The Colorado Avalanche are down 2-1 after 1 period to the Bruins.

They've given up 22 goals in 10 periods of hockey this season. They've allowed at least one goal in every period. They've given up 2 or more in 7 periods.

You hate to see it.

I'm going to start calling them the Crapalanche.

I dare you.

Meanwhile, two more goals allowed in the first 10 minutes of the 2nd Period. 4-1 Bruins. Georgiev is absolutely cooked.

Avs losing 4-1 lol

Now down 4-1. Gave up 2 13 seconds apart. Georgiev has actually played pretty well, too, honestly. Boston has just pounded chance after chance on him.

EDIT:Side note, Eddie O might legitimately be high in the booth. He’s always kind of a goofball, he’s seriously out to lunch right now.

The advanced stats suggest otherwise: -2.07 GSAx in half a game.

Should’ve prefaced that I’ve only seen the second period. The two goals he allowed this period weren’t on him and he’s made several great stops.

Only if you double dog dare me.

Refalanche make it a one goal game

Wood acting like Stevens caught him with his head down

 

[Spektre]

A major???? Wtf for a shoulder to shoulder hit????

 

[Spektre]

Avs should really just be renamed the Colorado Diving p***y’s

 

[Spektre]

Avs lose even with the help from the refs

 

[ChicagoBlues]

Crapalanche

Crapalanche

That’s Crapalanche hockey baby

 

[PocketNines]

I think what happened in that one is Marchand dove so hard against Rantanen and of course the ref fell for it, not long after refs missed an accidental but definite high sticking penalty, that the Avs literally decided to do extra embellishments. First there was the shoulder to shoulder writher Wood. He nearly died on the ice, the arena went deathly silent but he was ok. Then either Coyle crosschecked an Av in the dick or near enough that he could fake it, but either way he looked like he was dying in real time on the ice, but turned out he was fine a shift or so later

I'm really, really surprised that Georgiev was in net again last night. He clearly doesn't have it right now and I don't think that playing him at home over and over is the way for him to get it back. He's been awful, but has started all 4 of their games so far.

Can't wait for the first Detroit - Buffalo matchup. I really can't tell which team is worse. Leaning towards Detroit being worse, at least the Sabres have a little bit of hope in goal and on defense. Detroit is just a mess.

 

[MissouriMook]

Who would have thought Calgary would be 4-0 and Vancouver, Edmonton, Colorado and Nashville would be a combined 1-11-2?

Every time I ask when it's okay to start scrutinizing Yzerman I get blasted. I'm still curious.

I've regularly defended the Yzerplan, but I think maybe he is being a little too much of a hard ass. This is based on gut and on reports that he is centrally looking for character guys and guys who have that Red Wings mentality, whatever that is.

My managerial style is that of a hard ass with unrealistic expectations, but I'm ex-military, soooo...

Yzerman is stone cold focused and is not settling for less, but this is a new age, a new day and he may be missing the plot.

All in all, they've improved in points each season he's been at the helm.
