Which goal was hilariously soft?

The 4th goal. Imo.

 

[Svencouver]

Finally a good game, all the eastern games sucked.

They dont call it the LEASTern conference for nothing

The 4th goal. Imo.

It’s a 2 on 1 and the puck got tipped. Probably should have had it but I think that’s a theme you’re going to see quite a bit (odd man rushes).

 

[IronCladCane]

Georgiev up to a .750

He's as bad as Raanta lol

 

[Tryblot]

I never thought of Jake allen in this role but he sounds fantastic.

Defender took the pass away. It became a one on one. He really needed to have that one.

 

[John Mandalorian]

As usual you are wrong. He was a good backup with the Habs. He was bad this season probably because of the lack of starts with 3 goaltenders. He was very good for the Devils. He is a smart guy too. He would have been a good backup, able to start if needed, and might be able to help Georgiev.

Would have preferred someone else.

 

[Jetcetera]

Brendan dillon making his conn smythe bid

 

[Tryamw]

He's as bad as Raanta lol

He reminded me of that game vs Tampa

 

[TatteredTornNFrayed]

Only hope for the Avs is if Annunen goes Adin Hill for the rest of the periods.

Annunen is not even on the bench.

 

[Aphid]

What is Georgiev supposed to do exactly? Maybe he could have stopped the Lowry one but the others weren't stinkers. Tough crowd.

 

[The Abusement Park]

As many expected, going to be a great series. Avs need to find that 2022 D, and Georgiev needs to find his game for them to win 4 rounds.

I mean we've given up 17 shots. And have 4 goals against.... The D's been fine overall I'd say.

 

[IronCladCane]

He reminded me of that game vs Tampa

Same although he has honestly faced some harder shots than Raanta did..... dude stinks he in the AHL

 

[NOTENOUGHRYJOTHINGS]

Which goal was hilariously soft?

Makar pinching and losing the puck to a guy with no stick to give up a two on one. Then Georgiev opening up his 5 hole for an easy one.

 

[SCP Guy]

I never thought of Jake allen in this role but he sounds fantastic.

Agree well spoken and good insight from the goalie point of view

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Would have preferred someone else.

The problem is there were very few goalies available and they would cost the moon. Allen could have been had for a 2nd. He shouldn't have been the 1st choice but if nothing else materialized he would have been a decent add.

 

[Eltuna]

Much better period by the Jets.

Pionk looked rocky in period 1 but looked much calmer in period 2.

Lowry is the lifeblood of our team.

Jets actually gave up the most scoring chances in period 2 that any team has so far in the playoffs, Helle looking good though

Come up with a big save when it was needed the most. It's a hard save no doubt but it could have been a game changer .

 

[v00d00daddy]

Finally a good game, all the eastern games sucked.

Definitely fun to watch by neutrals but I’d be nervous if I was a fan of either.

Neither is playing contender hockey. The first that tightens up wins this game.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Both these teams are total pretenders. Colorado has no goaltending. Winnipeg doesn’t have the team outside of goaltending and if this is the goaltending they get they have even less of a shot.

 

[Svencouver]

Yknow if that guy had a catfish shaped weapon that security guard would have been in a lot of trouble

 

[Praetorian Caps]

I will never understand how both McJesus and Mack turn on a dime with so much speed

like the skates they wear are they even legal?

There's a reason they're the top two players in hockey. Both are unbelievable talents that we're lucky to see play!

 

[tucker3434]

It feels like a fairly decent amount of time the scouting reports don’t get it right because of small sample sizes making things wonky. But tonight is dead on what I expected this series to be. I like the Avs’ game overall. Georgiev isn’t going to make the big save. Helly is.

 

[John Mandalorian]

What is Georgiev supposed to do exactly? Maybe he could have stopped the Lowry one but the others weren't stinkers. Tough crowd.

He could have done a better job anticipating* on the Dcheffele goal. The pass covered a lot of distance and it wasn’t a shot.He should have been able to make it over.
