GDT: Avs @ Blues | 5pm MT | Non-Emergency Emergency GDT

[expatriatedtexan]

Is it time for the return of Joe Sacco?

Someone needs to be paying attention to our starts.

 

[NOTENOUGHRYJOTHINGS]

Team gonna be missing the entire second pairing and half the top 6 in the yoffs too. That's just how they do it.

 

[Balthazar]

Lehky has his worst stretch as an Av and it's not close, I wonder if he's injured. Also Nuke has completely stopped producing.

 

[Pokecheque]

Just not gonna win a game against a team like this with one half of the top six wingers out with injury and the other half playing like crap. Lehkonen just doesn’t look right at all. That giveaway at the end there…WTF.

Just…not good enough from anyone. At least Colton and Wood came up big.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

On a bright side, Kucherov didn’t gain any ground on Nate today. Bolts going to shootout, Kucherov has just one point

2 games in hand. You know he will go crazy in those and win the Art Ross.

 

[dahrougem2]

I'd rather lose 0-4 than going through that bull shit. Can't have some guys that want the comeback, and others that want to just piss off.

Meh, I'll always rather the team show heart and attempt to claw back.

They were undone by poor PKing and an extremely poor performance from the top line and especially top D pair. Makar and Toews were awful. Worst I have ever seen Makar look.

 

[mackinnon29]

Played like dogshit all game and nearly came back from 4-0 against a blues team that’s won 12 in a row. Comes back to poor defensive game, can’t have that shit come playoff time

[sethro109]

Nichushkin - 24:26 TOI, 6 shots on goal

Lehkonen - 22:01 TOI, 4 shots on goal

Combined for 0 goals 0 assists and 0 points.

These two guys are ice cold.

Lehkonen has been shit for 10+ games now. He needs to figure his shit out. He's not the forechecking monster he used to be. Now he just glides in the middle of the ice hoping MacK gets him the puck.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

Decent game from Beevis and Butthead though.

 

[missionAvs]

2 games in hand. You know he will go crazy and in those and win the Art Ross.

Easily too. MacK will lose out on the Art Ross by double digits. Not a doubt in my mind. I'm never wrong with regards to stuff like this.

Me too, but I want it to be the whole team. Not just 4 or 5 guys. MacK didn't playing until five minutes left in the game. And Makar never got off the bus tonight. And Lehky....

 

[the_fan]

Val and Lehky saving their goals for the playoffs. I’m not worried

 

[Balthazar]

Played like dogshit all game and nearly came back from 4-0 against a blues team that’s won 12 in a row.

A big reason for that was the Blues sitting on a 4-0 lead, which is normal. That's why I don't pay too much attention to the SOG either.

 

[LOFIN]

Decent game from Beevis and Butthead though.

Nice to see them step up when it matters f*** all

 

[AvsWraith]

Blackwood was also shit. Gave them no hope in that first period.

 

[sethro109]

We're going to play Vegas. We might as well just accept that. This team is too injured and doesn't care enough to fend off the blues.

I have nothing else to cheer for until the playoffs. It’s only the Nate race for the Art Ross. Cale has the Norris locked up so… Cheering for the Ross and Avs staying healthy

 

[dahrougem2]

5v5 numbers since special teams was ass:

Scoring Chances 26-15 Avs
High Danger Chances 11-7 Avs
xGF 2.65 - 1.59 Avs

Blues did what they needed to defensively to secure the win.

Avs finish the season 1-3-0 vs the Blues

 

[AvsCOL]

Vesey is absolutely horrendous. Why was he even a throw in to that trade lmao

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Blackwood was also shit. Gave them no hope in that first period.

He was also shit against Columbus, but the difference is that the Blue Jackets aren’t the Blues.

 

[Balthazar]

Blackwood was also shit. Gave them no hope in that first period.

Blackwood, Nuke, Lehky....then Girard vanished...what happened to that team during that East coast trip?

 

[drhiii]

Blackwood was also shit. Gave them no hope in that first period.

Didn't see first 2 p. How many bad goals?

 

[forsbergavs32]

Eh, whatever. Finish the season with no more injuries and get the others back for the playoffs.

 

[Avs44]

Blackwood, Nuke, Lehky....then Girard vanished...what happened to that team during that East coast trip?

Nuke them out for a special night
