Colorado.

Sucks!

 

[MK9]

Ideally, Colorado blows a 4-0 lead in game 7 at home.

But, this series is going to be very good, and if Tampa wins, its because their goaltending is nowhere close to Tampa's.

Tampa looks like shit.

16 SoG for the game. When was the last time TB had that few shots?

 

[MK9]

Gross. What a waste of an NHL season. F*** the Avs. Always and forever.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Nice.

I was gonna say something about them, but didn't feel like they were worth my first ever timeout. Actually, it'd probably cost me a couple timeouts.

There’s not a single part of me that thinks the Wild can win the cup in the near future

Looks like Kadri might be on the move. Could just sign him to the Wild and have him take out the opposing goalie. Easy cup.

Gonna be tough especially when we have 14mil x 3 years of dead cap, need to get lucky with some cheap talent

Avs with more regular season success and more post season success than the Wild have had in what is arguably the greatest era in Wild hockey 2012-2022.
All while still having more top 5 draft picks in that same time span than the Wild have had in their entire history.

Maybe Craig will finally learn top picks matter.

Tbl looked tired, unskilled, and old.

they didnt look like a good team at all. the Avs speed was just too much for them.

 

[thestonedkoala]

Ugh. The Avs and their fans are going to be insufferable the next twenty years.

 

[Minnewildsota]

Ugh. The Avs and their fans are going to be MORE insufferable the next twenty years.

FIFY

 

[BagHead]

Ugh. The Avs and their fans are going to be insufferable the next twenty years.

Just like the last, eh?

I still feel like it's a vocal minority on HFBoards that are obnoxious, though, and those guys were there even when the Avs sucked. Best to just let their good fans enjoy this Cup, and hate on their obnoxious ones later.

 

[BuiumSaveUs]

Well, the blues were arguably the best team the Avs faced

its not the HF Av fans, its all the other social media outlets where every single post they swarm in and talk even if its not about an Av player.

As much as we dislike the avs you have to admit they were dominant.

No faith in kap putting up 50 points in the playoffs next year? But yes we need some help or some guys to outperform again. On the other hand we went from hoping to make the playoffs to one of the top teams in the west so maybe we are closer than you think.

 

[57special]

Point was sorely missed. Simply not enough skill up front. TBL got carried with acquiring grinders, but they looked ineffective, and Kucherov and Stamkos aren’t enough. Cirelli is a good player, but was used a shutdown role.
Kurmper crrtainly didn’t shine. My son pointed out how bad he is at covering the 5 hole

agreed, credit where credit is due they are fast and skilled and very effective in their game. they were the cup favorites for a reason and they showed it. as landeskog said after the game to the reporter asking what other teams can do to be like the avs, " get a cale makar copy". that dude is ridiculous.
