GDT: Blues @ Avalanche|Round 1, Game 2| Blues down 1-0|

[kreele]

We haven’t been winning face offs all night and they pull Binner before we get control.

 

[TheDizee]

even if blues tied it there, going to OT with 4 d is not good.

chief needs to call out the officiating tonight and the elbow to the head that Jost did to Bortuzzo does not need to be forgotten either.

 

[BlueMed]

Kyrou tripped by Makar. No call.

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Bortuzzo will seek revenge for that elbow he took. I guarantee it.

I hope not in the usual Bortz manner, we don't need a 5min major to kill off

 

[AjaxManifesto]

No worries...we are way too banged up. Maybe not our year.

McKinnon is a beast, but the Avs without him are not Cup winners. He get's injured and they are toast

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

Bortuzzo will seek revenge for that elbow he took. I guarantee it.

he will look to hurt somebody no doubt

 

[simon IC]

Why? WHY? ... would you pull the goalie when you don't have possession?

 

[Robb_K]

Saad barely turned around puts it perfectly into the empty net - releasing without even looking. I bet The Avs practice that a lot, and The Blues don't at all.

 

[BlueMed]

Remember when the blues were up 2-0 on the hawks and we thought we finally had their number?

Yeah but Hossa wasn't sitting at home because of COVID.

lol they aint winning with that goaltending even if the refs keep holdin their hands.

that Hoffman goal was a joke and the Blais goal is something peewee goalies stop. schenn goal he gives up a rebound on a harmless shot from Bozak right to the slot

 

[Oberyn]

Good effort by the Blues but it is what it is

 

[Captain Creampuff]

f***ing sexy Nathan MacKinnon

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

was stupid to pull the goalie when we did ... i know im captain hindsight

The Av's can barely hold off the Blues with 4 D and their leading scorer out.
Any healthy PO team is going to run over them, and a team like Tampa or Vegas is going to slaughter them.
MacKinnon isn't going to stop that.

The Av's are not winning the Cup.

 

[Eldon Reid]

True underdogs now.

Down 2 dman (Most likely)
Down 2 players from COVID
Down another dman from regular season
Down 2-0 in series
Officiating doesn't want to call much on Colorado except one head shot

Time to shock the world.

 

[Borderbluesfan]

Nothing on Bortuzzo getting headshot. No interference on McKinnon??? This game was a joke on officiating. Only reason Kadti called was because of obvious injury to Faulk!!!’

 

[Prosaic]

 

[TheDizee]

its a shame the team took so long to give effort but I liked that 3rd and really the effort from after Blais scored. avs clearly sat back on a 3-0 lead though but that lead was basically gifted to them due to poor officiating (and a dumb penalty by thomas). Need to clear the front of the net better too.

The picks need to be publicly called out by Berube tonight, along with the Jost elbow to Bortozzo's head. The league won't be able to hide from the Kadri hit so I expect him to be done for a while.

When you get that much help, you should not have to struggle to beat a team playing 4 D-men for almost the entire 3rd period. If the Blues get some home cooking like the past 2 shitshows have been, I expect some laugher contests.

Down 6D actually. 4 in last few weeks.

 

[TheDizee]

if Faulk is out for any time, this series is over IMO. he was playin better than 27 was this year.

sad to see a predatory player deliver another cheap shot to knock a player out.

 

[BlueOil]

f***ing sexy Nathan MacKinnon

and his kids in tow

 

[Zachary Hines]

Well not having 2 dmen and being down Walman and Perron. We gave it a solid effort this was much closer than the final would indicate? If faulk and bortz will be out long term than who gets the call? Not to mention Walman out. Santini? Dunn? Also we cant afford these penalties.

 

[Meatball]

Se ya'll next year. Good luck to the Avs.

 

[TheDizee]

yeah i am hoping the Kadri hit does not drown out this BS. Those were just as big of a factor in the outcome.

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

why are the trolls so salty ? .... take your win and move along
