The return of Boochene

This was going to be a tough game if we were healthy. Not having Landeskog against the Preds sucks.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Avs crushed them at home earlier without Mack and with Jo Jo in net. Then played them in Nashville missing a bunch of guys on short notice in a game they shouldn't have ever played and lost.

Both teams are playing well. Will probably come down to goaltending, the fact that the Avs played last night and had to travel, while the Preds haven't played since Saturday, and that historically the Avs haven't faired well in that building.

Forsberg nets 2, Duchene 1, and the Preds win 5-3 with an ENG.

 

[The Moops]

Epic GDT

@forsbergavs32 can we get a live thread?!?! Geeze...

 

[CharlesPuck]

Avs 7, Darcey 3

If the bolded has anything to do with it, we're f***ed lol. That said this will be a close one. 7-1 Preds. Jost with the only goal and his 100th point.

Let’s hope Jost doesnt go all Duchene on us and celebrate too much

I thought they said You See Saros entered the covid protocol yesterday

 

[katfude]

I don't have the warm fuzzies about this game after the team had to run the top guys hard last night to complete a comeback against a team they should not have had to come back against.

I want another W. Bad. Pretty sure I won't get what I want tonight but I would love to be proven wrong.

 

[dahrougem2]

If Saros is in goal, Nashville wins 3-1.

If Saros isn't in goal, Avalanche win 6-2.

 

[ASmileyFace]

Big game for Darcy imo. He has got to step up and steal a game at some point, and coming off being pulled you have to imagine he is going to want that.

 

[Ararana]

Does anyone actually believe in this Nashville team? I certainly don't. Given the circumstances tonight's game will be tough, but I don't expect them to be above the Avs in points for much longer.

In what sense? They’re a decent team so I wouldn’t be shocked at all if they play us well tonight. But they also aren’t winning a cup or anything.

Mainly talking grand scheme of things. Personally I think a wildcard finish is the best Nashville gets this year. I can't see them staying above any of Colorado-Minnesota- St Louis.

Yes because they have IMO a top-3 goaltender in the entire league who doesn't seem to get tired.

 

[Hennessy]

I am prepared for this to be a loss.
Play in your own barn one night, than fly halfway across the country to play again the next is a tough handicap for any team.
All that being said, the Avs right now can beat anyone, anytime, anywhere. They should win, regardless.
But I won't be on here demanding to dismantle half the team if they do not.

*glances sideways at about half this board*

 

[GirardSpinorama]

We can't lose with a GDT as epic as this, no matter how bad we looked last night.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Ill be happy with a point tonight but im not expecting it. A tough ask for the guys. They are due for a stinker its too bad it has to be against Nashville.

 

[Shinjuku Calling]

Are they on a back to back also? Probably not.

 

[Ararana]

Are they on a back to back also? Probably not.

They're coming off a two day break. Energy will not be in the Avs favor for this one.

 

[hoserthehorrible]

Not sure Forsberg is playing. He's been on the Covid list the last few days and not sure if he's cleared yet.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Meh.


Avs are 2-0 on the 2nd game of a b2b so far this year. I dont think energy should be a factor.
