[JWK]

Duke! Those hands

 

[Avalanche]

what a tip

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

That was a dirty tip.

 

[The Merchant]

Duuuuuuuuke

 

[Drij]

I miss that goal horn

 

[PAZ]

Is that our old goal siren too?

 

[Cynthesis]

WOW what a tip!

 

[Tommy Shelby]

That was a pretty play. Look how fast they moved the puck. Crisp, accurate passes. I forgot how nice it was to watch that kind of hockey.

 

[MonsterMack]

Dat tip

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

Roy with soty.

 

[the_fan]

Look at this guys pass, holy ****, that reminds me how much more talent there was back in 90's, the fact that this guys can do this at this age is amazing

 

[AvsFanJosh]

That save by roy wow

 

[The Shermanator]

Lol Patty.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Patty just Roy'd them there.

 

[Foppa2118]

Patrick almost turned the puck over for a goal again. Fitting.

 

[Avsboy]

Mark my words. This is and will be revenge for 2002.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

I don't want this to end. Hard to remember the last time I enjoyed watching a game this much. Maybe the gold medal game in 2002.

Are the Alumni Avslanche at their current age better than our team is right now?

 

[AvsFanJosh]

Are the Alumni Avslanche at their current age better than our team is right now?

Honestly i doubt it. They dont have the stamina to play hard for a full 20.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Are the Alumni Avslanche at their current age better than our team is right now?

If they all got into game shape? I'd say they'd beat the current team in a playoff series, easily.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

If they all got into game shape? I'd say they'd beat the current team in a playoff series, easily.

Not sure if serious but they actually would get blown out

 

[PAZ]

If they all got into game shape? I'd say they'd beat the current team in a playoff series, easily.

Doubt it. No way they would be able to deal with the speed and pace.

They definitely are the better players and if all of them were in the late 30s, then probably. But when you have guys in the mid 50s playing, it's not possible to compete with the younger guys.

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

If they all got into game shape? I'd say they'd beat the current team in a playoff series, easily.

Lol no
I think you underrate the speed of the game. Duchene and MacKinnon would skate circles around these guys.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

If they all got into game shape? I'd say they'd beat the current team in a playoff series, easily.

A practicing, cohesive, NHL roster would sweep this Alumni team. Not just us. Toronto, Buffalo, whoever. Let's not get crazy here. None of these guys could handle a forecheck or any of the real stuff.

Rycroft is so giddy
