Did I hear that was Mitts' first shot in the last 5 games? Lmfao holy shit

Good news is, the Avs are playing like crap because of a lack of effort. the bad news is, the Avs have heard all of Bednar's motivational speaches by now. Not sure he's the one that needs to lead the change anyways. Someone in the locker room needs to say that effort isn't acceptable.

Blackwood probably feels like he's behind the Sharks again.

Sharks fans said he's better when facing a lot of shots. Guess we are obliging.

[forsbergavs32]

That's 3 completely awful passes from Toews now

It’s our best line like usual, Kivi-Kelly-LOC

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

This team is playing like they all have the mumps

Justus tribute.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Surprised Sissons and Forsberg haven't scored yet.

What in the f*** is Rycroft wearing?

Remember when Colton and Mittelstadt looked like hockey Titans?

Good times.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

What in the f*** is Rycroft wearing?

Something he found at ARC this morning

 

[sethro109]

MacK wanted a hooking call.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Alright, finished off the period the right way

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Standard MacK complaint.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

MacK wanted a hooking call.

Good slash, but not egregious

 

[BobRossColton]

Only jump we had really, and it came 19:58

 

[expatriatedtexan]

So does the Bednar blender go into effect now or does he wait until the third?

You nailed this theme in your post after last game. Poor, lack, <whatever modifier insert here>... is supernova glaring level.

My team lost this aft, badly, so patience is non existent to watch highly paid professionals not perform up to reasonable standards.

 

[Alienblood]

Unpopular take but Girard is better than Toews.

not unpopular he is

Half the team is dealing with cold/flu shit.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

I noticed something really weird about Blackwood.

When the shots are taken, he is moving his limbs to the puck and not just hoping it hits him.

Crazy.

For real though, he looks freaking massive in goal and rebound control has been top notch.

 

[Lonewolfe2015]

Good news, both of the new goalies seem solid. I like how engaged Blackwood is on the ice. Does he have any pick handling skills? His body language seemed like someone comfortable stepping out of the crease.
