Pre-Game Talk: Week of Blues, East Coast, and AHL Lineups (STL, @CAR, @WSH)

[The Kingslayer]

The team is giving up way too many shots right now. The fact that Georgiev has a .924SV% with a 2.70 GAA is pretty telling. That his save percentage is that high while allowing almost 3 goals a game.

Every game this season its been 30+ shots and probably 40 shots against a few times. Not good.

Mediocre team, mediocre results. Not particularly surprising.

Just lucky the rest of the Central (and Western conference in general) is dogshit.

The team currently has no 2nd pairing and is missing by far its two best defensive forwards. It makes sense why there'd be some defensive woes. They just gotta get healthy

 

[wayninja]

This schedule has kind of sucked so far

Fire Bednar!

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

It sucks that Bednar found the room last year only to lose it again this year.

That's why they need to fire him ASAP before he finds it again

This has been a problem all season even when Nuke was healthy.

The room was renovated. Maybe they also moved it and Jared is still looking.

What happened to Ben Meyers? Any idea what injury he has? Not the start I envisioned for him. Thought he'd at least start out as a servicable bottom six forward.

I don't know what his injury is but it was untimely. He would have been called back for sure if he was healthy.

Meyers should be back soon, maybe even tomorrow. If they want to be extra careful, they'll keep him out and wait until the black friday games against Iowa to put him back in.

Hopefully he comes back feeling pretty good and gets on a bit of a role. I liked what I saw from him last year, and am still hopeful for him to be a long-term option in the bottom-6

He simply needs to play some minutes and get going. I don't think the Avs should call him up until some details are ironed out in his game, really no matter the injuries. Give him ~20 games in the AHL and that should clean things up.

100% agree, that's why I was saying they need to get him going. He came into the NHL last year with a boatload of confidence after having a very strong season in the NCAA.

I miss Val.

I hope he doesn't get on to big a role or they'll elevate his roll... and then wheel have to watch him get yo-yo'ed up and down the lineup.

I thought Meyers was looking fine to start this season, especially with such limited minutes. I think his playing style fits this team to a tee, so I'm not sure why Bednar refused to play him much.

 

[Muffin]

Good 'ol scramble boi

Will never forget this goal

 

[Avs9296]

I miss Nail, Foote, and Finger.

At least we have Toews.
