WCQF: Game 1 - Colorado Avalanche @ Winnipeg Jets, 7pm ET - ESPN2

[RunItBackAgain]

Winnipeg looking a lot like I expected them to look. Overrated roster propped up by an elite goaltender, but elite goaltenders eventually crack against elite offensive teams. Avs win this series. Lets see if they prove me wrong.

Do they? Asking for my friends who are Leaf fans.

 

[Coffey]

Uh oh

Avs looked like they watched a lot of video and adjusted. They are running jets out of their own building in this 1st 10 mins.

It's easy to forget, but the Avs have tended to come out of the gate red hot in the postseason. Their stars just wake up and play.

It's not game 1 that will define the series, opponents tend to adjust and catch up to the Avs pace, wearing them down physically. Avs need to put it away early or it could be a long grinding series and go against them just as easily.

And there it is! Welcome to the playoffs Georgiev

 

[snowkiddin]

Georgiev is so bad lmao

 

[Despote]

Seeing Canadian teams flop kinda makes me anxious for my Oilers tomorrow

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

Oof

 

[SnowStorm]

So it begins.gif

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

ugh, how did the aves not get a goalie at the TDL?

 

[Sol]

And just like that, the best liquor is always… top shelf.

 

[OilersFanatics505]

There's the Avs I remember

 

[eviohh26]

Incoming blaming of the goalie.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

What the f*** would a vancouver fan know about putting together a full playoff 60min?

??????? I am a Habs fan and Habs always give 100%.
And they let the Jets have a shot on goal and the game is over.

 

[gn2007]

That's the quick jets.

 

[PanniniClaus]

Don't worry - just score 1 of every 3

 

[Frenchy]

1-1 game

1 goal on 3 shots , looks about right

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

There we go

Winnipeg looking a lot like I expected them to look. Overrated roster propped up by an elite goaltender, but elite goaltenders eventually crack against elite offensive teams. Avs win this series. Lets see if they prove me wrong. Their only hope is Georgiev being the worst goalie in the playoffs.

Overreaction. 8 minutes into a series is basically like a team scoring a TD kn their first two possessions settle down

 

[RedRocking]

Damn, that place is rocking

 

[PromisedLand]

Georgiev? nah GeorSieve!

 

[Summer Rose]

I feel like Georgiev could have had that one.

 

[Terrier]

Wow, an equalizer.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

That's the quick jets.

It's the turd Georgiev.

 

[BMOK33]

There was a bit of traffic there but it appeared to me he literally had no idea where that was. Statistically there you have to play the lefty shooter probably going back the other way

 

[Alex Jones]

You have to track that shot at the NHL level.
