Pre-Game Talk: Week of falling out of the playoffs (Van)

[forsbergavs32]

Bye week time so we will inevitably be falling out of a playoff spot more than likely. Hopefully Mack and EJ can be ready by Saturday and hopefully this break can help reset the team.

Time off to break up the bad habits, hopefully. They're either going to come back with clear heads and focus... or come back frustrated and keep digging themselves a deeper grave.

Varlamov and Grubauer have to be much better for the Avs to have any chance.

So I just went through Landy's goals, and it seems he scored on 16 deflections and batted three more in out of mid-air.

Ridiculous

 

[Raucherhusten]

One win this week would be nice. Just one, i'm not greedy.

 

[Tralfamadore]

Just remember win or lose...







Those are the two options.

 

[S3rkie]

The only positive spin I can think of is there aren't any more upcoming breaks for the team to be distracted by/looking forward to. Hopefully they get there shit together and at least play entertaining hockey, then build from there.

Coming back from a long break...what could possibly go wrong?

I looked yesterday. We won't get the boot until Feb 2nd. ANA has to beat WPG in their building earlier Saturday. Then we play Vancouver.

That's some Ryan Smyth type stats

I could have sworn ryker said he had 8 or 9 deflection goals, good for first in the league, just last week. 16 sounds high

Yah I don't think over half of his goals have come from deflections. I'd say around 9-10 sounds right.

Went through his highlights and counted them, maybe I double counted some since NHL.com is a shitshow, but I doubt it.

Ray Bourque was on the last Spittin Chiclets podcast. All of it is pretty good, but he starts talking about the Avs about an hour in.

Any good stories or is it just the usual stuff?

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Did the NHL forget about us or something?

We don’t play for the first 5 nights back from the ASG. Weird.

He talks about the time of the trade, which I thought was interesting. Don't know if people have heard about that or not. More of the better stories are from Boston though.

It's our bye-week, like five other teams are off the same time as us so it's not like Avs are the only ones.

I understand, I just don’t like it.

Oilers don't play till Saturday aswell so Edmonton radio talking non stop about who they can fleece at the trade deadline to get them over the top and push for playoffs lol.

I be more upset if we were on a winning streak lol

Or even just winning occasionally.
