Series Talk: Colorado Avalanche vs San Jose Sharks (P2 vs WC2)

[Phalanx]

I appreciate your honesty, and in that same spirit, I will be honest and admit that I will likely despise every single one of you in a week’s time.

Have a good day.

It is known.

I said it in our boards and I'll say it here for your benefit. After playing such a nasty series full of vitriol slung back and forth, I'm looking forward to a (hopefully) sportsmanlike series against you all. I'll never have a bad word to say about the Avs fanbase, not after the experience my Dad and I had going to a game in Denver. Good luck to you all! It should be a good one!

I'm a Colorado transplant and Santa Cruz and the Sharks fans at every game we've been to this year have been all class as well!

Be afraid, San Jose, be very afraid.

I haven’t watched enough of Thornton recently to know for sure, but he looked slow and on his last legs last night.

On top of that, the sharks really only have 3 lines and 2 defensive pairings. I’m hoping that our speed and fresh legs are able to carry us through.

Don't underrate Thornton. For sure he has lost a step, but he is still quite dangerous. Huge reach, strong as a horse and very savvy. Can hang on to puck until something presents itself. He was great down the stretch in regular season. His third line with Sorenson and Labanc could make the difference in the series.

I miss that area. It's so flat out here in Chicago & there's so much beauty all around the bay.

Haven't lost a game with Makar in the lineup. Don't see a reason to start now.

Yeah am I the only person who thinks Karlsson looks unbelievably good?

All I hear is how he looks hurt and he has slowed down and has been on the ice for a bunch of goals against etc. The games I watched (2.5 games total maybe) he was the best player on the ice for both teams and it wasn’t even really close. He looks near 2017 playoff form IMO and I’m not looking forward to playing against him.

He had a rough start to the series but he sure is dangerous still. If bad, injured Karlsson put up 9 points in round one what will he do if he gets healthy?

Let's hope this series doesn't last long enough for us to find out!

I’m picking the Avs in 6, I don’t think the Sharks D is very good defensively and the way you guys handled Calgary makes me think there’s more to come. Go Avs!

There is beauty all over the place except for my empty wallet

Your photoshops will be better than @UncleRisto any day now.

I highly doubt that. It's fun to "work" with Gimp, though. After years with paint.net I'm enjoying Gimp tremendously.

Here's an update of that last pic. Should scare the crap out of Sharks fans now.

Classic Avs, taking a too many men penalty for no good reason...

 

[JLo217]

Any Avs fans in the bay area going?

I'm looking at game 2!

 

[lonelybadger]

Do you know who would be helpful in this series? Kamenev. I have not and will not spell his name right because it is confuses me though.

Yeah I remember realizing that the rent in f***ing mountain view was more than downtown Chicago, good times.

I've been spending a lot of time in Tracy, CA for work the past year, but I don't think my schedule will align for any games in San Jose. I do have tickets to all the games in Denver though.

I'm unsure how I feel about it

Nieto looks like if United Nations interpreters only talked about Spider-Man comics the whole time.

You live in Santa Cruz?! I'm in Aptos. Small world we live in.

Yeah the area. Ben Lomond more specifically. I miss the skiing, thank goodness for the mountain biking and the discounts involved.
