Thread: THE official Colorado Avalanche/NHL thread!!!

Seriously. We get on back (Landy) and then lose Makar.

We are winning. I do not like the way we are playing all that much. Francouz stood on his head!
A little slack in our own zone imo.

However, we are winning! So we are doing something right.

Welp no Hall.

Glad we didn't overpay to get him though with how Burakowski and others have stepped up.

The projected line tonight is Mac, Mikko and Burakowski with Kadri, Landi and Donskoi as line 2.

I prefer those lines.

Ugh, 3 minutes left, they had that game

So nice to watch a game on my TV. Since I turned it on the Avs scored twice.

One of the most bullshit calls. Wow.
At least they screwed up royally in regular season and not playoffs

Dang, I left to get a little shopping in and the I looked at my phone and went what? UR you're right, time to get this worked out now.

Anyone here tonight? Watching football on my TV and hockey/Avs on my other phone. Debating if I should get my book.

Final - Avs 5-2

I can't believe this goal was even controversial. How on earth could you justify calling this goalie interference? Some salty devils fans man.

6 wins in 17 games. This is starting to get ugly now.

Pretty worried about the offense and the ability to close out games.

Since Mikko and Landy came back, Burakowski has lost his magic and since coming back from injury Makar hasn't been his potent self.

Makar actually had a fantastic game last night. His best one since coming back from injury, so I'm less worried there.

True about Bura, and our "depth" in general, but again I'm less worried about the offense in general. The big problem we have right now is goaltending. Grubs is struggling to hit a .900 save percentage over his last 9 games or so. That's a huge problem.

We also have a ridiculous PP scheme. Last year the strategy was to move east/west between Mikko and Nate, and now the strategy seems to control at the blue line and dish to Nate for a one-timer and it's just not working.

Really nice of Chubb, but those jerseys are ugly.

They played all 3 periods tonight and had a great night.
