I’m happy you know his name. Some organizations don’t lolCame to say here. That Dostal guy is amazing.
Zellwegger the midgetZellweger was supposed to shine in this area… disappointing that Hutson has really surpassed him.
He’s bigger and faster but doesn’t have the instincts and shiftiness of Hutson. Really hope he develops in the AHL and finds his footing.Zellwegger the midget
I feel like our defensemen looked kinda lost with 3 on 3.
Z offensively has been disappointing so far. really worried they're coaching the offense out of him so he can be somewhat respectable defensively.Thought Fabbri was going to score right before that.
I thought Zegs had a low-key disappointing night. Nothing glaringly bad but just never seemed to do anything positive with the puck. Lost a lot of battles too.
Feels kinda silly to think that they are magically going to fix the PP in the next week when they have been trying to fix it for yearsWe have the kings and sharks coming up at home the next 2 games, after that we have a few days off before a trip back East. Hot take, we finally fix our PP before going to that trip back East. And we earn 3/4 points the next couple games.
Big Mac has been the most disappointing player alongside cutter G this season imho. I obviously give cutter a break, given his a rookie. Mac, inexcusable. I think Zegras has been ok. I’m giving Killorn a break, since he has a history of needing some games to heat up to start the season.Z offensively has been disappointing so far. really worried they're coaching the offense out of him so he can be somewhat respectable defensively.

I’m a silly person, so I agree with your assesment as well.Feels kinda silly to think that they are magically going to fix the PP in the next week when they have been trying to fix it for years
wonder if it's a coincidence that it started once cronin became HCThe electricity is gone from Z it feels like, hopefully he's just not in the groove

Even without all those guys, the AVs pressured us all night - they were all over us everywhere. Utah gave us space and we were able to make something of it. But when we're constantly pressed (as we will be in most games), we et confused and go Keystone Kops. I don't know if they need more drill or more study or both, but the RIGHT decisions (with or without the puck) have got to become almost instinctive. Especially sine it looks like many teams will still have a speed advantage on us.Wow what a game. The Ducks did not show up to play tonight. Looked slow and timid. Some mind boggling decisions with and without the puck. Extremely fortunate to escape with a point.
Dostal was obviously great. McGinn and Harkins were working hard. Terry had his moments. As did Carlsson. Gauthier probably had his best game but still didn’t look great.
That Avs team was missing Lehkonen, Toews, Nichushkin, Drouin, and whatever is left of Landeskog and we were completely outclassed. We have a long way to go…..
I think this is a good point. I think we can look decent against teams that don't have a suffocating forecheck, a lot of Avs games looked liked that last year as well. I think our offensive zone struggles tonite can be traced directly back to being dominated in the D zone. When the team is caught up in that, it's like impossible to get any flow going. I think part of it is exhaustion but some of it is almost mentally submitting that this is how it is going to be tonight. You see it with other teams too. Our guys need to get better at dictating play.Even without all those guys, the AVs pressured us all night - they were all over us everywhere.

There is always a silver lining if you look hard enough.
The Avs fans got to watch Dostal play lights out and be the goalie that could legitimately bring them the cup.
For me the silver lining is Colorado picking Justus Annunen 64th in the 2018 NHL draft.
It should a fun season for Avs fans watching Georgiev and Kahkonen while dreaming of what might have been.
