Points per game

That's what I suspected at first, thanks for the confirmation.

Ah my bad. I was thinking you were trying to get ahead of the McDrai religious cults going on.

I enjoyed the joke, but wasn't sure it was a joke.

That’s ok. I’m not sure either.

Is Johansson backing up tonight and getting the start tomorrow?

I would hope so

Must win game tonight after the VGK/DAL fiasco

 

[sethro109]

These LA mind games shouldn't be allowed!

Our guys are all "Shook up" now.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

We play hockey in an hour?

Seems quite likely we'll see the former Avs prospect make his NHL debut tonight. The Ducks were down to five defensemen for last night's game.

The Avs gave won a lot of road games this year. Health has been a bigger issue however. At what point do the Avs shut it down for key guys?

There's reason to kick the can down the road a little but longer but Dallas has easy games from here on out. Is it better to rest/heal and take on Minnesota as a lower seed?

I think the Avs are going to push for 1st in the division. To do that, they'll probably need to win all but one of their remaining games. And if they win out they could still take the West. I'm guessing as long as they have something to play for they won't be resting anybody. No way a team this competitive will accept second in the division just to play Minnesota if they can help it.

Congrats to Drew Helleson on his first NHL goal!

He might get a bit tired tonight, that's an insane amount of ice time.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

Had the most awesome afternoon nap today. Dreamt Foppa was in his prime and playing LW with Nate and Mikko.

People threw a fit before the Canada road trip last month that the Avs would get hammered, and we swept the roadie.

People threw a fit last week before the Cali road trip that the Avs would get hammered. Once again- roadie swept.

There are some poor prognosticator's here.

You must be new here, welcome!

8 points win-streak with Mikko hopefully breaking the 50 mark in the first game against the Sharks!

Never in doubt!
Mikko didn't score in the first game but more than made up.

You were only one game too early!
