GDT: Caps @ Avs | 7pm MT | Mittelstadt Gets His Wings

[MonsterMack]

Top line looks disjointed

Normally I would make some remark about how I don't need to know his name since I don't need to know the names of every ahler. But at this rate Trent Miner may get into 25 games.

It's important to know because he yearns for the mines but is forced to play mediocre goaltender

Unlike you, I can claim to have seen both Georgiev and Kähkönen play head to head on three levels. And Kähkönen was better at each level. And the stats back this up too.

Who the f*** cares about literally any level but the NHL, where George is very clearly superior

Top line looks disjointed

MacK and Mikko keep putting each other offsides.

 

[wayninja]

Caps really disciplined with all these penalties

 

[jani]

Get off the ice Sammy!

I see we are comparing shit and vomit now

 

[LOFIN]

Who the f*** cares about literally any level but the NHL, where George is very clearly superior

Based on what statistic?

 

[Balthazar]

Is this bad?

TOI

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

Avs D consistently losing the battles on the boards and keep ins at the blue line.

Caps are excelling at body positioning, angling and rub outs. Avs not able to get any sort of speed and flow going.

Avs decision making is hesitant and out of synch.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Just f***ing put Drouin with MacK.

Why are we trying to reinvent the wheel…

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Based on what statistic?

Literally all of them

 

[LOFIN]

TOI

Yeah, that. Because it's not saved goals above expected, not save percentage or whatever.

Can we just burn down the goalie position and trade for two brand new players. It’s pathetic.

 

[missionAvs]

Honestly really f***ing pissed off that this crap. I really hate these scrub ass goalies we have.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

Just f***ing put Drouin with MacK.

Why are we trying to reinvent the wheel…

I can't count the number of times Bednar's lines have completely left me bewildered. But the dude is a Stanley Cup Champion HC and I'm a dude who didn't really even start skating until he turned 50. Think I should learn to trust him but man, I just don't understand it.

 

[The Abusement Park]

Literally all of them

Remember that one time Kahkonen was top 10 in Vezina voting? Oh wait...

 

[sethro109]

Get off the ice Sammy!

G or Malinski? Both have looked bad tonight. At least G has a point though.

 

[dahrougem2]

Top line looks horrendous tonight. Constantly hemmed in their own zone chasing pucks

 

[The Merchant]

Not sure that the Avs have set up and cycled in the offensive zone a single time tonight at 5v5. Caps shutting down the rush without much much issue

 

[Snow Arc]

It's important to know because he yearns for the mines but is forced to play mediocre goaltender

They should have given him the number 49. Shame on them.

 

[RECKLESS]

The guy who also has allowed 1 goal on 2 shots tonight?

Up to 87% now.

Good enuff.

 

[MonsterMack]

If workhorse Nuke only existed because he was the human embodiment of Cocaine Bear I'm gonna be so disappointed.
