Welcome to HF-Ave where you'll find intellectual conversations such as, eating ass, tickling Prostate, erecting Wood and of course Smegma. It's fun for the whole family!

I only show up for the pizza talk

I hope Bednar doesn't start milking him for games too quickly. I mean when you have a big backup and he gets worked like that, eventually he'll get pounded by some experienced group and he's going to feel drained.

I would go back to George against the Jets and see if he can elevate his game knowing that he could lose his crease to Pros for a bit here if he continues to let in softies.

I kind of think the opposite. Give Prosvetov the Jets since he’s playing well then go to Georgiev the next night to see if he can build some confidence against the Sharks.
 


Looks about right. All the lines looked good EXCEPT the third line, Miles Wood goal aside they were scary to watch tonight.

Holy shit was Nichushkin on a mission tonight especially the first. He REALLY wanted that goal.

Phenomenal game from Sam Malinski.

Lastly, much more emotional than I thought it was going to be with EJ’s return. Good guy who I hope comes back to work for the Avs when it’s all over.
 
Can we have a 2nd line? This team would be so good if they had one

TBH, come playoff time if we're healthy (including Lando) and we get playoff RyJo we should look pretty good. I'd like someone more consistent than RyJo but I don't foresee them moving him and just trading for him.

Lehk - Mack - Mikko
Lando - RyJo - Nuke
Drouin - Colton - LOC
Wood - Olofsson - Cogs

Kivi, Tatar, Meyers, MacDermid

Byram - Makar
Toews - Manson
Girard - Malinski

JMFJ, Jones, Hunt

Would like to see a bit better 8th D in case of injuries but I think it would be a pretty good lineup.

To be clear, that line was actually not the problematic one tonight.
What line? Do the Avs even have a 2nd line? It seems like they only have 1st, 3rd and 4th lines. And it’s been a while, not just few games. I really don’t notice a 2nd line out there for the Avs

If you’re referring to the 27-12-90 line that one was actually not bad tonight. It was that line that set up Malinski’s goal. It was the third line of 28-20-25 that got gobsmacked all over the ice. Now, they too scored a goal, but apart from that one highlight they were mostly bad in this game.
 
Missed this one and just watched the extended highlights and EJ tribute. Man I got a bit teary eyed watching the EJ thing. The f***ing Condor. Gave us his all and I'm so happy that he got his cup with us. We're going to have to bring him back for a retirement deal sort of thing. That man must retire an Av. As far as the game is concerned, we won. Pack your shit up and go win the next one too. Fire Bednar AND George.
 
Also, that Sabres goal is so Avs. Another late period breakdown which results in a goal against. I'm concerned with the 5th goal where MacK threads the needle on a pass over to Nuke for the easy goal. That's just going to reinforce his whole passing through traffic thing he seems to do on the PP so often. Nuke looked like a man possessed from what I saw. Great to see Malinski get one as well. Hopefully we have something with him because this team really needs a good righty back on D not named Makar.
