GDT: Jackets @ Avs | First Emergency GDT Thread | 7pm MT (RIP Johnny Hockey)

Getting those 4 players back will make a huge difference where we’ll actually win games even with bad goaltending

It may help, but there’s something soul crushing knowing that even if you play the perfect game, that dumbf*** back there could let in 6 off of 6 dump ins

I’d bet the house it makes 0 difference if fatty is warm or not.

Last year and in preseason he outplayed George. Go with the FatMan. He won't be competing for the Vezna, but at least he'll use his big frame to play the angles. That's more than George is doing right now.

 

[Ararana]

George can’t play another game. There’s no way

We said that last year. Yet cMac sat on this problem all summer.

 

[LurkerMcgee]

It’s not rycroft. He was a breath of fresh air in the intermission report when he first came in. They clearly want the homer, it’s not anyone’s fault thing at altitude

He says the defense is at fault for the goals. He either isn’t watching or begging to not get fired for being honest.

 

[Arto Kilponen]

the only thing worst than the AVS goaltending is Rycrofts commentary! That moron doesn’t know a god damn thing about hockey!!! He needs to be fired

Well, Logan O'Connor for example knows that the Colorado goalies are great.

Is there a mandate for all of these guys to straight up avoid talking about Georgiev?

JML saying the Avs did not deserve to win this game? Are you kidding me?

I’d bet there is. Hes a head case. They probably don’t want to break him further.

 

[chet1926]

Seriously. Im racking my brain at how to escape this and I can’t.

There isn't a solution. It's impossible. We went all in on 7/2 off suit and acting surprised it didn't work.

 

[Avs_19]

Has to be Annunen or Kaap (if immigration sorts out) next game. It may not help but they can’t go back to the other guy.

 

[jabubenice]

franchise history in goals allowed after 2 games... well at least the team has made history

I think there is something to it. They avoided it last year, too. They've avoided talking negativity about Nichushkin as well.

He should be put on waivers the instant Kahkonen arrives.

f*** that, he’s a lost cause, just move on instead of constantly trying to salvage

Think back they’ve all been like that. Mcnabb (rip) did the same thing. Altitude doesn’t want trash talk about the goalie. I can’t ever recall them roasting too many players nevermind a goaltender.

Avs Mafia at their finest.

Yet another reason he should be fired

I mean duh he isn’t winning the Vez…but he also isn’t winning any more games than Georgie. They can all fall into a few wins…especially if the team was healthy. Neither of these keepers has an ounce of respect from the rest of the team. That’s a big factor.

 

[Ncit3]

I'm tired of watching subpar goalie play. Not just for wins and losses sake. I just love watching talented goalies do good work. And I'm tired of not getting to see it on MY team.

 

[forsbergavs32]

It may help, but there’s something soul crushing knowing that even if you play the perfect game, that dumbf*** back there could let in 6 off of 6 dump ins

Those 4 players aren't the problem, the Avs are scoring goals. C-Bus had plenty of defensive breakdowns, the difference is that Tarasov could make good saves, while Georgiev let in 3 on 8 shots and Annunen started playing better but wasn't that much better. Having Lando, Lehk, Nuke and Drouin would be nice but they're not going to help in net.

 

[Muffin]

Sad part is I don't see a goalie available on the market. We should've been in on Markstrom or Ullmark and shot Fourgiev to the moon in the off season.

 

[Ararana]

Yet another reason he should be fired

We're not allowed to say bad things about cMac. Get it together!

 

[katfude]

All summer i was missing hockey. Now I miss the offseason

 

[RoyIsALegend]

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

If Beds and CMac are going to hang this season on resurrecting George they should both be fired

 

[LurkerMcgee]

Maxy wasn’t a blind idiot though. He was able to at least say there was a weakness. Rycroft makes it seem like the goalies are getting hung out to dry.

Askarov with a shutout win tonight, @RoyIsALegend.
