GDT: Habs @ Abs | 7pm MT | The ONLY Emergency GDT

[missionAvs]

Predictable. Just beat Nashville.

Lol you think these clowns stand a chance against that team?

 

[Lolonegoal]

I thought we were going to score an easy 7 tonight haha.

Habs bench celebrating like they won a playoff series.

They're celebrating on the bench like that because it's the coaches first game back after his teenage son was hospitalized.

 

[NorthernAvsFan]

That was the worst game this teams played in a long time.

It’s clear they dumped everything they had into the 4 goal comeback against Pitt and took the night off.

 

[Muffin]

2GAA .926 save percentage. "It was the goalie!!!!!" f*** off. That was the coach and his BS pride. Also the f***ing PP coach that continues to never change anything.

Who said it was the goalie? Good thing Annuen was in net because we lose by multiple goals if Fourgiev was in net.

 

[CharlesPuck]

Lol you think these clowns stand a chance against that team?

Yes. Somehow I do.

 

[dahrougem2]

I also wonder if Makar is using a new stick or a new flex or what. Because he is bobbling the puck an insane amount the last several weeks.

Maybe you have them muted, but a lot of people.

He stinks

 

[The Kingslayer]

Nope. Nashville is the best team in hockey right now. For awhile it was Florida.

 

[Spilot23]

Feels bad for Mittelstadt. Not saying he played that well but bringing him and then putting him on a line with two defensive forwards playing the same exact way. Couldn’t they try something like this in the 3rd :
Drouin-Mack-Nuke
Lehk-Mitts-Rants
or
Lehk-Mack-Rants
Drouin-Mitts-Nuke

I think we’ve seen Drouin and Mitts chemistry too.

 

[NorthernAvsFan]

On the bright side… I thought Annunen played another solid game.

One thing I’ve noticed from him is that he bounces back really well from early soft goals. Because that second one was ugly, but he held it down the rest of the way. Good for him.

I think he's lying about being hurt. Cale Makar is a liar.

 

[AVSfan2daMAX]

The powerplay was exceptionally poor tonight. Could have really used a goal and instead they completely lost any momentum they had.

 

[Muffin]

Lehkonen and Nuke together doesn't work. I put this loss on Bednar too.

 

[wayninja]

Yes?

 

[Freaky Styley]

Sucks to give up a winner like that but this game isn't on Justus, it was on Bednar. If the boys aren't clicking change up the damn lines FFS. Waits too long to make adjustments consistently IMO

 

[chet1926]

f***ing embarrassing joke. The worst possible thing that could have happened tonight was scoring a pretty goal in the first minute.

The rest of the game they treated like a preseason, all star type game. It's f***ing pathetic to see that kind of effort at this point in the season.

Losses happen, but shit like tonight is completely unacceptable. You lost because you put no effort in. Not because the other team was better.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Lehkonen and Nuke together doesn't work. I put this loss on Bednar too.

Yup. Jared deserved that L like his players.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

I'm not even mad that we lost, I'm just irritated at how f***ing boring the game was

I'm mad they lost. That's not a game they should be losing, especially at home.

Nuke is almost a PPG winger. I wouldn't really call him a defensive forward. He's a 2 way power forward.

 

[Pokecheque]

Meh. Avs didn’t put in a great effort and let the Habs dictate this game after around midway through the second. Give the Habs credit, they did a good job of disrupting passing lanes and seemingly won EVERY puck battle. Avs had plenty of chances to really swing momentum but never put it together after that garbage third power play.

Annunen was not the primary reason they lost but…he really needed to have the two goals he let in. Oh well, I’m not about to blame him when the entire team in front of him was just plain awful tonight.

Somewhat growing concern about Nichushkin, who’s been bad for a few games now and was positively dreadful tonight. Soft, slow, and just plain clumsy with the puck.

Anyway, I’m not that worried. Avs kinda needed a wake up call after getting away with one against the Pens.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

I just think everyone had an off game, no one could consistently make or receive a pass. Looked like they weren’t taking the game seriously and when things didn’t just fall in place they couldn’t get it into gear.

Like I said previously, games like this are good prior to the playoffs. Stark reminder that you can’t just flick the switch every time

 

[forsbergavs32]

Drouin - Mack - Lehk
Nuke - Mitts - Mikko

This worked really well in the 2 games before tonight, I'd like to see Bednar stick with that instead of thinking he needs to always have Mack and Mikko together.

 

[sethro109]

I'm mad they lost. That's not a game they should be losing, especially at home.

Especially against THAT team. They have one good player, one decent player and the rest are complete shit.

 

[missionAvs]

Yes?

I've got some beachfront property in Arizona to sell you.
