Sean Walker.This is what happens when a team can ice 4 reasonable lines. Certain folks in another thread dedicated to a large antlered mammal seem to think that this team can win cups with 4 stars and zero depth. This team needs a $6M 2C. Now we have one. We finally have a 3rd line when LOC gets back. He is the key to the Roaring 20s. But Trenin / Duhaime / Cogs ( of conceivably Kovalenko is better than anything the Avs have iced in probably a decade. 4 of those 5 deserve / will demand more than league minimum. And, no, CMac can't just pick up perfectly fitting pieces each TDL.
If only there was a manner to trade away a single player, yet clear room for Mitts, Drouin ( simply a MUST re-sign) Trenin and Duhaime. Depth wins cups almost always. The last time the team was this deep, Sakic was lacing them up.
Imagine how many points Avs would have if they had a legit starting goalie this whole season.. that consired it is looking pretty good. Georgiev has been a bit better lately, but I still see No reason to play him as much as he has been playing. With Annunen avs probably wouldnt have lost more games and I would argue that Georgiev would be playing better with few less starts.. He has like 1 or 2 starts less than Saros and I see no reason for that.If the Avs could ever figure out the start of games they'd be one hell of a tough team to deal with. The fact that we win games that we are down 2 or 3 or even 4 I guess, is mind blowing.
It'd be much nicer if is we just played from the get go instead.
Our depth and 29/27 combo won us that game. Depth guys scored 2 huge goals late in the 2nd. Then 29/27 took over the 3rd and OT.
Disappointing games from the usual suspects 96, 8 and 40 were all hot garbage.
Oilers fans losing their minds right now lmao.Nate calling Sid the best in the world was completely unsolicited. Nobody asked him about Sid, he just wanted to make it known.

Easily the most douchebag fan base in hockey. I really wish the NHL went to a real playoff format of 1-8 so Edmonton never makes it out of the first round.I creep their board often for the lulz. They're like a bunch of teenage girls riddled with insecurities.
Every single time MacKinnon does something good they jump to shit on him. It really is the best compliment they could give him.
I think you need to give Justus the majority - like 8 of 11 - of the last stretch of games. First it gets Justus ready with a large stretch of games like he’s never done in the NHL before. Second, it gives George time to rest and hopefully reset.I am betting that Justus will be the starter by game 2 or 3 of the 1st round.
I feel like we are primed for another playoff run with suspect goaltending. Can lighting strike twice?I think you need to give Justus the majority - like 8 of 11 - of the last stretch of games.

Maybe like half the games, u don't want George to get rusty eitherI think you need to give Justus the majority - like 8 of 11 - of the last stretch of games.

It is terrible. Whoever designed this forum software should go back to giving handies at the dumpster behind Wendy's.Thought exactly the same. Before that, it looked it might be one of those games with no puck luck despite all the effort. But once Walker scored, i knew more goals were on the way. Was awesome. Good on Drouin.
BTW, anyone has issues with the site or its just my computer acting up? Slow page loading, sometimes that cloudflare error...

Meh, there hasn’t been a more important player to their team this year than kuch. No other player deserves it more this year and it would be a crime to see it go to someone else. I’d rather they get the awards right and try to instill/restore the integrity of winning these awards. Hopefully Mack takes the conn smyth as a consolation prize.Regardless of the Art Ross winner, which IMO could go to any of the top 3 right now just depending on how the season breaks down, Mack should still win the Hart. Especially if he ties or breaks that home point record.
The 2x 18 game point streak thing too. Just consistently throughout the year he's been the best in the league. I also love how it just irritates Tampa and Oiler fans. At this point I'm sure Mack cares more about another cup.
On the other hand, Kucherov can’t put up points without Point. Doesn’t that make Point more valuable?Bolts can barely score a goal without Kucherov getting on the board for it. IMO it has to be him followed closely by MacK-McJesus.
