GDT: G52: Avs @ Isles - 28/01/25 @ 5:30 PM MT - Stopping Saint Patrick on the Island

[AegonLeConqueror]

Boys, I don't want to say it, but I think I gotta bring this up...

Drouin is reverting back to his Habs days. He has looked effin' useless these past four games. Not a spark of brilliance, not even ONE play can be justified to defend him on the first line or even in the lineup.

They put Necas with MacKinnon and that line just got a little too fast for even Drouin

Val needs to come back so that everyone on the 1st line is fast as fook

 

[GeoRox89]

Never would’ve guessed back at the 22 deadline that Lehky would end up my all time favourite complimentary player (or that Cogs would by all time favourite role player/bottom 6er)

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

Man, we are dominating this game.

Entire game has been spent in the Islanders zone.

24-14 the shots and most of theirs are one and done.

Keep firing. Keep working.

This is sort of pressure you can keep up with a deep roster. Canes style.

I disagree. His line has maintained offensive zone pressure for extended periods of time every time they’re out there. It’s not necessarily resulting in goals, but he’s getting tons of touches on the puck and they’re moving the puck constantly in the offensive zone

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

I feel like Drury's was a tip but otherwise it's been a minute

His was a tip but I think it was from the edge of the circles. Like 20ft out or something.

 

[blundluntman]

I think I could get used to Necas and Mackinnon

 

[S E P H]

He is not fit. Or doesn't look like it.

He plays injured

Fair enough, i forgot that he's going through something.

Don't entirely agree. We have had loads of O-Time for sure, but a ton of floaters from the outside with little to no screens.

Sure if you ignore that his two way play has been fantastic

 

[Vaslof]

Remember when we traded Barron and a 2nd and ended up with Lehky? Along with the Toews trade that has to be one of the best of this generation of Avs teams.

Pretty sure I got blasted for suggesting he has top six potential

 

[forsbergavs32]

One thing I like is the Avs are finally getting pucks on net rather than shooting wide or into feet

the stick lift to protect the pass on the mack-necas-makar goal last game was pretty sweet

 

[Go19]

Ohh Lehky - take it easy

 

[forsbergavs32]

Lehk to the bench for a tire change

 

[avsfan2189]

ive only seen the 2nd period but honestly im liking the wood - drury - colton line, dominating out there in their assignments

 

[sethro109]

Wedgewood laughing at Lehky and wiping him off with a towel was pretty funny.

 

[drhiii]

Lecky taking over for mikko, btoi. Butt Time On Ice.

 

[Balthazar]

Never would’ve guessed back at the 22 deadline that Lehky would end up my all time favourite complimentary player (or that Cogs would by all time favourite role player/bottom 6er)

He's smallish, doesn't skate particularly fast, doesn't have good hands, doesn't have a great shot...but he finds ways to get shit done. In all aspects of the game, all the time.

He's so impressive.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Nice try Manson

 

[Go19]

Looking good till it got on Mansons stick

 

[GeoRox89]

Necas has a Burky like ability to enter the zone

 

[the_fan]

Necas zone entries are awesome. He creates stuff on his own

 

[Snow Arc]

I like Nachos!

 

[CharlesPuck]

I know small sample size.... but Necas is so much more noticeable than Mikko....

Dude can enter the zone and set up plays with ease.

 

[wayninja]

CHANGE FASTER YOU COWARDS

 

[EdAVSfan]

Necas is ridiculous at getting zone entry.

He’s gonna help so much if we get Nuke on that line. Constant threats from him and Mack to break the zone and create.
