GDT: Game 25: Denver Avalanche vs. Shining Stars | Sunday, December 3rd, 6pm MT

[CoachBadkitten]

ugh Nieto

 

[sethro109]

Why didn't Varly start today?

 

[Foppberg]

Horrible defense by Nieto there.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Nieto...

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

You can't make that pass with a forechecker on you with him being on his forehand like that. Bad, bad play.

 

[Freudian]

Wrong guy to lose the puck to.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Why didn't Varly start today?

Don't know how that's on Bernier, Nieto offered up that breakaway.

 

[Nalens Oga]

If I was a GM of another team that was playoff bound but needed depth up front, I would seriously ask about what it would take to get both Comeau + Soderberg in a package deal.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Pepsi Center is dead quiet right now. Eerily quiet even.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Horrid turnover by Nieto and looked even worse trying to play defense on Seguin

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

That was an awkward play that ended up working alright for a Ghetto chance/

 

[sethro109]

Don't know how that's on Bernier, Nieto offered up that breakaway.

I don't blame Bernie for that goal. It was just bad timing.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Pepsi Center is dead quiet right now. Eerily quiet even.

Home team not doing a thing to give them cause. Flat start again playing a team coming off a shootout game last night. Thats a coaching issue when teams come out flat like this.

 

[Perratrooper]

Nice assist and defense by Nieto there....

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

I don't blame Bernie for that goal. It was just bad timing.

Yea, it was a breakaway against one of the fastest/skilled players in the league. On top of that Nieto was more of a distraction than helpful defensively there.

 

[Foppberg]

Pretty boring game so far. Last game was a snoozefest too.

 

[Kale Makar]

Just a coincidence we've been flat since Landy went down?

 

[The Kingslayer]

As bad as Yak is at accepting passes I think Barrie is almost as bad.

 

[Nalens Oga]

Those old Stars jerseys with the darker green were so much better.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Zadorov fires a pass that was harder then Kerfoot's Slapper.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

As bad as Yak is at accepting passes I think Barrie is almost as bad.

Barrie also can't pass/set up anyone for an actual shot or breakout.

 

[Avsavsavsavsavs]

Nieto = Colborne 2.0? Terrible

 

[Avs425]

wow all on barbs on that one, terrible outlet pass

 

[The Kingslayer]

Terrible turnover again. Girard way too passive on that and im not sure if Barberio should be passing to him there.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Zadorov fires a pass that was harder then Kerfoot's Slapper.

When you watch really good teams play they rip hard passes like that all the time. I won't be convinced the Avs are ready to contend until they are actually making those types of passes regularly.
