Someone should photoshop those eyes on an Owl

Is this real life?

Is this real life?

Is this just fantasy

What a series!! A month ago we were talking about the tank and we just eliminated the #1 seed in the West! So proud of this group! Most fun I’ve had watching hockey in years, AVS ARE A WAGON!

Is this just fantasy

Caught in a landslide

EDIT: Damn it @MarkT

 

[Ararana]

Caught in a landslide

No escape from reality

 

[ASmileyFace]

What a f***ing series. What a f***ing season. AND WE ARE STILL IN IT. I can hardly believe it. I'm not sure what to do with my hands

I guess that's one perk of turning 30. I can now gripe about kids with their phones out at live events while actually feeling my own age

 

[klozge]

Lol yah. I've been trying to find a clip of the penalty, but haven't had any luck. It looked like embellishment to me.

I watched it again. It was embellishment. All's fine.

 

[Spleenless Wonder21]

Surprised he didn't dive in the handshake line

One of the most embaressing instances of embellishment I've ever seen. Ridiculous lol

 

[Alex Jones]

Mackinnon-Kerfoot play surprisingly well together

 

[Porkleaker]

Just wanted to stop in and say amazing series, so happy you guys won! Keep it up, will be cheering for you the whole way.

 

[Ryan Pat80]

Agree 100%. Outcoached.

And I like my crow well done, served with Hollandaise sauce. I was not on the Bednar bandwagon. Am now. Home delivery of crow?

Never knew just how much success Bednar has had coaching at every single level. I too wasn't sold on him, but he's making one hell of a case.

When I see the Giordano post game interview on Mac all I can think about is this..

 

[Metallo]

Everyone wanted documented evidence to one day say: « See, I was there when JohnyHockey choked. »

Zadorov ending Ratboy in game 2 was as big of a moment as there was. Pretty much everyone from our team came out to play, almost impossible to single out anyone even Mack. Gabe was a beast, as was Mikko, and Ty, and LBN, and Grubby, and Cole, and Cale .......

Open your eyes, look up to the skies and SEEEEEEEE

I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy

Ghetto was meh and Brassard sucked imo. Also, I didn't like Cole's back to back OT penalties at all. Everybody else (and Cole most of the time) was brilliant. MacKinnon might really be the best player on this planet when he enters beast mode but you're right, it was a complete team effort.

Makar will have some time to practice with the team until the next game and we should have Girard, who might have been our best dman in game 2, back then. Avs are scary now.

It's becoming clear you guys are primed for a dynasty. Getting this win and whatever else comes in the playoffs, followed by a top 4 OA pick for your 2nd line C? Oh and another 1st rounder. And that defense?

Disgusting. Enjoy it

Thousands of things have to go right for that. You already need a lot of luck to win the Cup once. I obviously hope you're right but I think it's better to just enjoy the journey this team is taking us on. It's been crazy since Sakic has taken over, though. Good times to be an Avs fan.
