GDT: CHI @ COL: Deadline Week, Emotions Running High - Emphasis on "EMO" (9PM ET)

[RoyIsALegend]

He only comes out for 1st stars.

Yeah and looks completely depressed answering the 3 basic questions.

Pretty sure they avoid naming him 1st star at all costs now.

 

[AVSfan2daMAX]

It may be the Blackhawks, but that's a 37 save shutout and he made some big saves.

No question in my mind, Chicago has at least 3 goals tonight against Georgiev.

We're squeaking out a 6-4 win with a Mikko ENG if Fourgiev's in tonight.

Let's be honest.

Chicago is super poor team. Team probably tries harder to play front of Annu though.

I would agree with this assessment. However, I think Annunen has earned a harder look and a chance to earn a "1B" type of goalie tag where he could get games in the playoffs too. Time will tell.

 

[Markster]

My wife just pronounced Annunen "more baby faced than Makar".

 

[AvBuff]

What I love is that Justus' face is so fat that his equipment looks like it was appropriately sized. But when you see him in street clothes the dude is skinny.

Three Stars:

3. Makar
2. Ain't Nobody Got Time For That
1. Annunen

 

[The Kingslayer]

Justus certainly earned this one. I would look to give him some more starts to be honest against better competition. Whats the big deal if he gives up 4+ goals when they other guy does that 70% of his starts.

MacK interviewed - was trying to give Annunen a compliment and noted, "...I know its Chicago but..." lolz

He looks Iike Dr Seuss drew him and then he came to life.

The low key disrespect haha

Annunen needs another start on Wednesday against the Dead Things.

Another big performance and CNap has a lot to think about for Friday on whether we really need to acquire another goalie.

He’s anti social. If I was a betting man I’d say he could possibly have Asperger’s.

We do. Send Georgiev out.

 

[JLo217]

Mack is better than Makar and McDavid right now. He's the best player on the planet.

I really don't want to be heartbroken but I'm getting really excited that we might have a goalie that the Avs developed into an NHL player.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Couldn't watch this one, working a bunch of OT Monday-Wednesday this week to get Friday off...

But, is Annunen our starter now?

 

[McMetal]

I have been very pessimistic about Annunen for a while now, but that's three legit good performances from him in a row now. It will be interesting to see what happens when teams get some real tape on him and try to pick a part any weaknesses.

He looked really, REALLY good. But the Dmen did do a great job with not allowing cross ice chances. I hope they give him a start vs a tougher club soon.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

Nate doesn't do interviews because these freaking games already start damn near his bedtime.
