True. Not impossible, im just losing faith at this point.I'm hoping that Condon can bounce back. Hey, he has shown that he can play well in stretches. We just need him to get to that league average .915 save percentage, that's all...
Anyone find a SENS "pocket schedule" yet this year? If so, where??
The Condon started Arizona game was the moment when all started to fall apart for this team last year, Condon let in a absolute stinker in the final minutes then an equally bad goal in OT.
Please let Condon rot on the bench.

Watched Tampa-Avs yesterday. Both these teams are legit. Avs are going far this year. We better bring our A game or we'll get blown out.
Everyone is talking about how we're this year's Vegas. I think the Avs model is what we should strive for. They're crazy fast. They also traded away one of their top players and still made the playoffs.

They need to trade Wideman asap, he is the one UFA who may actually have some value to other teams given he is a right shot D.
Seeing some of the hate certain Avs fans have for Duchene makes me not feel so bad about our fan bases relationship with previous star players.
I feel badly for Condon, who from all reports is a great guy and a great teammate, but at the same time we can't afford to give him any sympathy starts. We can only start him when Anderson clearly needs a rest. Anything beyond that he's going to have to earn.
Here's the issue - if Condon were to disappear to a desert island tomorrow, who else could we use? Mike McKenna, 35 years old and with a sub .900 lifetime save percentage in the NHL? Someone like Anton Forsberg, who has the same lifetime save percentage as Condon? The goalie market out there is REALLY thin - not a lot of great options for any team with a need for a veteran...
Anyone??
Anyone??
That was pre-Duchene trade and we went into a death spiral after that.
We can beat them, sure. But it's more likely we get torched 5-3 or something. I'd honestly start Condon in this one, take the L and roll over the regressing Golden Knights.
I remember well. That was when Dorion called into TSN1200 to complain that they weren't praising the team enough. They barely won against Colorado and he felt they needed to be stroked even more.No that was post trade. The very next two games with him in the lineup were against his former team while in Sweden.
Well, he asked to leave essentially.
We're not particularly happy with Heatley.
i'd say one was done respectfully, one wasn't.....a little different to meWell, he asked to leave essentially.

*Conspiracy theory alert*
What's stopping the Avs front office from telling one of their players to "accidentally" run Anderson and then watch gleefully as Condon fills in for ~25 games and starts the tank (giving them a top-four pick instead of a 5-15 pick).

Heatley asked to leave and a large contingent of players asked Murray to move him.Well, he asked to leave essentially.
