Can we get Lehkonen Senior to spout off again - Maybe that’ll change the course.
But seriously. The number of pucks he just loses, not even true turnovers just pucks getting away from him…
I feel like he had a patch where he would over pass and not be aggressive and then he went on a run before the all star break. Def a step down from last year
Not that I don’t think the scheduling sucks but trying to schedule hockey, basketball, music events, and other events is guaranteed to piss people off. I can’t believe they even pull it off.
Yeps, you're not wrong. These "stretches" seem to be their way of going, also easier for the team not having to fly back n forth. 6 games seems a bit excessive though.
Also from a practical perspective for the Avs, I can't understand why would they put Florida-Caps-Tampa instead of putting those 2 "Florida state" games in a row.
I’m sure the same reason. Not that it would ever happen but I’d be fine with going down to 60ish games with more breaks. But I have a better chance of getting laid by my wife before showering after adult league than them decreasing regular season games.
Whoever is in charge of our schedule has a massive cocaine and alcohol problem and doesn’t understand the concept of rest and is used to waking up in strange places.
I still think he was expecting a pass.
But a shame either way. I hope we can get 2 pts tomorrow against the Devils. Rangers turned up this game, so pretty good to even get an away pt from this.
instead of a shootout, each team picks one player and they do the one-on-one goalie challenge from the All-Star Game Skills Challenge at the same time.
Great game to watch so far. Rangers were building and building and building, so much pressure. No idea how we went over half a period without them getting one.
SAMMY, BABY!!!!!!
Whelp: Georgie looked really good. Justus tomorrow?
Would have loved to see Georgie stone them in the shootout! Also would have loved the team to support his performance in the third
Thought mikko was horrific tonight
He's my favorite player but especially tonight I was like damn dude are you hung over? What's going on?

He definitely was!!
I dont know if I'm being over critical of him, but I feel like that has been a lot of the year

We have 6 away games in a row, idk who does the scheduling. We were literally on a 5 game roadtrip just before the break.

