Pre-Game Talk: Week to Start Fresh (@NYR, @NJ, @BOS)

[tigervixxxen]

It's here, folks! After a 10 month long offseason, we are finally ready to start fresh and begin a new season. Kicking things off with a road trip and two day time games, it will be good for the guys to get away before coming home.

Practice is at 11am, hopefully final cuts are official today.

Mediocrity is way more credit than I am willing to give

I say we surprise one of those teams with some early season jump and sneak out a win. No idea which one, but somebody will underestimate us and get lazy. Best we can hope for this year, right?

Edit, forgot one of the teams was Jersey. We beat Jersey, should feel lucky to sneak any extra points out.

Hischier will get his first NHL goal against us.

Excited to see the young guys get it started ! And really happy with the early start Saturday against NJ ! I won't be able to watch the Bruins game on Monday though so that's a bit of a bummer as there aren't too many instances where the Avs play around dinner time (french time).

It's going to be great to see the young guys get a full season under their belt !

He's been good, played all preseason with Duchene and Kerfoot. They are the second line I guess.

 

[tigervixxxen]

We seem to always win that day game against Boston, they tend to nap through that one for some reason.

 

[Avs71]

Beat the Rangers and Devils, lose to the Bruins.

Kerfoot first NHL goal Saturday.

Saint John, NB. Must be close if its 7 hours for you too.

 

[Piestany88]

Im just across the border into nova scotia ..so i guess it's prob 8.5 ish if ur saying 7...Been awhile since i did the drive but i know it's closer than Quebec city which is 9 ish for me .

 

[Piestany88]

30 mins to moncton for me

 

[klozge]

Avs'll get all the wins all season long! Whuuuuuuh!
I'm so ready for this. Let's go Avs!

 

[Taak19]

W, W, L

 

[henchman21]

Going with 3 wins and parade planning.

 

[Freudian]

I'd be happy with three points. I don't think any of the four teams are particularly good.
