GDT: Game #4 Colorada in Vegas. Puck drop ~ 6:40pm MT. Avs Board is with the Boys tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Grigowski]

Headline for Game 4:

Return of the Mac.....

 

[The Moops]

I made the cut!

 

[Garavar]

Can they figure out a way to not play like total shit the whole game?

 

[5280]

This is going to be a great game. Go Avs Go!

 

[RockLobster]

Obvious want them to win, but at the very least they need to come out and not play like total shit…especially after the meetings they had yesterday

 

[Avs_19]

Your turn, Nate.

Awesome thread, @Ginger Papa!

 

[RockLobster]

So Reaves is eligible to come back tonight. I wonder if DeBoer has noticed that his 4th line had looked better (relative to 4th lines) without him?

First time in a while that the Avs are big underdogs with the odds makers. Maybe that’s a good thing

I sure don't see it as a good thing at all.

We better hope they are wrong and the Avs won't look like game 2 and game 3 tonight because if they do we are losing in the 2nd round again this year.

?

Avs are -105 and Vegas is -115.

 

[armedequation]

just want to see better execution and puck control....think that will lead to a win

curious to see how the players react to what bednar said

hopefully we will see an avalanche comin down the mountain!

 

[Azrael89]

This might not be a popular opinion, but if the Avs go out in the second round again, I think Bednar needs to be replaced. I’m not sure who would be an ideal replacement, but I consider another second round exit stagnation.

My bad...., read it wrong I guess. So this means we’re back to favorites!

You were right about them being underdogs but it’s basically a pick em.

 

[Anders Cain]

C'mon boys. Need a big effort

 

[armedequation]

I made the cut!

i didnt....guess its back to the grizzlies for me...

 

[The Kingslayer]

Series has always been a pick'em. Tonight is a pick'em. Tonight is actually the turning point of this series imo. Win this you looking good going home. Lose AND play the way you have the last 2 games its likely curtains.

 

[lonelybadger]

Should know within the first 5 shifts who's going to win this one.

 

[AvBuff]

Avs need to go full on "Casino" Pesci in Vegas tonight.

 

[Balthazar]

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

I sure don't see it as a good thing at all.

We better hope they are wrong and the Avs won't look like game 2 and game 3 tonight because if they do we are losing in the 2nd round again this year.

Oh look, it's Balth continuing his negativity again and again.


Imagine if the Avs had the same thoughts as you. Good lord.

 

[The Kingslayer]

This might not be a popular opinion, but if the Avs go out in the second round again, I think Bednar needs to be replaced. I’m not sure who would be an ideal replacement, but I consider another second round exit stagnation.

Normally I would agree BUT you have to take into account that the Avs reward for winning the Presidents trophy was a meeting with a team with the exact amount of points in the second round. If the Avs lost to say a Montreal or Jets team or whatever team they would have been playing on a normal year then I would agree.

 

[Avs71]

Vegas is 5-5 this year in the post season. Let’s not act like they’re some Juggernaut who is waking up. The Avs have been the sleeping giants in the series, and I think Vegas is going to find that out tonight.

This sounds like people that say you know I don't really like my job, I think I'll just quit tomorrow and find something else later. Two years later they finally got another job and they hate it even more than the last one.

 

[lonelybadger]

If McNabb and Reaves come back that should help the Avs sustain more zone time.
