And I would understand it, if Georgiev had taken us to deep playoff runs. But this was f***ing stupid. He doesn't own anything for Georgiev.

Georgiev is too fragile mentally to call out
My guess
He knows others are not good enough. Georgiev has still shown the highest upside/potential. He is his only hope.

If he was too mentally fragile to be called out he wouldn't play in the NHL. He would not be on social media, he would not have stood up for himself when De Angelo gave him shit.
He ran out of genuine Eric Brewer sweat that he would use to increase his playing ability.
I guess it was kind of expected they were going to be rusty and not achieve much, especially against in-form opponent like Caps. Hopefully they get going quickly and nobody else gets hurt. And where is my f***ing Landy? Is it too much to ask to see this team in full strength at last and what they can do? I guess Colton is out anyway…
The other question who the f is Miner and why are we not playing him more often? That was some decent mining in there, going by the numbers.

So what kind of sauce did Mittelstadt get his post-game-wings with? I'm guessing mild.

All coaches have a shelf-life, amd unfortunately for Bednar, we're witnessing him rapidly approach his expiry date. Fortunately for Bednar, the organization is 100% loyal to him, and I won't be shocked to see him here for the duration of his contract. So buckle up folks
As for Girard, he is what he is. He's fantastic at skating the puck out of his zone. He plays mostly well against teams that try to out-skate us. However, any time a team tightens up, plays more physical, forechecks hard or pressures the defensemen's passing lanes, he crumbles. We've seen this time and time again. It's why he has the reputation that he has, especially come playoff time, where teams are more likely to employ those tactics.
And just like Bednar, the organization is loyal to him, and we won't see him moved until the end of his contract

HOW f***ing EVER, CMaC needs to tell that Parkkila has the saying regarding goaltending from now in, in and claim whoever someone puts on waivers.
I don't believe the players have tuned out of him. They are with Beds.

On kyllä jotkut jutut niin turhaa paskaa. Jos piti milli säästää nii Kylington alas.
Why is the coach who has the absolute least to work with at fault? George is at best a mid backup, and Annunen is young guy who is just trying to see if he's capable of NHL play. Parkkila isn't a miracle worker. There probably isn't a goalie coach in the league that makes this duo look even passable. I don't love Parkkila but he has very little to work with.
Bednar on the other hand has 29, 96, 8 etc. when those guys carry we look ok. They have an off game Bednar can't do shit to adjust.
Bednar's seat better be getting extremely toasty, he can't use the injury excuse anymore now that guys are getting back. Results are now expected.

Give the team time to adjust to three dudes coming back who have been out for a while. Last night was a prototypical "getting players back" type game. Everything was out of sync. Everyone was making mistakes. And the goalies sucked ass. Killer combo.
No! Blow it up already!
Anyway, how many of you saw Nuke's postgame interview? I was not expecting any of what I saw. He talked at length, he made eye contact, and his face looked very different. It was, I don't know how to say it, but "clear." His eyes were clear. He didn't have that pinched expression he always has. I wasn't hopeful before, but he just looked much healthier. Still can't put my finger exactly on it.

I am not sure how that happens without creating a new huge hole in the team. Its much needed for sure, but I am not clear how that gets done.

Easy to do it without creating a huge hole. Costs picks/prospects and sending Georgiev out.

Bad goaltending. Top guys not having a good night. Bednar not finding in-game adjustements. Pretty bad effort all around.

Bednar not making adjustments (the blender doesn’t count) is a constant. The bad goaltending is more common than good goaltending. So really, the only difference is that the top guys had a bad night
Avs didn't win the game on purpose so they can finally wash that big ass hat.
