I just want an opening night sellout. It seems like fewer fans show up each game against the Wild as if they're expecting the team to lose.
Have you watched a lot of Pred games?
I completely dissagree that they have been the best team in the league since Feb.
They remain very inconsistent and suspect. I dont think of them as power houses as you do, not a Caps or LA for sure. But thats just my perspective, I think I saw them loses two or three games where they just did not play well... and that could be any team.
The Avs have had help from plenty of other teams. If they want to be in the playoffs, they're going to have to earn it. The fact the race is still open shows how much help they have had.
If they end up missing, be mad at the Avs for having the season series potentially swept by the Wild. Or losing to all the bottom teams consistently. Or having a terrible October. Etc.
It's not on the Kings or Hawks. They did their jobs, and they'll be in the postseason.
Not saying they're on Washington's on L.A's level in general, but since February they've been very good to the point where they're on the verge of pushing Chicago out of the top-3 in the Central.
well chicago is pushing chicago out.. proverbial cannot beat themselves out of a wet paper bag play as of late ...
Nashville deserves a bit more credit than that
ok.. look at Chicago's record.. that is my point.. if they go 500 from feb one they are way way ahead
They're 9-9-3. That's .500 hockey, technically speaking.
Would be nice to win in regulation but it doesn't to be. OT or shootout win will put us 2 pts behind. Because we have one game in hand and also hold the first tiebreaker we would only need to win one more game than the Wild. A loss though would most likely seal the deal. This is not over but it was certainly disappointing.The season is down to the Minny game. Win, and the Avs can still find a way back in. Lose and the task very likely too big. The win probably has to be in regulation too.
