GDT: Game 44: Avs @ Sharks | Saturday, January 21st, 8:30pm MT | Just Another Day

[Murzu]

sorry guys

It is okay. Don't feel too bad.

MacK has buried that shot a few times this year. He has to shoot.

Oh indeed.

 

[The Shermanator]

Welcome to the circus Martin.

 

[DanishAvsfan]

That might have been the worst game I've ever seen Duchene play.

Disagree, there has been games where he has played injured and was completely invisible.

 

[Alex Jones]

That might have been the worst game I've ever seen Duchene play.

He was really bad, even at doing things like handling the puck.

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

They played pretty well overall, so I can't complain about that game. Hope to see more of that before the season ends.

 

[Avs_19]

Damn. Pretty good game though.

Coyotes won too so it's all good.

 

[CobraAcesS]

This may be putting it too simply, but I think it says a lot. Martin is NHL caliber...

 

[The Kingslayer]

Mackinnon couldnt have played that OT any worse. Has a two on one in his spot doesnt shoot makes a horrible pass. Stays out way too long. Changes when they dont have possession turning it into a 3 on 2 long enought for them to score. Just horrible

 

[McMetal]

How sad is it that an OT loss where we don't **** the bed feels a lot like a win?

 

[RockLobster]

Bad change from MacKinnon, and it doesn't look like Duchene put in any hustle to get to Schlemko.

I'm not feeling like it was a win.

 

[cgf]

At some point, I'd like to see how a Greer - Soderberg - Compher line would look. Cause I could see playing with those two really energize Soda, and with Soda giving a s*** that line could give us good zone time.

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

How did they not earn another PP all game? They controlled a lot of the play.

 

[CobraAcesS]

Win or lose, they haven't solidly outplayed a good team like that since last year. They've had some even games this season, but they haven't handily out played a good team this season until now.

 

[The Kingslayer]

I'm not feeling like it was a win.

One positive was Spencer Martin. He looked very calm in net.

 

[Avsblitzkrieg]

Is this team starting to play like bednar wants? Either way I hope we continue to play well.

 

[McMetal]

I've been skeptical of the idea of trading Duchene, but after that game you have to wonder if he knows something we don't about how long he has left in this uniform. Everybody has bad games, but I've never seen him so lethargic out there.

 

[MonsterMack]

He wasn't tested a lot, bu it was definitely a good debut

 

[The Kingslayer]

We definetly deserved a better fate tonight as I thought we were the better team overall. These kinda losses im ok with.

 

[CobraAcesS]

I think eventually this season we'll see both of them up like that. Right now I feel like we've found our top two lines. I've really liked these lines lately.

Nieto kind of plays that McGinn role, just wish his shot placement was NHL caliber. Everything else about that guy is top 9 caliber except his shot placement. If Nieto could finish his chances he'd be a top six forward.

I dont know if he knows something but hes playing like a man who wants to leave. Hes defiently talking that way.

 

[Cousin Eddie]

Frustrating seeing Mackinnon try to force a pass there in OT which wasn't really available. He did the same thing on Grigo's goal but ended up getting a lucky bounce. When you're in a prime shooting position, have a release like Mackinnon does and your only other option is a low percentage pass you need to shoot the damn puck.

Bednar was riding him like a mule in the 3rd. He was gassed in OT

I guess at least he is using his linemates lol..
