No amount of alcohol will stop me from getting drunk

Herculean effort to beat a terrible team. Still, sigh of relief.

 

[Metallo]

Dostal was absolutely incredible.

That wraparound save on Rantanen might’ve been one of the best saves of the season.

Got beat, recovered and used his glove on the inside of the post for leverage and to push himself off across to make the toe save.

I could watch that save a thousand times.

Meh. Missed opportunity by Mikko, the whole far side was open and he shot right on him.

The had to give everything they had to keep the puck away from Georgiev to get a win against the Ducks

 

[sethro109]

I’m protesting tomorrow.

Mitts definitely deserved more recognition.

[HockeyFan100]

All we need is 47+ shots and less than 20 shots allowed. This is very sustainable.

And still took OT to win LOL gotta love this team

 

[Balthazar]

Herculean effort to beat a terrible team.

Yea kinda scary

 

[dahrougem2]

Btw any of you living in Denver need to send in complaints to Altitude tonight.

There's no way this f****ing goof can sing Feliz Navidad that disgustingly and get away with it.

And it still almost wasn’t enough…

 

[The Kingslayer]

Perhaps the Ducks will trade us Gibson if we agree to never make Dostal work this hard for the duration of Gibson's contract.

F*** me that guy is good. There's no way he isn't the starter even upon Gibson's return.

Yah Dostal is legit. f*** if the Avs had a goalie like that they could actually make it far in a season but instead they have f***giev

Ridiculous take.

 

[The Merchant]

lol this game went to OT

 

[sethro109]

Meh, not that scary. Dostal played out of his mind.

I posted about how analytics were close after the 1st - boy did that change.

All situations tonight:

Shot Attempts 99-59 Avs
Shots on Goal 49-19 Avs
Scoring Chances 49-35 Avs
High Danger Chances 28-10 Avs
xGF 5.57(!!!) - 2.71 Avs

Dostal was unreal

 

[LurkerMcgee]

Mitts definitely deserved more recognition.

Yes!! He plays so well and gets “punished” when bedsy changes lines. Mitts is a bright spot in the so far black hole of a season. Finally a win. Cup or bust ?

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Yea kinda scary

A 3rd round pick goalie making 800k stood on his head against us.

Thoughts?

 

[henchman21]

3 years behind the trend.

 

[Markster]

A 3rd round pick goalie making 800k stood on his head against us.

Thoughts?

At least we didn't lose to a Zamboni driver.

 

[MonsterMack]

Ridiculous take.

I kind of disagree. Great save of course, but if Mikko tucked it even minutely he would have scored. Puck's trajectory was close to the opposite post.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

F*** you 4giev, you don't deserve that W added to your career totals

 

[forsbergavs32]

And we all know Bednar is gonna praise Georgiev for this

 

[JudoKoala]

Love those stupid Twitter posts Altitude is putting up during intermissions and postgame. Imagine if they started doing that with HFAvs posts? "The Kingslayer says, 'I hope Georgiev dies.' Gosh, Ryker, the Internet denizens are passionate tonight!"

 

[Balthazar]

A 3rd round pick goalie making 800k stood on his head against us.

Thoughts?

We suck at drafting and neglected the position for years?
What am I supposed to say?

 

[dahrougem2]

I kind of disagree. Great save of course, but if Mikko tucked it even minutely he would have scored. Puck's trajectory was close to the opposite post.

Not possible for Mikko to tuck it in there at the speed he was going. He would have had to slow down, and that would have allowed Dostal the half-second needed to recover and get to the far post.
