It’s games like this that feel like a Hellboy right hook directly into my testicles. Seasons like this, even.
GDT: Game 52: Blue Jackets @ Avalanche - 7PM - Falling Like the Farenheit
- Thread starter McMetal
- Start date
I'll still fulfill my GDT obligation but otherwise I think I'm done watching for now. If this organization doesn't care...why should I? I mean...they made a MASSIVE investment in goaltending this season and seem fine just in flushing it.

Throw him under the bus, you coward! Torts would've done it and backed over his goalie 15 times by now!
Hes not wrong but he is complicit in all this.
Bednar was seen running out of the building, tearing out his hair, and screaming "I HAVE NO GOALIES!!!!!!"
Honestly shocked that there's more post-game bloodlust for Bednar's head than Grub's.
HE HAD A .861 SV%!
NO coach would've changed that. Not Roy. Not Q.

Some times I think Bednar is just a wax statue that inexplicably came to life and became a hockey coach.

Goes on to talk about an offside situation and not goaltending.

Someone get a hold of @Sea Eagles so I can make sense of all this

Preventable. As in our D cannot prevent the opponent from scoring goals.
With the control Roy had on the Avalanche roster, I don't think he would have tolerated this tandem for this long. He would've 100% made a change by now. But I get what you're saying.

I had high hopes for this season. I guess I’ll bag up the remaining hope and save it for next year.

Bednar putting a lot on himself for the offsides goal. I'm not sure anyone can blame him for attempting that challenge, though.
This team is done, so over this group of losers. How many years of losing does it take to get sick of it?
Clearly the core guys are good with it cause they are quite good at losing.
MacK has checked out, and Rantanen and Landy are showing how crap they are when he isn't carrying them.
Goalies are beyond salvageable.
A perfect example of how little this team cares about winning was summed up by Barrie getting beat down the ice to the empty net when he had a 5 step head start. A team that cares about winning doesn't let that crap happen. They might not win in that scenario, but they aren't going to give up a goal there.
Coach and staff can't fix a thing, point and case the special teams. Haven't adjusted a thing all season, other teams have caught on and adjusted to us and we get killed on special teams every night.
Just a joke, nothing will change until we get players in here that actually want to win. Right now we just watch a bunch of sorry ass losers, lacidasically skating around making junior level errors, collecting fat paychecks.

I wish my hope could be transferred into roll over hope for next season.

That’s hilarious. No one is touching that topic. Not Sakic, not Bednar, not the players, and not Altitude.
One of these days someone is going to lose it and go off. Pretty sure we all know who that’ll be too. The same guy who was screaming after that fourth goal went in.

I do think the message is clear to sakic that he needs to address issues this offseason to put the team forward to the next level. I believe he will follow through with that and at this point next season we will all be happy campers. Let’s just hope we win the lottery though because if we don’t then lord help us all.
They're probably going to deal with it behind closed doors, we all know that Avs are super private when it comes to criticizing indiviudal players and pinpointing people as the problem. You saw McNab again at his best ability to try and avoid saying anything negative about the players by blaming everything on bounces, plays, and whatever.
I am not trying to defend Grubs, the first two just can't go in, but definitely the breakaway and the fifth goals are not his fault. He also didn't get a lot of help when you're tied going in the third and get outshot 19-5. That's unacceptable even if the goaltending was overall weak in this game.

Next season Avs will be ready to make the playoffs consistently. Adding all that young talent and an FA will rejuvenate the 2nd line. Also, a chance to flush out Varly and bring in a fresh starter.
