JMFJ smiled more and moved more easily. De Haan can barely move but moans a lot. Not much between them.

I think the best thing to do is just hold Landy out until the playoffs. We've actually got a team that with a 3C upgrade and a 3rd pair LD we can make some real noise. That's even if Landy doesn't come back during the playoffs. Sacrificing that in any way without having certainty on Landy's ability would just be unwise.

Landy would probably hit me straight in the mouth for saying this, but I think he's going to be doing a shit ton of skating on his own until the playoffs. I really don't think anyone in the NHL will be upset if Gabe all of sudden showed up for Game 1 of the playoffs and I'm kind of expecting it to go that way this season.

How many years are we gonna say this lol

He's 33 and has been in the league forever, he isn't going to get better puck skills. He is what he is.

That's not true. We aren't asking him to get faster or skate differently. It's a skill, and usually improves with a skills coach.

It's a matter of spending that extra time to refine those skills.

"Colorado coach Jared Bednar said there’s an illness going through the room. … Blackwood will make his Avalanche debut after he was acquired in a trade with the San Jose Sharks on Monday."

Good thing we let Blackwood practice and sit on the bench last game while sick.

He is only 33.....

He is only 33.....

Only be playing the game for 25 years at an elite level. Obviously if he practices harder with the right coach he's going to learn how to make tape to tape passes

am I right @dahrougem2 ?

No sickness will get developed that fast. Blackwood literally met with the team on the morning of the game.
