Disgusting? What? He just commented on a simple play

Ugh, you sicken me

 

[Spirits]

Disgusting? What? He just commented on a simple play

I was joking, because he said Kadri was plowing Frankie.

 

[crue7]

Sure bud. You'll see he's not a jost.

Ok, I’m just commenting that he hasn’t been good tonight. I’m sure he can do better…bud

We don't play them again until January 18th. Then on February 25, which is another back to back for us while they're rested. Calgary fans are genuinely gonna think they're better than us.

Calgary is better but can they be better when it matters is all that matters. Im just not a believer in Markstrom come post season. Good enough for a round maybe 2 but thats it.

Is this game as bad as the box score indicates lol

 

[Spirits]

Worse. We are getting beat in a similar manner to how we beat other teams.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Makar is definitely in hangover mode. Bobbled the puck a lot yesteday as well.

Makar a notorious slow starter.

 

[ASmileyFace]

Lol called it all summer, 2C is a problem. And I knew posters who said it would fine are already bitching about it.

Should have used G to get a reasonable 2C.

It's game 2 which is the second of a b2b after the banner raising ceremony. Give it to game 10 before going around pumping your own tires

 

[sethro109]

The hate for Newhook on here is really cringy. Give the kid a God damn chance. That line doesn't even have it's normal right winger on it and the kid just barely is facing other teams top players. There's always going to be growing pains. We should really put Erod with Mack and let Lehky help that line out. Or elevate another player to the top line and move Erod down.

 

[AvsWraith]

Is this game as bad as the box score indicates lol

Way worse.

 

[Dr Amazing]

If the Avs resigned Kadri they probably would be winning 3-1 lol

 

[redacted]

Worse.

Sadly, yeah it is worse

 

[Ncit3]

2nd game of the season, back to back mind you and people are already turning on newhook

we could go 82-0 and sweep the playoffs scoring 5 more goals than every team each game and still hfavs would whine about “insert forward” and their terrible play.

[chet1926]

Two games.

I was told to shut up all summer and it was no big deal but people are bitching about it already.

Sure it's early but Newhook looks like dog shit. It's not close and doesn't look promising.

 

[Vaslof]

Ok, I’m just commenting that he hasn’t been good tonight. I’m sure he can do better…bud

There's your mistake. I wasn't talking about just this game.

 

[crue7]

I was joking, because he said Kadri was plowing Frankie.

Oh lmao, Frankie has been awesome tonight

 

[The Kingslayer]

Is this game as bad as the box score indicates lol

Its actually flattering. It should be 6-1 Flames right now.

 

[ASmileyFace]

Big difference between talking about his obvious struggles at a tough position and turning on him.

Newhook is having a disaster of a game, but so is the whole team.

I'm giving it till November before calling it on the Newhook experiment.

 

[Spirits]

Oh lmao, Frankie has been awesome tonight

He’s the only one. I am buying this “scheduled” loss shit.

 

[redacted]

Its actually flattering. It should be 6-1 Flames right now.

I’d argue 6-0… bit of a lucky bounce and save-able goal for the Avs.

 

[crue7]

There's your mistake. I wasn't talking about just this game.

Ok, but there’s absolutely no need to be condescending with the whole “bud” thing. We’re all fans of the team, let’s just talk without that.

 

[chet1926]

Oh so I have to give it time, but everyone else is allowed to immediately jump all over my back all summer long saying I'm a dumbass. Got it, seems fair.

 

[TomppaKoo]

When Landy returns, Mikko has to be 2C. with Artsi as wing - doesn't matter who is the third part. Newhook/ERod just do not have the capability of taking that position.

Agreed on the Newhook front. Seems like many almost want him to fail.
