GDT: WCQF: Game 4 - Dallas Stars @ Colorado Avalanche | 7:30PM MT

[Pokecheque]

Girard with the monster performance tonight.

Don’t anyone ever tell me again he isn’t built for the playoffs or can’t handle a hard, physical forechecking team.

 

[Foppa2118]

Of course Landeskog was the one to Unlock the Brock

I thought Nelson looked like crap again, until Shelley said Gabe told him on the bench just to dump the puck in, after he turned it over at the blueline. Seemed to wake him up.

Gabe's even a leader for the old guys.

I'd also like to take a moment to offer my sincerest apology on behalf of HFAvs towards @nammerus for the Avs winning this game.

 

[The Merchant]

Insane for Landy to score at home, earn another point, 1st star and then give an absolute brick wall speech in the locker room in his second game back. Fairy tale shit

 

[drhiii]

Can't think of anyone who has missed Cap more than MacK.

MANlinski is just so good. This kid should have been playing from game 1

Girard with the monster performance tonight.

The whole team was crazy good.

I can imagine DeBoer’s message about pulling Oettinger during the second intermission was short and sweet.

“He doesn’t deserve this and with the way you idiots are playing, you don’t deserve him.

Get some rest, Otto, we need you on Monday night.”

 

[a mangy Meowth]

Guys, he called us "we"

 

[flyfysher]

DeBoer didn’t want Otter to face another 20+ shots in one period.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Parker Kelly you absolute f***ing animal

I also very much enjoyed what he did and said to Rantanen in the scrum during Dallas' PP

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Also shoutout to the guy that was saying EJ over Malinski lol.

I'm warming up more and more to the idea of Malinski as the future 2RD.

I think he's truly starting to figure out the game at the NHL speed. He honestly looked just like Makar tonight with his ability to move along the blue line and create space for himself and get his shots through traffic. And he's clearly showing he can handle the physicality just fine as well.

Unless someone gets injured EJ may have played his last NHL game

 

[flyfysher]

Nah, it was a good decision by DeBoer. These games have been tight enough as they have been, but the Stars had nothing tonight. Oettinger was great, and got shelled. He made the right decision.

Waved the white flag.

 

[Avs_19]

What a game. Straight domination from start to finish.

It’s unbelievable how good Landeskog looks. Balance is kind of iffy at times but other than that he’s mostly picking up where he left off. Incredible comeback story.

The fourth line was amazing. Drury in particular was an animal all night.

Figured Oettinger was pulled because they quit after 40 mins. Got punked that badly.

The brick wall speech... link avail anywherez?

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

I dunno how they could ever do it cap space wise but the 6 Dmen we have right now would make for an unbelievably strong group next year as well quite frankly.


Toews - Makar
Lindgren - Malinski
G - Manson



Could absolutely trust every pairing to play 20 minutes a night.

If he gets another Cup out of it I doubt he'll care.

 

[Foppa2118]

Guys DeBoer didn't rest Otter in a 3-0 game with a full period to play. He's lying.

He thought it would shake up the team and it backfired.

No I think he legitimately just forfeited the final period

He definitely looked happy, relaxed, confident.. on the bench in the 3rd.

Best I’ve seen him play. And to think a lot of us were considering trading him. I was one of them. SMH!

He's the personality hire.
