GDT: WCQF - Game #3 Avs in Nashville @2:30pm MT| 4:30 ET|10:30 EET (Uncle Risto) | 3:30 ICT (Kingslayer)

Exactly my thoughts. You're near the crease, with your stick up? He'd just played for a tip, stick checked, but many milliseconds went by and... that happened. I don't think that was entirely accidental.

NO WAY that was circumstantial..... These guys touch and feel for their lumber is so finely tuned they can stick handle in a phone booth, knock a bat out of mid air, conduct an appendectomy in full flight.

 

[sethro109]

TNT is still bitching about Lehky. f*** off already.

 

[drhiii]

Did Johansen even react when he realized he had his stick in Kuempers face? Usually when your stick gets stuck somewhere you look back or try to pry it loose.

Agree. There is more to it that 'accidental'.

 

[Richard88]

Glad we're lightning them up on the PP. That's the best way to punish them if they want to get physical.

 

[katfude]

Koharski still f***ing that chicken. You're wrong, asshole.

 

[Shinjuku Calling]

Why is this moron on TV after getting it completely wrong? How about explain why you were wrong? The ego on these f***ing refs.

 

[Thghtfulshadow]

Hes pretty bad. Both the goals today were shit even Josi shot from the point.

He is not that bad. HOWEVER, he is playing that bad right now.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Cliche but the Avs have to close this one out. Preds will be giving it their all this period. Don't give them any life.

Cliche you say?

 

[JLo217]

Wtf happened to Kuemper? Just

 

[Spleenless Wonder21]

I don’t want to close this out with Cliche.

 

[The Kingslayer]

And if he shuts them out in the 3rd, unlikely, but for sake of tap dancing in between periods... what will you give up, like you know, lent? Heh.

If Francouz is playing and shuts them out in the third i'll send someone in this thread a Francouz young guns rookie card.

 

[MonsterMack]

Can't "stop on a dime" when an opponent is pushing you

 

[Avaholic19]

He made contact yes, but they are acting like he was falling on top of him. Their skates touched. Pleeeaase

 

[21]

The first goal Francouz gave up was awful but he has also made three big point blank saves. He had no chance on Josi's goal.

The shot from Josi was decent as well.

 

[pont]

Sorry as I know this was probably discussed earlier, but I saw Darcy left due to a stick in the eye. Any updates?

 

[The Kingslayer]

He is not that bad. HOWEVER, he is playing that bad right now.

Hes been bad for half the season. he had a really good run early in the season. If he can play like that the Avs will be fine but he has been shit since that contract was signed.

 

[Balthazar]

plenty of space there, surprised that it doesnt happen more often

 

[wayninja]

Koharski still f***ing that chicken. You're wrong, asshole.

And still bitching about GI

 

[crue7]

If Francouz is playing and shuts them out in the third i'll send someone in this thread a Francouz young guns rookie card.

Might as well frame it already

 

[sethro109]

That old man simply can't be wrong on this! He doesn't care what argument you give him.

 

[AvsFan29]

What a moron

 

[Miri]

Hes pretty bad. Both the goals today were shit even Josi shot from the point.

He was screened on that Josi goal. The puck flew around his head off the crossbar. He was only going to catch that if it hit him straight into head.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

100% agree. Even if it's accidental, the player knows their stick is caught in the mask..from the play, there was almost 3 seconds where the blade was in Kuemper's mask.

How is it that you know when your stick gets caught in the boards or between a skate blade and holder yet you are clueless when it's caught in a goalies' cage?

Total bullshit.

 

[Avsboy]

Lehk making snow isn't relevant. If he's holding off the Nashville D from pushing him into Ingram, he'll make snow

 

[drhiii]

NO WAY that was circumstantial..... These guys touch and feel for their lumber is so finely tuned they can stick handle in a phone booth, knock a bat out of mid air, conduct an appendectomy in full flight.

He must not have drawn blood, as that would have been at least a double minor. Or to all you refs out there.... what could, should it have been if...?
