GDT: G32: Preds @ Avs 7 PM MST

[wayninja]

Blackwood has been great. This team, not so much. Did they all get the flu from him?

We think it's monkey pox

 

[a mangy Meowth]

HFPreds is a ghost town lol.

Preds, "It's all your fault!"

 

[LOFIN]

Kind of sucks to have to get bailed out by goaltending against the preds but oh well I'll take a win just give me some Makar points ffs

I'm willing to give them some leeway after Bednar said there's a sickness going through the team ATM.

I expect Mikko and Blackwood extended by 9am tomorrow CMac

 

[wayninja]

Good home period

 

[Metallo]

Good road period.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Feels weird. Feels Goodman

 

[missionAvs]

MACK

 

[Balthazar]

I don't want to get too excited about Blackwood yet but man, it woud be nice to have a real 1G in his prime for the first time in nearly 10 years

 

[missionAvs]

What a play from Rants.

That sounds like a well reasoned guess. I thought perhaps they just all visited a chicken coop and got bird flu as a team bonding experience

We have a lot of wood to extend too

 

[nightonthesun]

Blackwood, man. Great start

 

[RoyIsALegend]

I’m absolutely loving Blackwood.

I know there will be some bad games or lows, but you just don’t get the impression he’s getting “lucky” on any saves.

He’s reacting, reading the plays, and just looks super confident in goal.

Seems like there's been an excuse on tap for this team all year

 

[sethro109]

I might have to start a Black - Wood chant in the 3rd.

 

[Vaslof]

Middleton has certainly improved in the years since his first Avs game, but I'm thinking he's still more flashy than actually good.

 

[CobraAcesS]

Yanni Gourde?

I'm down, just do not re-sign him. He's not what he once was.

Looks the same to me as George, just much luckier

That blocker save through traffic. His tracking on that one.....

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Would be very happy to be totally wrong on Blackwood. Didn't like the price we paid and didn't think he was a meaningful upgrade in net... So far, very happy with how things are looking.

Looked left, reacted right extending the blocker and leg all the way.

Text book stuff and made it look easy.

 

[jani]

This will get boring really fast. Can we get Georgie back, play Miner/Mandolese or something like that?

That combined with that allegedly Blackwood wasn’t feeling well and that’s why the didn’t meet him seriously has me wondering if he’s the one who got something going through the locker room
