GDT: SCF Game #6 Avs vs Bolts: How bout "Obstructing our way to a Game 7 one crosscheck at a time?” Edition

[Brutananadilewski]

And Kadri is out.

Yes, but you can't understate how important Point has been to the Lightning.

If he wasn't playing, the Avs would have won it all yesterday.

 

[I Eat Crow]

Or Buffalo.

I think teams need to be careful because he is well... Very much in an ideal situation for himself but he's reinvented his game quite a bit. He's basically done what I was hoping Gauthier would do here.

That the type of team I see him ending up on. Close to the playoffs but not quite there yet. Jersey, Buffalo, Ottawa, Montreal, LA, Anaheim come to mind. I can see Vancouver making a run too once they overhaul their roster.

The commercial where they're passing the cup to each other is fantastic.

Not me

Anyone else chilly tonight? It's 49˚ & pouring here in central CT.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Except for the fact that Poolparty seems completely clueless out there.

I actually disagree with this - he's actually got a pretty good handle on what hes doing out there.

His problem is really how hes being utilized in Edmonton+ not completely accepting that hes not going to be a premiere offensive player in this league. He's near the top of my list of guys I'd like to acquire this offseason.

 

[NYR94]

If the Avs win this series in 4 or 5 games, they'll finish the playoffs with fewer games played than the Rangers.

 

[will1066]

Lolol

I've only seen him a few times during the regular season, but he looked completely lost in the playoffs.

Tampa needs to wake up if they want to have any chance to get back in this series, they aren’t playing Dallas or Montreal in the SCF. Colorado actually belongs in the SCF, lol.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Save a few goals for Game 3.

 

[I Eat Crow]

Who woulda thunk that JMFJ would look better here? It's almost as if he was playing hurt with the Rangers and was forced to play in spite of his pleas...

 

[Mike in Houston]

Throw the damn towel.

So did Dallas. That team was good.

Montreal however was LOL.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Way to know your history McDonagh. He just said the Avs haven't won since '99. Sigh.

The thing is they haven't been asleep. They just can't do anything. They're outclassed.

Dallas, meh maybe, but Montreal, lol yeah.

Amazing how Colorado's d-men just walk in and easily snipe the puck past Vasilevskiy with no hesitation. If they were any Rangers defenseman in those situations they'd miss the net by ten feet or try to force a pass through that ends up intercepted.

 

[will1066]

I like Kaplan's hair has a bit of a summit at the top. Like a peak of the Rocky Mountains

 

[Boris Zubov]

BTW...Why is Vasy still in the game? Did he piss off Cooper ala Patrick Roy/Mario Tremblay?

 

[LORDE]

Well it was an odd man rush where the attacking team changed speeds at least once, backing up the D, then slowing down and Vassi was forced to adjust also

We skate in and just cruise like marbles on a slight, consistent decline.

 

[I Eat Crow]

Palat is such a f***ing little weasel. He's approaching top 10 most hated players of all time in my book.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Avs got lucky getting Tampa.

No one was beating the Avs this year. They've looked head and shoulders better than any other team that I've seen in the playoffs.

 

[will1066]

Their PP tried a Kreider play
