Z scratched.

just saw photos above, is this wrong? It was tweeted a minute ago.

Scratches tend to do pre-game skates.

 

[The Abusement Park]

Wonder if they were shopping Z at the deadline. His value is practically zero during the summer if this keeps up.

I mean it wasn't super high before this anyways.

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

Seriously would you dress Z, warm him up and scratch him? Does that even make sense?

 

[Balthazar]

Either Avs twitter messed up or maybe that's a dated photo...

Neither

 

[The Kingslayer]

Kaut is warming up. Why call him up just to not play him? You want 5 mins of Dries?

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Maybe Z has "the flu" now too?

 

[The Kingslayer]

Neither

Apparently Dries gives the Avs a better chance at winning than Kaut.

Because Namest is OK to play. He was going to replace him.

His date must have cancelled and he needed plans for the night.

He gets paid an NHL salary regardless of playing, does he not? Probably throwing him a bone and having him as a precaution and he doesn't burn a game for his ELC.

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

It’s all up to the top line again.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Kaut should replace Dries

Same as it was when he was sent down. Not gonna burn his year unless they are forced to

Holy smokes lads, every team has their scratches warm up in the pre-game skates just in case someone gets injured in them. It has happened. That's why players rarely shower at the hotel or in home, they shower after the skate and they're good for the day.

just burn it

Interesting. I had no idea. My bad.

McGahey's voice is easier on the ears and he's better at his job than Moser.

 

[mapletreemarty]

Its Monday... thank god, no Moser....

 

[The Merchant]

Why would you opt to not inject two superior, rested players on the second night of a b2b? How the f*** does that make sense?

 

[Ararana]

I like Bednar, but sometimes he makes some really stupid decisions.

 

[El Travo]

Good job Florida.

 

[CoachBadkitten]

Panthers beat Blues! Thank you Q

 

[The Merchant]

Panthers beat the Blues in St. Louis. This game just got a bit bigger
