GDT: WCQF: Game 5 - Colorado Avalanche @ Dallas Stars | 7:30 MT

Another shift where the Stars can't handle their forecheck and cycle. Just keep dumping it in and competing.
 
Another Makar shot too low right into the glove.

Get this dude some viagra so he can get it up already! These corners have been open all series.

Absolutely comical that people are blaming Bednar for Mackinnons performance. Nathan Mackinnon has 2 gears. His first gear is a top player in the world, and the second is a floater who handles the puck like a frag grenade. We’re lucky that we often see the first gear but we’ve all seen the second gear far too many times. Quit blaming injury, Bednar and ice time. We’ve seen this since his rookie season, it’s nothing new.

So what’s the fix when you see such inconsistency in the team’s play? The Avs have gotten some bad breaks but they aren’t playing well. Isn’t it the HC’s job to have the players ready to play from the get go? Granted the HC isn’t on the ice but inconsistent play is a sign the HC’s message isn’t getting through anymore. Anyway, let’s hope the Avs can score another this period.
 
Im pretty sure the last time Makar got a hard shot through to the goalie, dinosaurs still roamed the earth. What's up with his shot? It looks so weak and not dangerous at all. Where are the wristers you could hear dent the back boards. Trying to aim too much because he missed so much in game one?
 
Dallas is double teaming MacK every time he touches the puck.... the other Avs on the ice need to stop watching him and he should quick return pass to his line mates. And the D needs to give the forwards closer support and provide an option with a quick shot.

Seems (like games 2 & 3) that the D has been told to play conservative and not push the offense.

Shit! It's 3 - 1. Black wood needs to step up and bail out his team on any odd man rush Dallas has.

ACTIVATE Makar and Toews alternatively
 
It was all the ones high and wide that made Cale aim safe and low, but you need the perfect shot. Just do it Cale!!
