GDT: This one might have more flair ;) Hurricanes vs Avalanche 11AM MST

[Avs91]

Avs are playing with fire big time right now.

Grubauer bailing them out so far

 

[VikingAv]

What a slow, boring game so far my god. Feels like everyones still hungover.

Everyone except Grubauer apparently

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

I see now why the Canes are freaking gods in the corsi department, they literally shoot the puck from everywhere the moment they touch it

 

[the_fan]

Avs getting dominated

 

[Soedy]

Good penalty by Rantanen, saved a pretty sure goal. Avs looking sloooooow and a step behind all the time.

 

[UncleRisto]

Horrible start. Ugh.

 

[Avs_19]

It feels like they've had a man advantage for a while now so might as well make it official with a penalty.

 

[Spender]

Carolina has been doing a good job of not allowing Avs to break out cleanly. This will not be an easy game the way things are going.

 

[Phosphophyllite]

Canes score less with man advantage than 5-on-5, no worries.

 

[Foppberg]

Good first 5 minutes followed by bad 5 minutes.

 

[CharlesPuck]

I see now why the Canes are freaking gods in the corsi department, they literally shoot the puck from everywhere the moment they touch it

And why Corsi alone is worthless

 

[missionAvs]

Just got in. Doesn't sound like it's going well judging by the posts here. Grubs playing solid is a good sign though!

 

[Foppberg]

Carolina really smothers you.

 

[Raucherhusten]

Grubi against the Canes so far. Wake up guys, it's hockey time.

 

[5280]

We look tired for some reason

 

[Tralfamadore]

Good period by the Canes. Grubs looks great.

Jost has been a huge disapointment to start the season. Most shifts he doesnt even look NHL ready. Just constantly getting knocked off of pucks and outmuscled.

 

[cgf]

lol at McNab's "crusty old vets" jib. I wonder who that was directed towards ;-)

 

[benzino]

Landyyy

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

I dont think this has been nearly as bad as some of you think.


The Canes shoot the puck from everywhere and the Avs are clearly recognizing that. They're just collapsing and letting the Canes have the far away shots.


In terms of actual scoring chances I'd venture to guess the Canes might have 1-2 more then the Avs.

 

[Cousin Eddie]

Landeskog just scores goals

 

[AvsWraith]

Captain on a roll!

 

[AvsMakar08]

Viking did it again.

 

[VikingAv]

Landy!!!! You beautiful son of a bitch!

 

[Freudian]

Hi, Sebastien.

 

[Avs91]
