Post-Game Talk: Colorado vs Buffalo: Re-Entering Earth's Atmosphere

[TheStranger]

Can;t believe Miller has a 2.5 .935SV% with a 1-5-0 record. That shows just how ridiculously bad the team is. Also looks like he's confirmed as starter.

 

[Hesher]

The Avs will win in OT

 

[Avs]

I hope the powerplay goes 14 for 14 tonight. **** Sacco.

 

[5280]

Poor Sacco.

 

[Valanche]

5-1 AVS easily. Duchene has looked great and will score 2 tonight.

 

[JWK]

Go Buffaloes! Oh wait, that's college football.

Go Avs!

Giggy in Pittsburgh right?

Other way around.

Giggy is playing tonight

Sabres fans seem like a funny bunch. They seem like they're going through what Avs fans had to go through the last few years. Watching uninspired play, coaches not utilizing players properly, expecting to lose every game, etc.

For some reason, I'm a little worried about this game. Not because we'll be outplayed, but because I have a sneaking suspicion that Ryan Miller will shut us down.

 

[Nzap]

Other way around.

Oh okay.
Remembered it incorrectly then.

I'm on a twitter-block now as I want to watch the United game later today, so is there any info regarding changes to the line-up?

Funny?

more like pathetic.

I've never seen a more negative group of souls.

Should have stopped by the Avs board the last 3 years.

"Done with this team" in pretty much every post, and then back for the next game to complain about how every player should be traded, the team is garbage, etc.

 

[Freudian]

Buffalo are in ok shape. They have a lot of talent on the way. They could probably need a franchise player type prospect, but they have excellent depth for the future.

 

[UncleRisto]

The 5-forward PP will destroy us.

 

[Gigantor The Goalie]

Buffalo are in ok shape. They have a lot of talent on the way. They could probably need a franchise player type prospect, but they have excellent depth for the future.

They just need to overhaul the coaching staff and get rid of the vets that don't want to stick around for anything that will help in the long run whether it be picks or prospects. Course its never that easy. Seems like their forward corp needs some help. As for goaltending if Miller goes elsewhere then use stopgaps until Enroth can show he's ready or Hackett is ready.

I like their defensive prospects though. Lots of talent there that can help sustain the organization until they get a highly talented forward.

 

[Foppa Frossa]

Here are the lines, pairings and goalie for the Avs tonight:
Landeskog-Stastny-Tanguay
O’Reilly-Duchene-Downie
McGinn-MacKinnon-Parenteau
Cliche-Mitchell-Bordeleau

D
Johnson-Hejda
Wilson-Guenin
Benoit-Sarich

JSG
Varly

Seems like no changes to lineup other than Cliche in for McLeod.

The Curse of The Sacco strikes again....

 

[The Kingslayer]

Sabres win tonight and this place craters. BTW, what time does the game start?

 

[Foppa Frossa]

sabres win tonight and this place craters. Btw, what time does the game start?

5pm mst

 

[the_fan]

A losing streak can very well happen. If Avs lose today, next game is in Pittsburgh and Avs seem to always lose to Pens.

Today's game is very important.

Must win

 

[5280]

Wow, Barrie got in Roy's dog house fast.

 

[Avs71]

I was really hoping Barrie would be in.

 

[NothingLikeAnEJ]

First goal is huge in this one. Expecting a big game from Dutchy and ROR.

 

[Nzap]

Strange that Roy hasn't seen Wilson and Guenin really struggling together.

And Holden must be getting a bit frustrated as a healthy scratch.
