GDT: S1G3 - Stars @ Avs - Low-Effort Gangstalking edition

[Bill Peckerskull]

Better 2nd, but still not good enough

 

[Puckstop40]

Landeskog’s defense still great.

 

[Muffin]

MacKinnon is so bad tonight he can't even make a pass

 

[The Merchant]

Cale has a grade-A chance there if MacK completes a simple pass.

 

[Snow Arc]

 

[wayninja]

Someone needs to tell Mackinnon that he's playing like dogshit. He's deep in his own head.

 

[CharlesPuck]

Avs looked better that period. Keep adjusting and wear Dallas down.


Also…. Get 27 off the top line. 62 or 92 would be so much better.

 

[Metallo]

Mack needs to bear down on passes, he's been off multiple times.

 

[drhiii]

Landy backcheck. Second best thing so far..

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

Avs playing like the max level of effort they're allowed to play at is 60%

Yesh I feel the same. Dallas isn't that great as long as we would play to our level.

 

[22FUTON9]

Landy looks better than Mack and Makar lol

 

[Ararana]

Boys... this is next goal wins territory.

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

Landy backcheck. Second best thing so far..

So good. MacK should learn from him.

 

[dahrougem2]

Even-strength numbers through 40 minutes:

Shot Attempts 37-33 Stars
Scoring Chances 17-15 Avalanche
High Danger Chances 10-4 Avalanche

"An ass kicking" @Balthazar says

 

[Avs_19]

Much better period.

Landeskog leading the team with a 92% xGF% because of course he is.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Mack needs to bear down on passes, he's been off multiple times.

MacK's targets are either 5 feet in front of the player, into their skates, or tape to tape to a Dallas player

 

[katfude]

I swear to f***ing god if they start turtling....

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

Landy looks better than Mack and Makar lol

Landy for the Conn Smythe.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Still concerned with Mack but overall much better effort in the 2nd. I’d like to see this for the 3rd

Lando - Mack - Nuke
Lehk - Nelson - Necas
Drouin - Coyle - Kivi
Kelly - Drury - LOC

 

[AvsWraith]

Now the third period where Dallas will probably get three powerplays in a row.

 

[The Merchant]

Landy looks better than Mack and Makar lol

And it's not close. Cale looks bad...again. But Nate is a legit detriment to his team right now. Worst playoff game we've seen from him, maybe ever?

 

[flyfysher]

They look better to the eye. How could they not?

Very uneven in their play. It’s like JB is intentionally and surreptitiously screwing up our lines as a secret audition for DeBoer’s job. No chemistry. They look late in executing and disjointed.

 

[wayninja]

Just need to play prevent defense and go full impregnable shell mode for 20 mins

 

[Chiarelli]

Why did we wait until game 3 to play our best player ?

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

I swear to f***ing god if they start turtling....

It would be the worst strategy now because we can't handle Dallas fat ass team on boards. They would dominate us like in the first period. We need to keep pushing them. Their players are tired. Don't let them get possession easily in the offensive zone.
