GDT: Avs @ Habs

[Bill Peckerskull]

Should have been up 7-1, but hit 3 posts/crossbars, and miss another high on a breakaway, and then stop playing up 4-1, and likely gonna lose in regulation.

Complacency is our biggest enemy. Playing soft with that 3 goal lead was just asking for the comeback. Makar and MacK are two of the biggest offenders too.

Appaling that Bednar didn't call a timeout at 4-3.

They had a TV time out, what's a time out would've done?

 

[Vaslof]

I'm going to give them props for f*** all. Two absolutely shitty goals let in by Blackwood, nothing else. Stop blaming the team, this is on the goalie.

Habs have gotten like 10 dangerous chances in 5 minutes.

 

[Ncit3]

Does Beds actually coach in game?

Didn’t you see Mack telling him to shut up when they came back from commercial earlier? I doubt the team listens to him.

 

[missionAvs]

This ain't on Blackwood

It is to an extent. Look at goals 3 and 4. Not good enough. The team hasn't been good enough either but BBW has let in 2 softies.

Dude does not know what that is...

 

[LOFIN]

Habs have gotten like 10 dangerous chances in 5 minutes.

And have scored on two VERY low danger ones.

Bl4ckwood.

 

[jabubenice]

were are the leaders??

 

[BoneCherry]

Our controller got disconnected. We need to plug it back in fast.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

The amount of pressure plays they’re giving up and the lack of skating and standing around is pathetic. Again, it’s on the goddamn skaters hanging their goalies out to dry.

Yeah, I ain't mad. Disappointed a bit, but not mad at Blackwood. Just commenting that there are a few of those that he'd probably like a second chanced at.

I'm much easier on goalies than most around here though. Until a certain point. Georgiev is the first goalie I've actively wanted the Avalanche to get rid of in a long, long, long time.

Tonight... I think the Avs skated to that 4-1 lead and Blackwood probably lost some focus and as the team started to turtle (poorly, once again) it caught him off-guard. This should not be a 4-4 game. But I actually do have to credit Montreal for not quiting. If they win this, bully for them!

 

[missionAvs]

Just hold for the Dallas point please.

 

[the_fan]

I think this is where we need the healthy blueline. Manson and Girard would help closing out games

 

[jabubenice]

Someone was crying earlier that we need to be challenged... well, here we are

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Multiple penalties ignored there

 

[a mangy Meowth]

We'll be lucky to get a point tonight

 

[the_fan]

Just get a point. Been saying that a lot lately

 

[Arch angel]

Pull the Goalies you cowards!

 

[AvsCOL]

Undoubtedly the worst game I’ve seen from Nichushkin in a long time. Everything is just bouncing off his stick

 

[a mangy Meowth]

Just get a point. Been saying that a lot lately

Have we though? 9-1-1 in last 11 games

This game though? Call 9-1-1

How's this?

It's not the goalie who let opponent team 100% control the game. All he can do is try to make saves.

Ok Mr. Guenin

It's not the goalie who let opponent team 100% control the game. All he can do is try to make saves.

Then he should f***ing make them, instead of letting in two easy ones.
