GDT: Week of healing (Edm, Chi, @Chi)

[forsbergavs32]

Finally some good news on the injury front with Mikko and Calvert being possibilities this week and Wilson potentially coming back from the dead and practicing.

Also looks like we might get to see what we have in Calle Rosen with our defense sucking.

Not confident whatsoever about playing the Oilers. MacKinnon tends to really struggle against McDavid.

2-3 points

The Oilers are probably walking over the Avs followed by a split with the Hawks.

 

[Avs_19]

I'm hoping it's to replace one of Graves/Cole in the lineup but we can't rule out an EJ injury after Kerfoot's stupid play. Either way, this team badly needs some more puck movement from the defense so hopefully Rosen actually gets a shot.

 

[Avsboy]

EJ was hit by a shot in the leg and limped off before returning. Could be an LBI. Could be Kerfoot. Could be nothing.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Oh man the Rosen news is awesome. I hope we see:


Girard - Makar
Rosen - EJ
Zadorov


And we just play 5 Dmen. No need for a 6th guy.



As for the week. I'm guessing Mikko is back by the Chicago Home/Home. And I'm gonna say Calvert is back on Wednesday.

I can't imagine we roll with 5 D given the means putting those 5 guys out there more. And 3 of those guys haven't been playing too well and 1 of them has come from the AHL.

Also, as an aside. I have never understood calling two back-to-back games, where you play one at home and one away, a "home and home". Where does that come from?

I mean it's a home for the Avs and a home for the Hawks. Hence "home and home."

Yea, I get that part of it. But wouldn't "home and away" make more sense because usually the subject of tbe sentence is one of the teams.

He had 5 points in 3 games vs the Oilers last year. McDavid had 2 points in 3 games vs the Avs.

I thought it was a fairly standard saying, tbh

 

[AvsCOL]

Hopefully EJ is okay, but Rosen deserves a shot regardless. Graves and Cole have been horrible lately, and they don't deserve to see the ice time they're seeing. After the hot start Graves has, he's showing his true colors now. Looks bad.

Yay Calle! Hope he does well!

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

The Rosen news is a huge W, unless EJ is injured. Really hope that’s not the case.

 

[5280]

They haven’t really been too progressive with their decisions recently so I have to think this Rosen call up is because of EJ, not because a couple of other dudes suck.

 

[AvsFan29]

He had 5 points in 3 games vs the Oilers last year. McDavid had 2 points in 3 games vs the Avs.

Shut up!

Still a net positive

I want revenge on Edmonton.

This week, the Empire strikes back!

 

[Spirits]

He had 5 points in 3 games vs the Oilers last year. McDavid had 2 points in 3 games vs the Avs.

Yeah. our problem against the Oilers was playing without most of our star power. The Oilers aren't as good as us at full health.

 

[ASmileyFace]

Being able to squeak out a win against the Oil would be huge for confidence.

Getting Mikko, Calvert and Wilson back soon would be amazing. Hoping for a real good week here.

 

[Foppa Frossa]

It's a home and home because there will be more Hawks fans than Avs fans at the Pepsi Center.

 

[Thepoolmaster]

Going to first AVS game at the Pepsi center over American Thanksgiving. First time in Denver too. Hoping Rantanen is back for it.
