The Avs had an expected goals for tonight of 1.4 and they got 6. Typical Jack Campbell game.
"Defensively deficient Oilers won't get near the Cup with this kind of play

“We score enough goals,” began honest depth winger Warren Foegele, who had a pair of goals and kept his shifts to a tidy 37 seconds, on average. “The mentality has to be to defend. We're definitely capable of that — it's just having the right mindset. Like, we don't need to score more goals. We're up (by) three.

“So we’ve got to take shorter shifts and stay above guys. For some reason, we're just not doing that.”


Hey, Leon Draisaitl. We’re talkin’ about you.

Draisaitl scored, but spent the rest of the night trying high-wire-act passes that landed on Avalanche sticks, forcing offence when it just wasn’t there, and making backwards passes that get picked off with teammates trapped deep in the offensive zone.

Draisaitl averaged a team-high 57 seconds per shift, and it’s time to say this about the NHL’s second leading scorer:

He’s not helping this team win right now, despite the fact Draisaitl has goals in four straight games and 12 of his last 18 games. And let’s not speculate that he’s hurt — Draisaitl averages a 58-second shift this season, and they’re not getting any shorter.

Connor McDavid averages 58 seconds per shift as well, and on the rare night when the world’s best player isn’t impacting the score sheet, it’s acceptable to simply grind out a solid defensive effort and leave the points to others.

That the two lead the league in scoring and are a collective minus-1 tells the story."

Planning the parade route after the first game and I imagine wanting to get rid of the manager after the second game

I got tripped and hit the back of my head! Time to hold my face and go into the fetal position.

Wow! What's up with all the hostilities between the Yote and Blue Jackets?

Very entertaining
