GDT: Avs @ Caps | Soon | Dental Emergency

[forsbergavs32]

Great road win, George was great

 

[katfude]

Ovi woulda made it 2-2 at least

This game proves that Georgiev has talent. The problem that turns him into Fivegiev is between his ears.

 

[missionAvs]

We got a Frail point so this can be counted as a W in my book.

During his first season here I thought he was the best goalie we had since Varly. Better than Gru and Kuemper.

I agree.

Look, he clearly has the highest ceiling. The organization knows that. He’s fast as f***, recovery and lateral movement is elite.

He just also happens to have the lowest floor. Rebound control can be poor. Prone to weak goals and obviously not mentally strong.

It’s a tough situation.

I hope he gets the Big Hat tonight.

Okay...imagine my confusion. I just got home. Told ESPN+ to start the game from the beginning. Somehow when I clicked the GDT thread it took took me to the end and this is the very first post I see.

EPIC GDT, indeed!

No MacK point though. I love Kaprizov even though I hate the Wild, but Nate can’t lose to Art Ross to Krill

Respect to Georgiev. He was fantastic tonight.

Shot Attempts 59-58 Capitals
Shots on Goal 31-27 Capitals
Scoring Chances 31-30 Avalanche
High Danger Chances 18-13 Capitals
xGF 4.47-3.66 Avalanche

Good road win after a bad 1st period.

MacK is checked out. We're trading him at the deadline for Stamkos.

Will they give us Saros too if we include Georgiev?

 

[Pokecheque]

Gah, ugly win but a much-needed one.

Second pairing was victimized tonight. Thankfully Georgiev bailed them out. Repeatedly.

Funny how even after a brilliant performance, Georgiev still managed to piss everyone off with that dumb puckhandling gaffe.

Guess the Avs at least found a fourth line that works!!!

Wedgewood if we include a sweetner like the contact info for Nuke's dealer.

What we really need to do is replace that 90 year old woman’s hip they put in LOC. He can’t do anything out there

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

they lost the hat.

There must have been some iatrogenic damage done to his perbix during the operation. He just can't keep it together out there.

I just threw up. I hope this doesn't trick CMac into thinking our goaltending is good enough going into the playoffs.

Fun game.

Second line continues to be a mess but I didn't think it was going to be instantaneous. I am a bit concerned about Mitts getting beat so easily along the boards the last few games. I really hope he's not nursing something and it's just an adjustment spell he has to get through.

As for the positives, man I thought Georgiev had himself a game tonight. Credit owed where it's due. Tonight he was fantastic when we needed him to be. He'd have been my #1 star.

I also really liked Girard's game. Cale got freaking owned but he's a stud, I'm not worried about him in the least. Caps are good are slowing things down, and that's our kryptonite. The guys ground through it though so, I'm kinda thrilled with the win honestly.
