GDT: Emergency Game Day Thread! Game 3 of round 2 vs the Blues. Series tied 1-1. 6:00PM MST

[El Travo]

Here we go!

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Really do think Newhook for NAK could have been a good change.

 

[Ararana]

You’ve got to stop letting @The Kingslayer use your account, Pierce.

I was going to say. I had to double check kingslayer didn't steal Pierce's avatar image there.

Avs will be fine. Get one on the road in game 3 or 4 and win your home games. I still think they win in 6.

No Newhook is a bit annoying.

 

[AllAboutAvs]

With all the rebounds Shittington gives up I hope the Avs shoot low into his pads to force rebounds and go to the net to pounce on them.

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

Don’t really understand why Bednar likes Nichushkin on the top line. Is it not evident that him and Rantanen have negative chemistry?

I dont think that's true. I think Rantanen is just f***ing shit right now more than anything.

It doesn't have anything to do with chemistry. It has to do with Mikko taking his head out of his ass.

 

[Elbombatzo]

Hope for a strong Game. 4-3 avs

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

Yeah, that’s definitely part of it, but it feels like his downward trajectory quickened when Nichushkin replaced Landeksog on that line.

 

[missionAvs]

Let's squeek out this W and re-gain home ice boyos. 5-1 Blues to continue the gentleman's sweep.

 

[MonsterMack]

What a great time for my internet to be dead

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Still think I'd go

[SirLoinOfCloth]

GOE AVES!

 

[Shinjuku Calling]

imagine if games started on time

Yeah

 

[Vaslof]

Let's see how late they can push the puck drop

 

[NOTENOUGHJTCGOALS]

If I was a betting person I would bet against the Avs winning another game this series.

But at least show some fight. Play physical, drive to the net, make these difficult wins for St Louis.

Don't be a team that opponents want to draw in the playoffs. Otherwise the Avs aren't any better than Nashville. Just a slight speed bump to be run over.

 

[Foppa2118]

I tune into TNT and hear them talking about just how special a guy is with his cross overs, with how he surveys the whole ice, and how as soon as he gets double teamed he just makes a play to get out of it, and what a treat it is to watch him, and I think, "wow they've finally realized just how truly special Makar is. Must be because the Avs are the only game tonight."

Then I realize they're talking about McDavid, and they've been talking about the Oilers the entire pre game for the Avs. They just don't give a shit about Colorado.

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

6:15 faceoff. Cool. So we can hear that knobhead Bisonnette fawn over of the Blues some more. Excellent.

 

[5280]

Let’s see how we respond. We haven’t had any adversity in a while.

Yup easiest money you can make is betting on Blues the next 3 games.

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

If you watched Sportsnet, you’d think the Avs were down 3-0 in this series.

 

[missionAvs]

Man I just don't feel good about it. Nervous as all hell.

 

[Peter Peckerwood]

I'll be happy if they can:
Stay on their skates
Put passes on the tape
Moose gets off his lazy ass
Nate quits trying stupid sh#$
Cale wakes up
We get secondary scoring
Quit running around like chickens with their heads cut off

 

[The Kingslayer]

Man I just don't feel good about it. Nervous as all hell.

Try to enjoy it man. Its a long offseason.
