GDT: Avs @ Kraken - 10/22/2024 @ 6:30 PM MST (yet another emergency GDT)

[Pierce Hawthorne]

I'm sure when the eventually trade for Gibson/Blackwood, George will go the other way.

I'm not sure they do that though... That wont really solve the issue either. The issue at the moment is having 3 goalies. Teams hate carrying 3 guys. But I suspect very soon its going to be clear George is the one who needs to go.


I wonder if they could swap George out for someone else who's overpaid but maybe a decent Forward or Dman type.

For example something that immediately jumps into my head for a deal would be Georgiev for Armia in Montreal.

He said last 3 games so goalies

We still gave up 3 goals on 19 shots vs the Ducks. Did we really get saves?

He gives Annunen props. His big in net, reads the plays well, was good in last game that’s why he got the start again today. What else is Bednar supposed to say?

Last 2 games instead of last 3 games

Didn’t Georgiev start against the Ducks?

 

[Avs44]

I think Bednar knows that’s Georgiev has the mental fortitude of a child and requires praise / the illusion that he’s not under threat. Otherwise, look at how pathetic he was in New York, y’know?


Basically, Bednar has to deal with babysitting the guys he has. Georgiev’s continued presence falls on management.

No. 5giev did everything he could to lose that game but Nathan said no.

Good Lord man, chill out. If he’s as high on Georgiev as you seem to think he is, do you really think he would’ve given Annunen the start tonight? You’re reading way too much into an innocuous answer to an innocuous question.

Last 2 games instead of last 3 games

Georgiev was mostly fine against the Ducks.

Bednar is more loyal than any dog you could possibly find. A hopeless case.

Annunen just won him a game but all Bednar can think of is how he can talk up Fivegiev. If it wasn't so sad it would be really funny.

Yeah it's exactly this.

They know what happened with George in New York. They don't want that to happen here.

But his results are going to ultimately force the Avs' hand, and not in a good way.

Not really.

First goal he couldn’t find the puck in his pass

Second goal was a terrible rebound from a long distance wrist shot

Third goal was from a bad angle.

 

[RECKLESS]

Bednar pr talks Georgie up every chance he gets because Georgie is for sale! Ever heard a used car salesman say what a piece of junk he's selling?

Bednar is trying to win games. If that means he has to publicly coddle the higher paid goalie that's what he'll do.

Doesn't mean he secretly thinks Georgie is great.

Doesn't mean he isn't reaming Georgie out in private (although he probably isn't).

So many people want him to say Georgie sucked or Justus was great. What good does that do?

Listen, he may have some hard miles, not very pretty exterior and lunches back and forth but you have to realize this is an IMPORT model! Very rare! Only 2 owners!

Does it really matter what Bednar says as far as giving Georgiev confidence? He’s been bad, everyone knows it, the Avs are looking at trading for a new starter if Friedman’s report is true. Looks like Annunen is taking over as the starter, we also picked up Kahkonen.

At this point, Bednar doesn’t have to say anything because Georgiev is losing the starting job, and he’s gone after this season. It’s not like Bednar needs to be careful with his confidence because Georgiev is gonna be with the Avs for a long time. Right now Annunen is playing much better and it should be his net

Bullshit

This is the NHL, and this is supposed to be a good team. I dont think Bednar does it for that purpose

So we’re gonna pretend we won that Anaheim game because of Georgie now?

Ok cool.

In this fantasy world can I be dating Sydney Sweeney?

Whats the deal with G?

Realistically if the need/want to cut the cap hit G is one of the top candidates. However, he is a good player and not some bum like Georgiev.
