Jesus Dunn.

Avs controlling the play...Blues need to start attacking in 5-man units

 

[Bye Bye Blueston]

Gonna be a long short season, but Avs are gonna be team we are measured against. They are favorites for a reason.

 

[Bye Bye Blueston]

I don’t like that call.

Bortuzzo takes a questionable shot, then at the other end he covers the puck with his hand in the crease!

Dunn.....Hhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Parayko looked like the only guy trying to get that puck out. Everyone else just standing around.

I was hesitant to point it out, but I have noticed his partner, (Krug), puck watching when the play is deep in our zone.

 

[Xerloris]

Well that's an interesting take on what "covering" means.

 

[AjaxManifesto]

Didn't see the penalty

 

[Blanick]

For sure, but that only means so much. If the players don't quite fit the style, no amount of coaching up will cover that wart unless Berube changes the style...and if he did that, there would be a whole new set of questions since that would be breaking new ground.

Yeah, I hear you and it is a concern I had myself with some of the changes this offseason but I just keep reminding myself that Berube is going to demand them to be at least defensively responsible. I mean look how far a guy like Vladi has come over the years. He definitely isn't a specialist but I wouldn't say he's a liability either.

I disagree with that penalty. I don't think he closed hand on the puck.

A little basketball

Did Colorado lighten the blue in their unis?

Nice play by Krug, stopping The Avs' attempted entry!

[Robb_K]

And they kill it off!

i think the helmet is off actually, looks a shade too dark

 

[Blanick]

Good kill

 

[AjaxManifesto]

Boys need to get something going

 

[Fitrix]

They took some of the black out and replaced it with blue this year

 

[Blueline2757]

Good kill

It is interesting contrast when you compare it to the "normal" dark jersey and also to the 1995 Avalanche colors.

 

[Veneficus]

Great kill. ROR is so good
