As per Bednar, regarding Makar “we will see” and he’s a game-time decision.

You can bet with almost full certainty that a Makar game-time decision means he isn’t playing.

A team on a long losing streak vs the avs. Absolutely nothing can go wrong here.

I actually think he will play tonight. He took the drills on PP1 today in practice. That usually indicates when he does or does not play.

 

[Metallo]

Avs stubborn on not calling up another F while we play 11-7 with Dermy up front. Great.

Edit: Nevermind, we got Olofsson and Kivi in our back pocket for tonight. I guess nhl.com projected lineup is way off.

Epic GDT

Epic ass whooping incoming

 

[The Kingslayer]

5-1 Sens.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

4-2, Sens

 

[AllAboutAvs]

Over/under George making the first 9.5 saves? I say under.

 

[The Moops]

If we score more than 2 and lose by less than 5 I'll say it's a win

 

[AvsMakar08]

Byram is trying to grow Landy's beard. What a coincidence.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Over/under George making the first 9.5 saves? I say under.

I'll take the under on that.

Over/Under 3.5 goals against?

 

[AllAboutAvs]

I'll take the under on that.

Over/Under 3.5 goals against?

I'd say under. I think after CHI game they will tighten up but only after George lets one of the first 9 shots in.

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Threw $50 on the same game parlay for this one. So I don't give a f*** who wins I just need like a 8-7 game here.

 

[the_fan]

Avs are good at breaking losing steaks for other teams just like any player who hasn’t scored for 200 games breaks out of slump against the Avs. Sens on 5 game losing streak means auto loss for the Avs

New coach bump too.

Avs need to go 4-1 to meet my expectation for Jan 1. Given how they play the Coyotes... must win.

They dont seem to play the Sens much better regardless of the season. Dont know what thats all about. Was it Brady in OT last season?

This has 5-1 Sens written all over it.

I want to believe the team will respond positively to Toews calling them out and Bednar agreeing with him. 4-2 Avs will be my guess.

 

[AvsFan29]

Someone needs to take control of this team goddammit

 

[missionAvs]

I think they'll respond positively. They'll respond with a 5-1 L. Tank for Bedard.
