How many ass slaps is Lehky getting from RIAL right now?
Dillon starts it by skating hard to the Avs goal line and grabbing Kivi to scrum, then after Duhaime steps in, Dillon attempts a 2-leg takedown.Unfortunate, I hope he's ok. I was thinking about a potential cut as the melee happened. It blows my mind these incidents don't happen more often.
Agree. But it actually starts with the coach who put them on the ice. A real dumbass who thinks it's still 1975 and the Bruins are playing the Flyers.Dillon starts it by skating hard to the Avs goal line and grabbing Kivi to scrum, then after Duhaime steps in, Dillon attempts a 2-leg takedown.
I hope he’ll be alright, but he’s got no one to blame for his injury but himself
Even if they're losing a bit of money, the franchise is worth a ton of money, and is appreciating quickly.The thing is, Jets have plenty of money (their owner is probably the richest man in Canada). The problem is that they are not generating any.
With the way Georgiev was playing and how the D was, how could you blame anyone for thinking the Avs had little chance?I hate us all!!!!
Specially myself
At least the 3rd period sent nammerus back to the abyss. I swear that poster would rather see the Avs lose so they can crap on CMac than win more CupsI see the "I AM THE REAL FAN" types are coming out of the woodwork again
Is our season over yet?
Just wondering where everyone is who said we would be done in 4 or 5.
Worst fan base ever.
Now now, if you look at this thread before the 3rd period the narrative was that Georgiev was losing us this game.
Reading some of the other team forums on here, you see a lot of admiration/envy for the speed and passing of the Avs compared to their own teams.
It's awesome for us that our favorite team isn't just winning in some horribly boring trapping style but instead wins with speed and movement and a high-octane relentless attack. The entertainment value of the Avs is sky high. We really are lucky.
They're coming out of somewhere, that's for sureI see the "I AM THE REAL FAN" types are coming out of the woodwork again
There is still somehow the narrative that Luongo was the reason the Canucks lost the Final even though the team scored 8 goals in 7 games and he’s the only reason it even went 7. It’s the nature of the beast when goalies play poorly but the team does as well. He’s the easy fall guy rightly or wronglyNow now, if you look at this thread before the 3rd period the narrative was that Georgiev was losing us this game.
I’m not blaming anyone. I’m one of the most if not the most pessimistic Avs fans here. I thought this series would be over in 3. Meaning Jets in 3With the way Georgiev was playing and how the D was, how could you blame anyone for thinking the Avs had little chance?
They certainly turned a switch. And the biggest (gratifying) surprise is the emergence of lines 2 - 4 while the top line has yet to really get in gear.
I've been following the Avs and the Rangers for the last few years now (Avs for longer), and it's not even close lol. I've also lurked a lot of other boards around here.Reading some of the other team forums on here, you see a lot of admiration/envy for the speed and passing of the Avs compared to their own teams.

Obviously Mitts play making is probably his standout ability. But the thing I’ve been most impressed with is his wall work. He almost always comes away with the puck in board battles.A lot of Buffalo fans thought Mittelstadt would excel in the playoffs, looks like they were onto something.
Love the way he drags pucks on the walls and finds people with passes. His passing on the rush has been great too. The ability to stop up and find people when there’s no space has been impressive.
All of Mitts, Lehkonen, and Nichushkin have been great in this series.
Which is what I've been saying over at HFNYR for years now. The Rangers aren't that slow, they just play slow. NHL players by default are fast.I dont think the Avs are a particularly fast team. In fact some guys on the team are downright slow. But they play extremely fast, and that's exactly how our coaching staff wants them to be playing. Never take the foot off the gas.
And people want Bednar fired.
90% of that stuff comes from Bednar(And the coaching staff in general). Its exactly how he wants our guys playing. Speed is so f***ing hard to defend. Not just skating speed either, but extremely fast decisions, quick passes, a system that is designed for fast plays, ferocious forchecking, constant pressure and back pressure, etc. etc.

Yeah, I remember saying this before. Some other fan bases hate refs and opponents, we hate us.One thing I like about this board is losses are almost never blamed on the refs. We bitch and moan about individual calls, but only on very rare occasions actually blame losses on the officiating.
I go look at other teams boards and I see losses blamed on the refs all the f***ing time.
You think so? I thought he played fine for the most part, some stupid plays here and there, but didn't really kill the offence as he did in the first two games. Plus, that sauce to Makar before MacKinnon's goal was pure elegance, he at least deserved that point.Rantanen didn’tt deserve two points. He really needs to get going.
