Returned to play yesterday with a nice win, but now the Ducks practice was cancelled today due to Covid so now we get to see how many more players go into protocol for the Avs now.
I think he'll start to score a bunch. It's only a matter of timeIts actually insane how good the Avs record is when you consider Mackinnon has 3 goals. 3. Mika Zibenejad matched Mackinnons entire season output in 1 game last night. Mackinnon not hitting 15 goals and the Avs winning their division is a real possibility lol.
I think we are going to say this until April and its never going to happen. 15 goals might be generous the way things are going for him. Watch him get something like 12 goals and 70 assists. Avs win division.I think he'll start to score a bunch. It's only a matter of time
I mean it's looking like Mack is going for a Thornton like season. 15-90 for 105pts lol.I think we are going to say this until April and its never going to happen. 15 goals might be generous the way things are going for him. Watch him get something like 12 goals and 70 assists. Avs win division.

Whatever gets this team to a cup final.I wouldnt complain but I be lying if I said I didnt want him to score alot lol.
He's shooting at 3% (didn't look it up, just assuming), which won't continue. He'll hit 20 goals I'd bet.I think we are going to say this until April and its never going to happen. 15 goals might be generous the way things are going for him.

I dont see him getting 20. Funny enough I can see him getting 20 in a playoff run or close to it.He's shooting at 3% (didn't look it up, just assuming), which won't continue. He'll hit 20 goals I'd bet.
If we go the distance yah I could see it.I dont see him getting 20. Funny enough I can see him getting 20 in a playoff run or close to it.
Helm did nothing wrong on the PK there. He took away the slingshot pass, he effectively made it a 3-on-3. It's not Helm's fault Erik Johnson became brain dead and decided to chase - miserably I might add - Cam Fowler and put his defensive partner in a horrible position on that goal.Watch Helm’s coverage on the PK goal given up yesterday. There’s a reason Bednar doesn’t really trust him defensively. He’s generally ok on the 4th line but that’s probably not what they had in mind and they really could do better.
As far as MacK, he is shooting pretty much 4% but I don’t think it’s as simple as oh yeah it’s just bad luck it will regress up. His low shooting percentage at 5v5 which was about around 5% was the story of his career until his breakout in 17/18 where he shot 13% but it’s declined every year since and was just over 6% last year. He’s getting more shots blocked and shooting from further away. If it’s a means to an end where guys like Mikko, Landy, Cale are scoring more and he’s getting 70+ assists then it’s just how his game has changed but it’s not nothing either. On the PP is where I think he’s getting unlucky if anything, shooting under 4% there even with how the unit is frustrating at times definitely won’t continue. I’m not sure he clears more than 20 goals this year tho.

I'd like if Bednar experimented with Mack at the top of the umbrella instead of Cale. We know he can one time better than Cale and have Cale closer to the net for wristers could be deadly.Watch Helm’s coverage on the PK goal given up yesterday.
