That’s f***ing championship pride.

Avs were on their heels feeling no confidence after game 1, but instead of sulking like some here, they picked themselves up, imposed their will on Seattle and snatched this series back in their favor. They've willed themselves back in it.

Another outstanding game for the Avs new (about time) top pairing of Bo and Cale. They make so many smart plays in all three zones. Two guys with really high IQ reading off each other perfectly.

Love that breakaway goal by Nate. You could tell he was thinking to himself that he wasn’t going to be denied again. After so man frustrating plays, that was finally his chance and he buried it.

Another absolute battle of a game Lehky had too. Up until the last minute hustling his butt off to chase down the loose puck in the neutral zone, so he can get it to Mikko for the EN.

Georgie with another sneaky outstanding game. Some huge timely saves to keep them in it.

Lots of guys had a strong game in this one. EJ had a good game IMO. Really physical defense making it tough on Seattle.

Manson another game of BDE hockey. Throwing his weight around and bringing his teammates into the fire. He's bringing the swagger this team so desperately needs to feed off and lost with Naz.

Championship pedigree all over the place with that win. Some here would have folded after giving up the early goal again and gave the game away, but not this team. That's why they're winners.

Nah. This game cements how truly disastrous the TDL was. Mac and Makar are playing like they're (easily) the 2nd/3rd best players in the game (all for the price of...15.8 million in cap...that's like 1.75 Darnell Nurse'!).

You won't get many chances with them both at their apex, and the only job management has is to make use of every second of it. And they didn't. Not even remotely close. Even a smidge more help and they're off to the races.

Truly impressive you found something to complain about again after that great win.

I was drunk, but I was thinking that night. How many times in the playoffs or not do you see a team play like they're down a goal and never let up even with a lead.

It's some of the best hockey on the planet to watch, and the other team just wants to scratch their eyeballs out in frustration.

When they play that way, full tilt they're basically a team down a goal with 5 minutes left the score be damned. It's just impressive to watch.
