They are great but the fans who basically declared them a dynasty already really need to relax.
The Avs are a good team and a contender. But this start should be an eye opener for everyone who thought you can already hand them the cup. Not sure where all the hype suddenly came from.
PS
Kings are a well-coached team, especially defensively and they took advantage of some shaky goaltending and defensive breakdowns.
Yeah, the Kings aren't bad. People who clamor about that just have no idea what a decent coach can do.
Spoken like a person who probably hasn't seen Girard play for any extended amount of time.Their defense is overrated, young inexperienced players hyped to the moon, Girard especially
Jonathan Quick is to the Avs what Semyon Varlamov was to the Hawks. Hawk fans know.The 1st line and Dcore are fantastic. However, depth scoring has been without a doubt the big issue. Our 2nd & 3rd lines have been ass.
The Avs don't play well against the Kings and it was the same exact thing last season.

Gotta say the Saad acquisition doesn't seem to fit what they're trying to do. Not exactly a player that plays with a lot of pace. It really doesn't matter that much until the playoffs which they should be comfortably in. Then they decide if they're going to be the new Capitols or not in the 2nd round.
I didn't even remember how terrible these early season hot takes and over reactions are. People today are so inpatient that it blows my mind. Just like James Neal was gonna win the rocket last season and the Sabres were gonna win the Cup the year before that. Settle down a bit maybe? It's been like four games.
Zadorov wasn't physical lately I don't know why maybe when he tries to hit someone it always result him getting a penalty for being taller than the other guy Graves was sadly more physical than him last year.Passing up on Hall in favor of Saqd was really stupid. I have a feeling they'll miss Zadorovs physicality as well
