6-3 dang Jets

 

[HisIceness]

That's a goal but still not sure why Necas' last week in Boston wasn't

 

[3CanesInTheBox]

Am I the only one who would prefer they don’t penalize a bad challenge with a penalty?

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Scrum after scrum, and they give the Avs a PP after this one because they are down.

Edit: and they score.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Georgiev is getting dummied.

 

[Unsustainable]

7-4, lol

 

[Tryamw]

Extra point in the peg

 

[skipnjump]

I guess both teams heard everyone complaining about the boring earlier games and said that they were going to score a lot of goals to shut us up

 

[HisIceness]

Colorado when they're on, they're damn good.

They're not on at the moment.

Man Georgiev needs to be better…. But he is getting zero help from his dmen…. 4 guys around Connor and no one ties up his stick…. Ugh…. That’s ugly….

Neither goalie is getting any help.

Nah, there has to be some negative aspect about doing it, or coaches would just use it like an extra timeout.

which defenseman is he fighting after the game?

 

[htdoc]

Aaaaaaaaaand more interesting officiating blowing the whistle for delayed penalty based off a puck bouncing off a skate??…. That’s possession?

Said it before, damn happy Devils and Flyers passed on Makar in 2017.

But you have said many things

Devils especially. Flyers would've still found a way to squander it with Chuck Fletcher at the helm.

7-6

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

Crazy 1st game for Jets and Avs. I imagine that it has to tighten up relative to this, though. Jets are normally fantastic defensively-speaking, but this was a pure run-and-gun game. Play into Colorado's hands like that and the Avs will have the upper hand.

 

[HisIceness]

TD Colorado but the XP is no good. Jets win

 

[Bub]

Colorado ties it.

Fun Fact: Winnipeg is on a seven-game skid in White Out games.

EDIT: Spoke too soon. 3-2 for the Colorado McKinnons.

Streak broken. Wild game!

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Honestly, I'd be more worried if I were the Jets. Great goaltending from Hellebuck was the main reason they got this far, and the Avs just put up 6 against him.

The Avs knew they had questionable goaltending already, so their performance in net isn't as concerning.

the angle we never got on the Necas goal
