GDT: Game 67: Avs vs Wings | 7 PM MT | March 5, 2019 | Remembering Legends of the Rivalry

[21]

Right now...yes. But I haven't forgotten the first few months of Cole's tenure here. He was quite good. The problem is he's an upgrade on Nemeth but not a top-4 dman.

This big question is: Is Cole an upgrade to Nemeth on PK, this is debatable (in other parts of the game he usually is though).

 

[klozge]

Not happy with the way the Avs played half the game but very happy with the result.

 

[klozge]

I really can't stand Moser.

He seriously seems to get worse with each game. Such a disappointment.

 

[21]

I couldn't get up for this game :-( since finally started exercising again (running, visiting gym etc) I sometimes sleep like a stone, my body is complete shock. ;-) Couldn't hear my alarm clock and nearly also missed work until my wife started screaming at me.

Problem with me is I can't do much in between, I am off or on, I am serious with excercising or I am not exercising at all (what's the point?).

Also I f*****g hate when people are faster than me in the trail while running, I sometimes feel beaten and humiliated, just wait you s****s.

Hmmm, perhaps I need to visit a shrink. ;-) It's ok getting older, it's ok not winning, it's ok being average.

 

[klozge]

If you had to choose between Moser and Bednar being gone for next season who would you choose to fire?

That's easy. Bednar. Maybe twice to make sure he's really gone.

You're too critical of yourself. You can't be the best in everything, it's simply not possible, so remember that. I have similar issues. I am a man child. Haha.

 

[AvsCOL]

Funny how different the outlook becomes when the get the extra point. If that game would've ended on the Athanasiou goal in OT, this place would be a mess.

I don't think they looked like a team that wanted to make the postseason last night. Detroit is absolutely awful right now, and the Avs almost lost. Trying to stay positive here, but I'm also just calling it like it is. This time last year the Avs were in the wildcard spot, and had 9 more points than they do now.

 

[Metallo]

If Dries, Wilson, Cole, bork and Ghetto continue to play games for this team then we have a river of **** games still coming. You could literally replace all those guys for next game and the team would be better for it. Graves in for Cole, Toni in for Dries, Greer in for Ghetto. Simple

I agree 100%.

 

[Ceremony]

Put Moser’s telecast voice on the radio & I might could tolerate him. Didn’t like him then, don’t like him now. McNabb doesn’t miss anything, Moser misses everything. .02

You what m8

I was exaggerating a bit but you got my point. It's not like I used to be the best but it's this instinct bothering me. ;-)

 

[tucker3434]

Might not have been a perfect game but a perfect result. Too bad Ottawa managed to pick up a point too.

 

[Avs71]

So is Zadorov hurt? I couldn’t understand from twitter if he left the game twice?

Our playoff chances are hanging on by a thread lol I agree though, we looked terrible for long stretches of the game, including the 3rd period. We aren't going to have any success playing half games

 

[Goulet17]

He took a rough spill into the boards and got up slow and immediately went off the ice (went down the tunnel). He returned though. I had not heard that he left twice.

 

[Goulet17]

I don't understand why the Avs have such difficulty executing functional line changes. It has seemingly been an issue for most of the season. The DeKeyser goal was at least partly attributable to a poor line change and recognition of when or when not to change. With the late penalty in the third, the Avs were just skating around with 6 or 7 skaters on the ice like they didn't have a care in the world.

 

[AvsFan29]

When you have new linemates every 3 days, sometimes you forget which guy is yours lol

Hmm, so that's what goes through Avs players' heads on most nights...

 

[Avs]

I really hope Rycroft replaces McNabb next year. Or literally anyone else. But I think Rycroft will be the guy.

 

[henchman21]

Moser is way more the problem than McNabb... I don't think Haynes was the greatest or anything, but he certainly wasn't nearly as bad as Moser. McGahey can't replace Moser quick enough...

 

[Ararana]

I actually like McNabb. I think he's hilarious when he goes off. Moser is a dissapointing, I was so excited for him last summer too.

Now McGahey... That man has the voice of a sexy angel.

 

[Muffin]

Not possible. He had a gorgeous redirect on the Wings first goal and was a non factor in the 7 mins he played. I think he was a -2. We have the new Cliche with him. Landeskog was brutal tonight totally agreed. His brain went to **** that last shift when he didnt get it over to Rantanen and then went full you know what in OT haha

He didn't get it over to Rantanen but set up MacKinnon with a 1 timer that should've ended the game in regulation.

 

[dionisus1122]

Funny seeing the different opinions on the Play by Play.

I think Moser is wonderful and can't stand McNab or McGahey. I'm completely over McNab's random stories from 30 years ago, and his general obliviousness to the game. McGahey has a wonderful voice, but does a miserable job calling the game, and is more than happy to sit around and chat for HUGE stretches of the game (like literally 10 minutes of gametime) with McNabb. I hated that with Haynes, and I hate it now.

Moser are least always has his focus on the action on the ice, trying to raise the intensity of the actual hockey game. That is why he and Ryker make the best combination, imo.

As for last night - best possible situation! Red Wings get a point, Avs get the win.

 

[Lonewolfe2015]

One of the less mentioned bright spots has to be JTC. 30 points in 51 games, on pace for basically a 25/25 season in a full year. That's the type of scoring depth the Avs could make some noise with in the future as the team grows. And he just keeps getting better.

 

[TruePowerSlave]

Moser is garbage

That’s what bugs me about McNabb the most. The guy is so impressed by things that might have been crazy when he played 100 years ago but are very common in today’s game.
