Avs @ Mild | 6pm MT | Saving Royisalegend from himself

Someone get me some advance stat chart thing that validates my feeling that Sam Malinski sucks.
You’re going to be sorely disappointed.



This might be easier to read.

Minnesota had like 7 shots on net by mid second period. The chart makes no sense. It's makes it look like Minnesota was dominating and clearly better and we were lucky which doesn't match the eye test. I thought we buried our looks but the game itself was fairly even or even slightly in our favor.
It does when you remember that the few times they did get a shot on goal, it was a high danger chance. IMO the Avs did a good job of puck possession but an absolutely lousy job in the defensive zone, especially protecting the middle of the ice. Way, way too often they just let guys walk right in on Blackwood. Luckily he was up for it.

Milds had like 1 shot attempt which I thought was dangerous since they basically had Blackwood beat passing behind him laterally but it was deflected from Minny stick and failed. Yes you can argue that whacking infront of Blackwood couple times are dangerous but they are like dangerous for Georgiev level attempts.

I really dont get the idea how Minny should have won that game 60%. Avs had multiple slot shots behind a screen so what gives..

f***ing Frail. Guy is allergic to being the best defenseman in the world.

Josh Manson was absurd last night lol

His 2 on 1 assist on the shorty to Lehky was bananas lol. I scared my wife because I yelled "NO HE DID NOT" when he just turned on the afterburners and dished the puck over to Lehky.

There were some absolutely HORRID defensive breakdowns last night, the few times the Wylde got a shot on goal it was right there in the slot area. Blackwood had to make multiple heroic saves that would've beaten Georgiev and Annunen very easily. When they're on their game the Avs usually keep those kinds of shots to bad angles. That's not what happened last night.

The breakdown that led to their only goal was just one of them, no one was stopping guys from getting to the middle of the ice, like, at all. They did a good job of keeping the puck away in the attacking zone, but once the puck was in the defensive zone, holy shit.
