Post-Game Talk: Colorado Avalanche vs. Los Angeles Kings - Jan. 22, 2013...part 2

Yep, it looked like it could be real bad to me. Hopefully he just tweaked his knee and didn't tear his MCL.

I got to sit by Ralph Backstrom and his wife during the first period. She told us it was the first time he had ever seen the Calder, since the actual trophy didn't exist when he won it. He just received a plaque. But his name is engraved on it now, of course.

That is all. Carry on.

(aaaand ... I like Parenteau and Mitchell a lot, noticed them multiple times. Duchene was flying, and once Landeskog started playing, he was a beast. He was slow starting. EJ tried to make too many perfect passes, many of which were picked off, but otherwise looked good. Varly makes me very very very happy.)

(and Cody McLeod needs to change his number and his name and dye his hair, he is such a marked man by the officials)

[henchman21]

Every time I hear him referred to as PAP I can't help but add smear to the end of it

 

[Unaffiliated]

Just PAP sounds too odd

 

[cgf]

I sometimes just call him smear, at least in my head.

 

[TheRarestDangles]

Huge save

Fans in here were high on Sgarbossa and Mitchell. That's was one sad thread to bump.

Well he's looked pretty decent so far (at least from what I've been able to catch)

 

[CoachBadkitten]

All of us who posted in this thread deserve our name on the cup this year

 

[Vakarte]

Ah the days when Varly would bail out the team left and right.

 

[TheRarestDangles]

Wow this is such a good thread. Thanks for bumping

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

I believe this was the year Jones started drinking on the bench IIRC

 

[Spender]

Is this the season Altitude jumped the shark and Peter McNab did sock puppets between the benches? Shit was wild

 

[TheRarestDangles]

I'll never forget the sick skills of Johnny Malkin

Dude could fold up like a lawn chair when backed into a wall. It was amazing.

 

[MacKaRant]

I want Bo Horvat. No idea what he is like as a player but I like the name.

Would have solved our 2C problem

 

[expatriatedtexan]

Would have solved our 2C problem

I don't know why, but I'm just convinced for some reason that Vancouver will find a way to keep JT Miller, and we find a way to get Horvat signed from them in exchange for Newhook and picks.
