GDT: PS Game 2: Dallas Stars @ Colorado Avalanche | 7:00pm MT

Fun fact, you could fit 8 Kerfoots in one Nichushkin

I was impressed that Nichushkin had enough awareness to pop free and draw the penalty.

 

[tucker3434]

Not impressed with Burakovsky so far...

I bet Donskoi has a better year. Hope I’m wrong though.

 

[Raucherhusten]

Kadri wearing an "A" is interesting.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Just noticed Kadri rocking an A

 

[S3rkie]

Byram looking better so far tonight. Don't love that pass cross crease to G but at least it was on target.

 

[Raucherhusten]

LOL @Landy

 

[forsbergavs32]

3rd line grinder getting the penalties going early

 

[Avs_19]

I think MacKinnon's just messing around right now. Showing off his hands and trying to get others involved. He doesn't have much interest in shooting so far.

 

[Ararana]

That really looked like Landy took that penalty on purpose lol

Mackinnon's done. He's a product of Rantanen. Or vice versa, I can't tell.

 

[S3rkie]

Haha makar semi breakaway on a pk. I love it.

 

[flyfysher]

Makar is so dangerous. And quick.

 

[Avs_19]

Makar's still fast.

 

[ASmileyFace]

Makar man. I love that so much

 

[AvsWraith]

I just want to see MacK and Makar all the time...

 

[forsbergavs32]

That bust couldn’t even get a shot on goal. Just send him down now

 

[wayninja]

Gotta say, going in down by only 1 is a win for Dallas...

 

[Ararana]

Avs are just toying with them (as they should be)

 

[AvsWraith]

Alt looks pretty good.

 

[Avs_19]

Good period, as expected.

You can tell it's definitely the first preseason game for Landeskog.

 

[Avsboy]

For the most part a dominant Avs period. Burakovsky isn't doing enough - either in the wrong place, losing the puck, or importantly not being aggressive enough. Incredibly worrisome without Rantanen here, since I'm not giving him a "rookie pass".

 

[AvsCOL]

Thought Byram looked a lot better that period. Didn't look out of place at all.

These new numbers are going to take some getting use to. A lot of 40-somethings lol

MacKinnon clearly a bit rusty. Hasn't been bad, but not his usual dominant self.

 

[Ararana]

Good period, as expected.

You can tell it's definitely the first preseason game for Landeskog.

Mack too. Their passes are in preseason form for sure.

Byram looking better already, wish he'd shoot one.

 

[Avs_19]

Byram was solid. Calm back there and not making early mistakes tonight.

 

[flyfysher]

Nichushkin (dude is huge!), Kadri and Donskoi were noticeable. Team speed is exceptional and the transition game is pretty smooth,
