Tonight's game jam:

Journey - Don't Stop Believin' (Official Audio)​

To give @RoyIsALegend some peace of mind, I edited Colton's and Kivi's spots. I would also be surprised if Malinski isn't back in. So take that lineup with a big grain of salt.

No Kaprizov = Free points

With the login issues persisting, I will also be absent for this GDT. I also tried logging in with a different browser on my PC and still had no luck. So if this browser decides to log me out.... Remember me HFAvs. Build a thread in my honor.

We've lost!

 

[Vaslof]

We've lost!

Hey don't try to counter-jinx me. We win easy game. Minny won't make the playoffs. Shutout shutout shutout.

[Peter Peckerwood]

21-7 Avs with a late TD by green filth

 

[Valushkin]

We've lost!

Yes!!!

This is gonna be a tough game to win. 6 game win streak at home, going on the road to play in 2nd of the back to back against a Wild team who is rested and chasing the Avs.

I’m expecting a loss, will be pleasantly surprised if we win

I love it when we agree!!!

 

[Gruyeriev]

Why is Vegas Golden Showers not an option on the poll? They are the worst!

 

[NOTENOUGHRYANTHINGS]

The winner gets a stacked Dallas team in round 1.

The loser falls to wildcard two and may have to face the dynasty Oilers.

 

[Gruyeriev]

No Brodin, Erickson EK or Kaprizov?

Wild 5-0

The winner gets a stacked Dallas team in round 1.

The loser falls to wildcard two and may have to face the dynasty Oilers.

Tough choice. I would love to knock Dallas out in the first round though!

 

[Avs425]

F*ck the Wild

 

[AllAboutAvs]

I don't care if we are on a B2B with the injuries they have we better win this game.

 

[a mangy Meowth]

It's really really funny to me to watch Dallas fans falling over themselves to try to defend Rantanen in this whole melodrama

Many of these posters are individuals I've seen trash him in the not so distant past. The Dallas mod LT is definitely the funniest one of them lol - who thought it was a good idea to give that child any power?

 

[Avs2022]

Please tell me Wood isn't playing. Put Kelley back in.

 

[flyfysher]

Please tell me Wood isn't playing. Put Kelley back in.

You know, I want JB to try different personnel and lines in order to determine what might work best in a given situation. JB did that in the last couple of weeks in April back in 2022 instead of going for the President’s Cup again.

 

[GeoRox89]

Feels like you’d need it to be the Stars without Duchene and Benn for this poll to be competitive

 

[AvsMakar08]

I don't know if Kaprizov likes or does not like to live next to the Colorado River but what if he does not want to re-sign with Wild. If we can trade Colton, Wood and Manson then maybe we can try to sign Kaprisun. We would be unstoppable, even better then your Crosby's or Drai.

 

[AvsFan29]

Is Nuke in the lineup? We win

 

[RoyIsALegend]

 

[Gatorbait19]

Yo all I gotta say is f*** THE WILD

 

[Valushkin]

We should have put Malinski, LOC and Kelly in the lineup to have fresh players for this one

 

[CaleMakaw]

Would have voted vegas. But dallas will do too I guess.
