greatest line evar.

 

[Nihiliste]

Landeskog-Stastny-O'Reilly would be disgusting.

I'd love to be able to roll that line out in times of need.

 

[freeboy]

I missed the joke about " aves"
My pm me if it's not appropriate.
I was thinking the :"(h) aves and the have nots"
Go Colorado snowsliding crushing force nhl team! Lol

 

[Joe Sakic]

I would like to see:

Landeskog - Stastny - O'Reilly
McGinn - MacKinnon - Mitchell
McLeod - Talbot - Malone
Bordeleau - Cliche - Carey

I just use it because that's what everyone on the main board calls the Avs

As much as I want to see MacK center a line, I don't know if you want to disrupt the 92-26-29 Roy went back to in the 3rd period of Columbus.

 

[Pokecheque]

Not really.
