GDT: Game 42: Hawks @ Avs - 9PM EST (NBCSN)

[JoemAvs]

Best Avs period in quite some time...


Barrie , Mac, Duchene, Landy and even some of our vets look good.

Zads has had very bad plays and awesome Z smash plays....


Rants has been pretty bad tonight but other than that I am pretty happy.

I still fear for Rantanen whenever he bends down and starts reaching with one hand.

 

[DanishAvsfan]

Only 4 shots on goal this period from Hawks. That's actually impressive.

 

[Sea Eagles]

We allowed on 4 shots against that period - against The Hawks - credit where it is due guys...good period. Uptempo. We CAN do it, if we try

Other than the penalty I dont think Rants has been bad at all. Z has had some iffy plays coupled with some brilliant ones. Nobody should be blaming him on that Kane play because thats on Como for giving Z a bad pass. Z recovered anyways.

 

[The Kingslayer]

I still fear for Rantanen whenever he bends down and starts reaching with one hand.

I picture Forsberg on Nieuwendyk or Moore on Naslund when I see Rants reach.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Even if we lose which we will this has been entertaining atleast and 4 goals. Cant complain there. Lets not go and do anything stupid and win now.

 

[Avs_19]

That was a good period.

Bednar should seriously think about keeping Grigorenko, Colborne, and Mitchell on the bench in the 3rd. They're brutal.

 

[Alex Jones]

They need to be gone next year. They are awful and bring us way down.

no, he actually should have thought harder and not had them in the lineup in favor of minor league players who want a shot at playing NHL level hockey

see: Blackhawks 3rd and 4th lines

Avs don't really have that many guys that can come up.

That said, I wouldn't be sad at all to see them gone.

 

[Metallo]

Do NOT trade Matt Duchene Sakic..stay the coarse man, stay the coarse - listen to no-one....Carolina will be calling.

It's course not coarse...

 

[Sea Eagles]

Nieto is a very good add...Can see him on our team when we are faster, hungrier and grittier

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Tuning in to see Duchene's last hat trick for the avs.

 

[JoemAvs]

Duchene putting on a show and the Canes scouts are not in attendance (not that it matters but still funny)


Duchene hatty would be awesome. Really might be his last for the Avs...

 

[The Kingslayer]

3rd round pick for Gelinas yah

 

[Avs_19]

Tuning in to see Duchene's last hat trick for the avs.

You think his second hat trick in 8 years is happening tonight? Everyone should tune in for such a rare event.

Canes don't really *need* to see him, they know what they'd be getting if they acquired him.

 

[Foppberg]

Never mind I don't want him dealt

 

[Avs_19]

Get out, Gelinas.

 

[sethro109]

No Avalanche goalie this season can stop a damn breakaway.

 

[Freudian]

Gelinas was nice enough to settle down that tricky pass.

 

[IceRat]

LOL.

I think their 3rd and 4th lines have more points tonight than our 3rd and 4th lines have all season

yeah pretty sure this is true

 

[Cousin Eddie]

That goal is on Gelly but Varlamov used to challenge breakaways a lot more than he did there. I realize it's never a goalies fault when a breakaway goal goes in and this is on Gelin but it's still disappointing to see Varlamov not even try to challenge the shooter.

 

[JoemAvs]

Canes don't really *need* to see him, they know what they'd be getting if they acquired him.

Of course.

But still funny that the explodes the one game they are not listed having scouts in Denver .
