What the F**K was De Haan thinking going down to block a shot like that released from the point and he is in front of the net???? Guy could have died tonight. Major props for the balls but please, dude, never again.
A bad 1st period but an utterly dominant 2nd and 3rd which saw the Avs outshoot LA 20-5, out-chance them 18-5, and out-chance them high danger 8-2.
A well deserved win.

Very nice win just beautiful for the beloved Avalanche gg Georgiev awesome Nichushkin Drouin and Wood return next game go Avs go.
Anyway, how we feelin’ about Mikko now?
What a f***ing TERRIBLE hockey game. God I have to always be reminded why I hate the Kings so much. After so much bitching and posturing about how much the players hated McLellan’s trap, they switch coaches and play an even more lifeless form of hockey. I hope they lose every game they play from here on out but not before they trade away their first rounder in some dumb desperation move.
Mittelstadt’s worst game of the season and it’s not even close. Weak and indecisive all night, didn’t like anything he did out there.
George was fine tonight apart from the usual bad rebound control. It’s nice he didn’t even have to make a save in the entire second period.
Sure looks like the team actually DID make some adjustments after that shitty first period so that’s nice. So, not the prettiest win but they all count the same. Looking forward to some guys getting back in.

I'm really not buying these stats anymore. How is the goals saved -1.08? There's no way he or 90% of NHL goalies are stopping that 2nd goal after Toews' two miscues.

Oh I know. I just meant that G can't cover all of his mistakes in YOLO moments. Toews would be just about the same there.
65 games left in the regular so I'd say ~72 games give or take a game or two.
He'll get caught in the playoffs again but you know what, I'm ready for the heartbreak once again!

When is the next drug test?
It'll be probably around game 4 of the first or second round of the playoffs.
Also, Sam Malinski has been our 3rd best Dman so far this year and it hasn't been close.
He really is Makar lite in the offensive zone with his moves and ability to hang onto the puck to create... And honestly, his defensive game has improved so much from last year. Still needs to get better particularly at playing the body in some situations, but man I think he's going to have a pretty solid NHL career. Honestly wouldn't rule out him becoming a Top 4 guy some day for some team.

I’m not a Mikko hater. He is a really talented winger. Top 5 in the NHL. He plays the game lazy, which is frustrating.
Especially so when he played a decent back checking game in his first 2 years when he was young and cheap. Players like him and Mack learn to conserve their energy when they can and save it only for offensive opportunities. It frustrates me but it is what it is.

As posted earlier, fourth multi-goal game for Rants, which is more than any other player in the league. Also the only player with two hat tricks.
Personally I think he’s been on plenty this year.
Bednar threw Wagner out for some big d-zone faceoffs just for him to go 0-6.
It’s worth the frustration.
And I’m willing to bet a lot of stars out there would drive us up the wall a lot of nights.

Kopitar and Danault alone pretty guarantee your team will start with the puck over half the time no matter who’s on the other side.

3 straight wins and the cavalry arrives on Friday night.
Feels good.
Won’t last long, somebody will die, but let’s enjoy it for now.

I fully expect Makar’s leg to just pop off during the opening faceoff, and for Nuke to be snorting rails while on the bench
