GDT: Game #51 Avs @ Sharks May the Fifth & Cinco de Mayo 7:30 MT

[Avs_19]

I thought he got an unsportsmanlike penalty based on embellishment. If it was due to mouthing off then I stand corrected.

They didn't specify but it sure seemed that way. I believe they also say "diving" if that's what the penalty is for.

Wild up 2-1 lol nice

This krill kid is nuts

But Jost on wing...would get crushed.

Jared has said he thought Jost was better as a winger up until March. The Avs need to get a big lead and Jared could get to doing some combos and see who Newhook might find chemistry with.

 

[Avs_19]

Nathan and Mikko are the only true playmaking forwards on this team and they play together.

They could use Taylo......ah forget it.

I don’t know why this mistake keeps propagating.

Word of the day toilet paper?

Some website/network had it spelled that way. That’s why I’ve made that mistake too.

 

[Foppa2118]

Yes but follow through is not a penalty. Mack should know that.

It's not clear that it was a follow through. It was out of frame on the live shot, and the replay didn't show where the puck was.

It looked like it might have been a follow through, but it also looked like he might have been trying to lift Nate's stick while the puck was being cleared.

 

[Metallo]

Nah, he specifically said group of dmen

I don’t know then. The guy is drunk half the time, don’t mind him.

 

[sethro109]

That mouth of his. I dont normally see the stars get dinged for that. Connor mouths off every shift.

I feel like Crosby almost threatens the refs with the way he yells at them. I can't remember the last time he got one for that.... But I also haven't watched a Pens game all year.

Vegas in Minny is like the Avs in Western Canada.

They didn't specify but it sure seemed that way. I believe they also say "diving" if that's what the penalty is for.

That seems to be discretionary to the referee. Some say "embellishment" others don't seem to give a shit about sugar coating it and just call it "diving."

I think it's actually listed as diving/embellishment in the rule book.

Nathan mustve went over the line bad. He probably watched Scarface before this game.

This made me laugh

 

[sethro109]

Ugh. 2-2 in minny with 3 minutes to go. Please don't go to overtime.

 

[Avsfan1921]

McNab is one of the best colour guys there is. Moser isn't bad either. For all we get called for Altitude being homers, these 2 guys actually give credit to opponents. Listen to NESN. They are actual homers. f***ing Jack Edvards especially.

I agree they aren’t the most homer group, I’m meaning as broadcasters in general. The rants they go on, to walking all over each other, to just absolutely incorrect observations... it’s bad. I listen to them because they are the ones that call for my team and I like avs-centric talk but it’s painful. All of this is just my opinion of course and I don’t want to hijack the thread on the topic but man.... it’s painful to listen to them bumble along every game for me personally.

 

[AvsMakar08]

Dude, where is Makar?

 

[Metallo]

Wild up 2-1 lol nice

This krill kid is nuts

 

[The Shermanator]

Makar is a wonder to behold

 

[wayninja]

Makar is fun to watch

 

[Foppa2118]

Nathan mustve went over the line bad. He probably watched Scarface before this game.

My guess is it's more about his history of barking at referees than what he said in this specific instance. The ref was probably tired of it and wanted to send a message.

Nuke's linemate need to stop with the suicide passes to him.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Makar is so fun

 

[Foppa2118]

Kadri just refused to pass to Newhook there in transition.

He got closed off on along the wall multiple times with Newhook open a few feet away, but kept trying his individual plays. Almost resulted in another turnover too.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Graves saved a goal

 

[The Shermanator]

Oh Soda got 34 back. Might have noticed if he ever did anything.
