I think it’s time to sacrifice a mod to guarantee a victory! Alright, who wants to volunteer!

Me!

Why does Biega not get in ahead of those last two clowns?

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Granlund a scratch?

 

[timbermen]

It Could be Goldobins last chance with the Canucks, i think he'll have a good game. That line had great chemistry earlier. If the Canucks can shut down Colorado's top line like they did with Mcdavid's line, they should win. That's where the Beagle and Rousell signings are under rated. They do the things that you don't always notice, the things that Goldobin wasn't doing that got him scratched.

Yeah! We're back! Thanks, Zombo!

Looking forward to the game, and hoping we get one as entertaining as that 7-6 win a few months back.

Anyone from CDC.

Granlund is finally scratched. Thank god

That call always make me shake my head. On the other hand, the forward lines look about as good as can be expected, given the guys we have.

I think a healthy and rested Canucks take this one...

4-3

Pettersson
Sutter
Leivo
Stecher

Granlund is finally scratched. Thank god

Yeah but we have the Guddy and Poo pair on D...could be a long night.
Does Travis really not understand that they are the worst combo in hockey or are we just going to watch Goldy all night to make sure he is mistake free.

 

[NoShowWilly]

Finally!

 

[Star Ocean]

Goldy back with EP?

1st game after a break..prepare for a veryyy sloppy game!

The boys will be sucking wind too w. The game being in the mile high city.

Virtanen and Hutton gonna be sweating out those tequialla shots they had all week at Cabo.

5-2 AVS

Theyre allowed to drink alcohol? No team policy?

 

[Fire Benning]

First game after 9 days off and playing above sea level, gonna be interesting.

Might get lucky by playing a garbage team, who is also playing their first game after 9 days off.

 

[ErrantShepherd]

Goldy back with EP?

It's about goddamn time. Do or die for Goldy. Hope he lights it up!

I like Leivo and Baertschi with Horvat too, hopefully they get some good chemistry going.

...and by god do we need to replace GudPou.

 

[petrishriekandgo]

Biggest question for me is can Markstrom find his December groove again... if not it may be Demko time in Vancouver. Granted, what goalie could put up numbers with Gudbranson/Pouliot in front of them?

Still waiting for the Virtanen-Horvat-Leivo line to be put together as well.

i tend to agree with this. Especially all the beach boys having to play at altitude

 

[TruGr1t]

Wow they finally managed to scratch our two worst forwards in the same game. Good job ... only took over 60% of the season to figure that one out. Now they just need to get Biega in there over one of Gudbranson or Pouliot and you'll legitimately be icing the best players versus the salary club.

 

[topched88]

Granny has to be sick or hurt or something.

 

[NoShowWilly]

Sounds like the avalanche are splitting up the only good thing they have going right now.

 

[DownGoesMcDavid]

AVS have Landeskog mckinnon rantanen makar plus a probably top 5 pick and a top 20 pick this yr.

Damn. Looking good in Colorado

4 more years of Mackinnon at 6.3m. Got to think they go all in next 2-3 years.

What’s shocking is how every person watching these games see the same stuff. Including reporters.

How bad Guddy and Pouliot have been lately, yet they keep getting put out game after game.

Sutter is quickly moving into that category as well. What makes Sutter so hard to watch is knowing that Gaudette can do his job and more.
