Pre-Game Talk: Week of Return of the MacK (@TOR, @MTL, @OTT)

[The Kingslayer]

Giroux disappears more often than any other elite star I've ever seen. 50/50 we even hear his name mentioned tomorrow.

2 goals minimum from Claude.

 

[Pokecheque]

2 goals minimum from Claude.

And at least one will be a one-timer on the power play

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

What's crazy is that even though he's the best player in the world, I don't know that it'll be "his team" amongst all those winners. I have a feeling it'll still be Crosby's team.

Without a doubt, that team is still Sids team.

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

Tomorrow has trap game written all over it with all our injuries

Agreed. Though, I’m hopeful Byram will be back. Guessing Makar is out another game, or two.

I am hoping we see Byram and Kadri back tonight. It sure sounded like they were right on the verge of being ready to go on Saturday. I'm less hopeful for Makar.

We didn't see Frankie get called up yesterday, which worries me. The Avs need two points between Philly and the Rangers to go .500 on one of their longest road trips of the season. You can't be dicking around with JJ and Annunen if Frankie is healthy.

 

[cccoltsicehockey]

I would like the see Annunen get one of the games and Frankie get the other. I have seen enough of JJ that Annunen can't really be any worse and I would like to see him with a full game.

 

[Ararana]

Coaching bump just in time for the Avs?

 

[waffledave]

Any news on Kadri playing tonight? Thanks all,

 

[Koolboss]

Any news on Kadri playing tonight? Thanks all,

Looks like he will be back tonight

 

[waffledave]

Looks like he will be back tonight

Fantastic!!!

 

[Ararana]

Kuemper skating



EDIT: Makar and Kadri





No news on Byram yet

 

[Raucherhusten]

No news on Byram yet

Don't get greedy

Cale, Naz and even JTC will help a lot!

 

[viach]

Makar is good to Go ?

 

[Ararana]

Don't get greedy

I'd trade Makar, Kadri, and Kuemper for a healthy Byram lol. I mean the Avs would be worse off for it, but I'd be happy.

 

[Raucherhusten]

Yeah, i get that. Dude deserves a little bit of luck ... and health.

Oh boy

Now Hench can be as dissapointed as I am. They chose to put McDermid in over McDonald. Wut?

Makes no sense. Macdonald can skate and is LESS of a liability out there than Macdermid. I have no f***in idea why the insistence on playing this guy as a dman when hes clearly out of his depth. Constantly putting this guy in a position for failure. Play him as a forward if you must but not on D. f***in hell.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Makar is good to Go ?

Depends. If the wind is gusting above or below 5 kms in Philly today probably not.

 

[Avs44]

Let’s see:

- Upset Giroux
- Flyers have a new coach
- Avs starting rookie goaltender

Yeah, this is gonna be great.

 

[The Merchant]

Insane.

 

[Muffin]

At least that means Makar is good to go if one of them is scratched.
