GDT: WCQF: Game 2 - Avs @ Stars, 7:30 MT - "I've Heard It Both Ways" Edition

[Metallo]

We are the Cup Champs, they are the pretenders. Go out in OT and win the game, however you need to. Go fo the throat!

 

[Elbombatzo]

usualy i would get ready for work right now (7am here). hope we win this and the day off wasnt for nothing

 

[MonsterMack]

Wow, like what happened to all the puck skills of our players in that third period? Pucks falling off of MacKinnon's stick, Lehkonen falling down from passes, Nuke over skating easy pucks, Girard can't clear it to save his life, and so forth. Every single player besides Johnson had a moment where it looked like their talent was zapped from those Evil villains in the first Space Jams movie.

Bad ice

Boys know that was a shit 3rd.

They realize all they've got to do is score next and they go home with a two game lead. The Avs have basically been practicing for this moment the entire year by not giving a shit until 10 minutes left in the third every night.

5v5 xGF%

Stars 68%
Avs 32%

Vegas level domination.

 

[Mighty Makar]

Lehky will be the hero.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Bad ice

It didn’t help that MacKinnon decided that he only needed one hand on his stick for the majority of the 3rd

You say their lineup is shit, the games are close AF and you refuse to credit their coach. I don't get it.

Even if we win this one in OT and proceed to sweep them it's clear as day that he has the upper hand on Bednar.

Who said their lineup is shit? I said their D are awful.

How is it clear as day? Because DeBoer beat an Avs team with no 2nd line in 2021 and with the corpse of Zach Parise on said line with Georgiev in goal in 2024?

 

[sethro109]

No one in front again.

 

[Tom155]

Cmon boys get it done

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

BBW with a the GWG in OT

 

[cccoltsicehockey]

Lazy f***ing shit by Necas

 

[double minor]

Forgot about the PP thought he changed the lines for once

 

[missionAvs]

Too easy for Otter. Absolutely no traffic in front.

 

[Tweaky]

I hate how shoot adverse our star players are. If Makar and MacKinnon loved scoring goals as much as Ovechkin they’d dummy the league

One of those guys is the first defenseman in 16 years to score 30 goals, and the other one led the league in shots on goal, but hey, whatever.

 

[sethro109]

One unscreened shot... Not f***ing good enough.

These games were always going to be close because Dallas knows how to play against us, it was like this in the regular season as well.

The one job Val Nichushkin has and he is standing above the hashmarks.

 

[Foppa2118]

Great stick from Toews there on that partial 2 on 1.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

So many Avs players just completely disengaged

 

[JoeSakic13]

Holy. Shit.

 

[double minor]

Holy shit

 

[Avaholic19]

Omg

 

[sethro109]

Holy f*** too close.

 

[JudoKoala]

Holy f*** Blackie
