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

[sethro109]

Big f***ing choke by everyone. Especially Bednar and the blind coaches.

 

[Avs425]

Avs spent that entire last minute looking like they were trying to hump a door knob, they just can’t keep anything simple

 

[Mighty Makar]

Let’s give Landy $9M after the Wild take us out in 5-6 games.

 

[Lando929292]

They should've challenged that last minute goal I swear that guy did not have possessing when he brought the puck in

 

[missionAvs]

They way this team played against the Sharks, I feel like either of Vegas or the Wild would demolish them.

 

[Go19]

2-0 lead - give up a goal late in period - not a good recipe

 

[The Kingslayer]

I don't mind losing, it happens. Blowing a 2 goal lead though in this situation? Pathetic.

Exactly. Losing is one thing but the manner in which they lost is bothersome especially this time of the year. If this happened in January fine.

 

[Metallo]

There are many ways to lose and this is not one that is acceptable.

 

[Rumplesnipeskin]

Who is going to make them ashamed?

No one should have to, any professional would be embarrassed with that finish

 

[Shinjuku Calling]

the correct opinion.

 

[Avsboy]

Without Girard, Byram, Saad, EJ, and Calvert, it's to be expected

 

[Foppa2118]

Plethora of piss poor individual plays in the last couple minutes. Everyone just stopped using their teammates.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

These are the games where, if the Avs learn from it, important lessons can be learned. They are a good enough team that even when they play lazy, dumb hockey, they can pull out a win. However, they can also get bit in the ass when they do that.

 

[Shinjuku Calling]

Who is going to make them ashamed?

no one, they don't care.

 

[cgf]

What on earth is happening on Bednar's head? Someone give that man a haircut.

 

[John Mandalorian]

You can tell when a game is going to be a dog. 1. Is it on NBC? 2. When MacKinnon gets a stick to the face and he gets the penalty, it becomes obvious where the game is going.

 

[R2daV]

Geez, that gave me flashbacks of Makar handling the puck like a grenade with the goalie in last year’s playoffs...

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Without Girard, Byram, Saad, EJ, and Calvert, it's to be expected

We can keep using this excuse, but the Avs didn’t lose because they didn’t have enough talent. They lost the game because they looked like they stopped playing after going up by 2.

 

[MoreLikeTurdCrapley]

The question is with or without home ice.

Sucks because Minny kinda looked like they had a chance against Vegas.

1 game in hand after tonight. And we get the kings the next 2 games. And 1 against vegas to control our destiny (assuming we beat LA).

tonight sucked. But the panic and sh*t talking is ridiculous and embarrassing.

 

[Spilot23]

They try to be so fancy in the zone entry in a 6v5 just dump the puck in. The 2nd PP unit zone entries are way better because they keep it simple. Lost about a minute trying to enter in the zone.

 

[McMetal]

Just a miserable night for the top line tonight. Especially in the third. Landeskog's penalty was the one the Sharks scored on too, and they were on for both the ES goals.

Worst case scenario tonight. Vegas wins in OT, Avs lose in regulation.

 

[Mighty Makar]

Up 2-0 on a bottom 10 team, lose 3-2! f***en pathetic. Let’s give Landy $9M.

 

[AvsWraith]

Our PP and PK is gonna get us bounced.

 

[The Merchant]

Excuse my "hyperbole," but that was an unacceptable loss. Coaching staff blew it. The top line blew it. The top pairing blew it. They were going to have to win out to catch Vegas, but now they're just in danger of losing home ice against Minnesota. You just cannot piss these games away this late into the season.

Exactly. Which exposes yet another problem. Leadersh--- naw, no one cares to get lectured right now.

This game of all pisses me off. Exposes a sh!tton about the Avs.
