Other than the Mikko chance there the PP has been bad

Metallo · 2024-10-05T21:31:15-0400

Girard gonna fight those midget before he leaves the arena.

forsbergavs32 · 2024-10-05T21:32:08-0400

Did they just show a girl drinking beer out of her prosthetic leg?

wayninja · 2024-10-05T21:34:37-0400

I'm confident Colorado will finally capitalize

0/5 on the pp?

I know preseason means nothing, but holy shit this team looks Nuked

Metallo · 2024-10-05T21:37:46-0400

I dunno what's going to happen when the games start counting but our offense looks anemic.

Who won the shootout? My stream stopped after Maccelli attempt

This preseason has been a chore.

It's been real bad and I know pre-season doesn't mean anything but this team is stale.

Should send Ritchie back to win a championship in junior so that this anemic offence doesn’t rub Off on him

I was trying to say this in another thread, but I just think the Avs need a new look. We need to be able to beat teams with more than one line.

Bednar really needs to get Mikko and Mitts together and tell them, the second line is yours, make it work. Put the pressure on Mikko and see how he responds. He takes it well and it works, and you give him that big fat juicy deal during the season to keep him happy and you go with it. If he doesn't...maybe that alters the math, maybe it doesn't. But we've got to eventually get consistent offense coming from more than just the top unit.

Stop making sense, this is not how the Avs operate.

London will smash the Generals in the final yet again.

London might be able to beat some AHL teams.

(Hyperbole but y’all get my point)

If there's anything that the 16-17 season taught us, it's that preseason success means everything

I was thinking about this the other day, and I kinda agree.

The problem seems 2 fold to me.

1. Other teams know how the Avs play to a T. Bednars been with us for what? 8 years? He's an amazing coach, but he's been here a loooong time. The Avs only know 1 way to create offense, with a high tempo, high skill, off the rush type of game. If teams take that away they get frustrated really quick.

2. The players themselves seem somewhat bored and/or complacent with the same style/coach. Especially the guys who have been with Bednar a long time like Mack/Rants, Makar, Toews, Girard, etc. Its like the go thru the motions a little bit.

I dunno I hope Bednar does some tweaks this year to the overall game play and lines as well. We have become a bit stale/predictable imo.

BrickNHL · 2024-10-05T23:48:04-0400

London Knights are the GOATS
