Pre-Game Talk: Week of stuffing(pucks in the net): @LA, @Ari, @Dal

[forsbergavs32]

Road trip continues, Hopefully we can grab some points against a struggling Kings team and an inconsistent Coyotes team, Dallas should be a tough one.

On another note, what’s everybody thankful for this year? Hockey related or otherwise.

I'm thankful that we still have 60ish games to go. I dreamed last night that it's already May and there wasn't any Avs hockey left

Btw, the Dallas game is at home.

And because this league is crazy we could win them all - or not.

Fun fact: Bishop is now hurt too.

Did we actually faced a number 1 this season or are they all out because they are too afraid to face "the best line in hockey"?!? We must have some great voodoo priests in the locker.

 

[Pokecheque]

Fun fact: Bishop always gets hurt.

Fixed.

 

[Avs_19]

Hopefully Compher's back this week.

Is Nieto's injury just very minor and one he can play through or is he basically a healthy scratch without saying it? It seems like he's healthy enough to play when others are injured but when someone comes back and they need an open spot, they scratch Nieto with a LBI.

I'm pretty sure Raanta isn't back from his injury either.

He's not but could be this week

They said on the broadcast that he was joining his family for his moms surgery.

So true. Nieto is playing like he misses Long Beach.

Like the idea of Dries-Soda-Ghetto. Soda gets someone skilled with him and Dries is a very good net presence but can also still work as a shutdown line

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Think we could go 3-0-0 this week. Playing a bad Kings team, an inconsistent Arizona team, and then home for Dallas. And we match up quite well against Dallas.

Hoping 3-0-0. Satisfied with 2-0-1/2-1-0. Triggered with 1-1-1. Pissed off, Avs suck, trade everyone 1-2, 0-3, 0-2-1.

 

[Goulet17]

Dries is the new Bourque. He is never coming out of the lineup.

When Compher is ready, and barring any additional injuries, I am expecting Kamenev to be scratched for him.

 

[Foppberg]

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Lol when did he do that?

 

[Foppa Frossa]

He got pulled down against the Ducks, I believe, and he got a 2 minute penalty for embellishment.

 

[S E P H]

Not sure that was a dive and more about him losing his balance. We all know he still has Bambi blood in his genetic code.
