GDT: Avalanche vs Golden Knights 11/27/24 @8ish PM. (Emergency GDT) American Turkey Day Eve.

Nuke said f*** the interview and bolted.

Have to always be on the move so they can't test you.

 

[Metallo]

I liked some of the bottom sixers: Ivan, Wood, Kivi all had good energy.

Nuke said f*** the interview and bolted.

He saw that they had a piss cup in their hands. Guy's already left Ball Arena and was last seen at the airport in a trench coat wearing sunglasses.

 

[AvsMakar08]

But can Bo burn be the next captain

Damn I wish we could trade for Byram in 2-3 years from now. Such a likeable player and a perfect player to play with Makar on the line.

 

[Metallo]

A win with one team point, Nuke's goal. Pretty rare.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Anyone know what happened to Kylington? I heard Moser mention him not being on the bench towards the end of the 3rd

 

[myperbixhurts]

What kind of a win was this. It’s in shootout and no Makar point?

No…. We didn’t win this game at all

 

[AvsMakar08]

Why cant we find goalers like Aden Hill?

 

[wayninja]

Never in doubt

Its frustrating.


There's a legitimate powerhouse team here, just cant figure out the goaltending at all so far. But you get Colton back in a couple more weeks and hopefully Drouin as well, you really could have 4 fantastic lines, especially if Bedsy really is going to keep Mikko and Mack split up and let the chemistry develop a little with the new lines:


Lehky - Mack - Nuke
Drouin - Mitts - Mikko
LOC - Colton - Kovalenko
Wood - Kelly - Ivan
Kivi

That is legitimately 4 really solid lines, and hell Kivi as your 13th forward is a pretty good spot to be in also. The defense is solid as well with Malinski establishing himself as a legit #5 IMO, probably just need one upgrade on CDH/Kyllington really.


But the damn goaltending needs to be the focus. Its encouraging that Georgiev has put together ~3-4 good starts in a row now(The Tampa game the other day I dont even blame him or care about his results that much), but Annunen is clearly a problem either way and they need to give George a legitimate challenger or at least good backup.

Personally I really, really still wish they would just go get Gibson. Even if George is their guy right now and ends up bouncing back big time this year, Gibby would be a top quality backup and fantastic insurance into the playoffs, then if we let George walk next year like we have the rest of our goalies you've got Gibson to start.


And none of this is even accounting for Landy, who I still really think will be back at some point and I'm actually of the believe its more about playing cap games right now then it's actually been about a Landy setback.

 

[Mitchgou]

Still not sure about the trend that they cant play in the first period, then wake up and just dominate after.

 

[AvsMakar08]

3rd star: Hill

2nd star: Nuke

1st star: Cocaine

Insert Georgiev in there because he made some nice saves.

 

[sethro109]

This game wasn't close at all. Vegas had 10 shots the final 45 minutes.

This should have been an easy regulation win if not for Adin Hill.

If that's the Hill team Canada gets, they're going to massacre the competition.

 

[dahrougem2]

Mack hates him, so it isn't worth it, get it off the team.

I'm sure the win makes the entire team feel like weak bitches because anything Nuke does is bad.

You all are f*** tards for that narrative, just saying, and I'm gonna say eat a dick for it. Don't celebrate the win, you don't deserve to unless you're a hypocrite.

Everyone who talked that shit deserves to eat that dick. Especially if you are celebrating the win right now.

I can celebrate a win and say f*** Val Nichushkin at the same time, and I will not stop saying f*** Val Nichushkin until he proves he can make it through the season.

 

[CobraAcesS]

Nuke is awesome

Just saying..

 

[myperbixhurts]

Who is Chase Bradley?

 

[CobraAcesS]

You're just a bitch focused on the past

Weakness is for those who hold their heart in what was, and not what is..

He just won that game lol. Your inability to give him credit is just an inability to move on from something he just urinated on.

Just saying lol

 

[Metallo]

The real difference maker is Nuke's dealer coming through in the first intermission.

 

[AvsMakar08]

Nichushin will be just fine. He is a changed man. Sakic and MacK welcomed him back with open arms.

 

[forsbergavs32]

In his 7 minutes of ice time I didn’t think Chase Bradley looked out of place. Good speed and forechecking. I did want to see some of the physicality Ryker mentioned but we know Bednar will coach that out of him anyway.

 

[wayninja]

Nuke has as many goals as he has daggers in the back of this team, so the idea that a win tonight is some kind of redemption is hilarious.

f*** that guy. He owns every joke and every slight he gets.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Insert Georgiev in there because he made some nice saves.

No.

 

[willy702]

Nuke can be a game changer if we want to win the cup.

Ya think? We ain't winning the Cup without him. His history makes that pretty obvious. Sucks to have to worry about him making it through the playoffs but no way they win two series without him at full speed.

Hey, you never know. Nuke can be given an A on his jersey in a few years for showing a good example of overcoming substance abuse issues and by being a core player of our team.