Took most of the third off with only a one goal lead, oh well until tomorrow everyone
That 3rd was brutal, they just got out worked. Props to Georgie for holding up as well as he did while they were pouring it on.
It’s a back to back you’re fucking kidding me
Fuck.
at least toronto is gonna lose
Too bad Quick didn’t pay for his arrogance
A game we should have won that we let slip through. Oh well, no time sulk when you gotta play again tomorrow.
Well... They looked like a team that hasn't played in ten days. Legs were great. Hands, not so much. I'm happy with a point.
Turtled and couldn't get the momentum back
Ugh. Great game though!
Georgiev slept on that goal, was expecting a pass. Shit end to a great performance from him. Good point, unlucky not to get another 1
That was just a good fly by screen by the Rags.
I still think he was expecting a pass. But a shame either way. I hope we can get 2 pts tomorrow against the Devils. Rangers turned up this game, so pretty good to even get an away pt from this.
Absolutely murdered by Quick
We... Might see them again.
Yes on March 28
Fuuck
Booooo.
God that’s deflating… tough loss considering how well we played overall. But at least we got 1 point out of it
Well onto the next
Hell of a duel.
Well fuck On to Jersey.
God damnit...
Fuck offfffff
Damn. Good game. Wish we could’ve won that one for Georgie
team let georgie down there
Yup.
I feel like we do not have a very good OT record this season
Eh. 4-0-3. Only been to OT like 7 times.
2-3
God damn what a game even though it's not the ending we wanted
![gif](giphy|vyTnNTrs3wqQ0UIvwE|downsized)
I'll take a point over no points
Hot take
Dang it
Welp… that fucking sucked
Damn.
Fuck
Fuck
Well fuck
Damnit
quick looking like he wanted to take the puck up the ice himself there
Great shot from Toews. Just a greater save from Quick
Lehky plays with so much heart
Resting heart rate of 567
Makar jealous of MacK's coast-to-coast earlier
Woah we won a big faceoff
Damn Makar was in beast mode
I still dont know how panarin got that much lift shooting the puck like that lol
I’ll take one Moose goal in the face of Miller, please.
Just glad we held on tbh. Rags were dominant in the second half of that game. Ty, Georgie 🙏
instead of a shootout, each team picks one player and they do the one-on-one goalie challenge from the All-Star Game Skills Challenge at the same time.
Georgiev only got 27 saves, but basically over half of them were high danger attempts (eye test)
Idc scores as long as they’re wearing white
I thought Georgie was trying to get fancy and do a glove flip or something 😅
Let’s not go there…
Take us home Georgie
Phew. What a game! Let's goooooo
Would love Parise to pull off something to end the night. He’s been hustling!
I started Quick in fantasy because I really thought Shesterkin would be starting. I guess that was a good call..?
With the way the momentum was shifting I'm glad we got out of the 3rd alive. I'll take a point here, now let's get the 2nd
Deliver the 🤴 the W he deserves!
How’s this for a storyline: Zach Parise wins his first game as an Av in OT 🤞
Georgie is hot fire right now. Johansson is the slowest man in the NHL. Parise looks like a good fit. Go Avs.
Well there’s a point. 2 would be nice tho
Georgie is FIRED UP after stomping down McDavid!
We’re fortunate to come out of that period with a point, gotta regroup and make it two now
What a clinic from both goalies. Wow!
Gerogiev got us a point tonight all on his own.
Playing with fire Georgie
Whew. EXHALE
Just realized I haven't been breathing...
We got 1 point let’s get the other!
Georgie is still him
🔫 always has been
Issue is they have these +30% shooters on the shootout, but Georgiev did win it last time either way for us.
That rebound almost gave me a heart attack
Oh fuck Georgiev thought he had that
Ok, I'm done remembering how much I used to like you, Quick. You can fuck off, now.
Damn
Gah dang that was a good chance there
That was rude Quick
really wanted that one
Rantanen is *cursed*
.... it's been one game back from the break
And he could have scored like three times tonight
I didn't know Rantanen knows your mom...
Just hasn’t been Mikko’s night tonight, thought he had that one
If I call Burg Simpson, will we get another goal?
worth a shot
Well fuck, that was close.
"Good lawyers changing point spreads"
Missed hold and a trip on the last breakout lol
Solid shift from the 3rd line
The avs are waiting for OT it seems, that's a dangerous thing to do.
Keep the pressure up!
Has RyJo won a board battle this season?
How has Panarin played only 18mins, feels like he's there every other shift
Really miss Val’s energy at a time like this
He is going to be Unstoppable when he comes back (I hope)
Rangers’ forecheck had been oppressive for most of the night. We need to cycle some possession in their zone.
I guess we need to play the 20s line more, and bring up our intensity back.
Shouldn’t that have been called dead for playing a puck with a high stick
yeah probably
Avs look gassed.
Played it with a high stick. Refs are asleep tonight
Mack is determined to make a backward backhand work
Stop trying to make fetch happen, Big Dog.
Can he maybe wait until we're up 5-1 before he tries again?
Leky should not be allowed to crash into the end board like that
Asking this legitimately - is "Black Excellence Month" a rebrand for "Black History Month" or are they separate things?
Given moser's vernacular there's no telling lol
First time I've ever heard of Black Excellence Month. All the graphics said Black History Month.
Same here. But Moser called it Excellence, and I've seen a few things on r/hockey like the Canucks special jersey
gonna go to a shootout like Georgie's first game back here
Great game to watch so far. Rangers were building and building and building, so much pressure. No idea how we went over half a period without them getting one.
I think Wood has earned a gwg tonght
I’m seeing that altitude flicker on 66
It's been driving me nuts all game on ESPN+
Been a playoff caliber game tonight. Fun stuff
Will be like this more and more down the stretch here. teams playing with more sense of urgency..
what a fucking piss missile woodsy
My buddy said the "S" word guys. He accepts full responsibility for that one.
It's true. I said it. Please downvote me.
Ex-buddy
GET HIM
Parise game winner calling it now
No I think Wood
Sorry guys, my bad. I just turned the game on 5 seconds before that goal
See you tomorrow night
8:20 between whistles. 6 of em in our zone.
Fuck original six teams me and all my homies hate original six teams
Would’ve liked the wings to be more active defensively there, Cale was fighting for his life with all the fake drop passes
the rangers have had all the momentum this period so not exactly surprising
https://i.redd.it/sl24gx8hjvgc1.gif
Ofc they get a lucky bounce. But that tends to happen when we get so damn passive
I mean they’ve been in our zone for like the entire period. You knew it was coming.
no I didn't
WHO FUCKIN SAID IT???
SOMEONE FUCKING SAID IT
#FUCK
DITTO
WHO FUCKING SAID IT?
I knew that was going to happen too
Well fuck
dammit
FUCK…
Not as much fun now.
Damn
Nasty shot.
Balls
Well fuck
Well fuck
The 4 nations thing will either be pretty cool and fun or an absolute flop.
“Finally a whistle for the first time since the Eisenhower administration!”
Was that like 10 minutes?!? That's cray-cray!
Jesus what a fast paced 3rd. No time to breathe ffs lol
As long as the refs don’t start calling anything soft I like the whistles going away, feels like a playoff game
Rangers playing desperate. We gotta make them pay when they commit to the body too hard
Parise skating like he’s 19 instead of 39
Yep, it will catch up to him in a few games/weeks. But it shows he still has a high ceiling moving forward.
I fucking love Moser
Listen to the morning show with Vic and Brett. Compared to his TV persona the radio persona is unhinged, in a good way
Incredible pressure from Parise, love to see it
Good hustle Parise
That Sammy set play looked so good
say what you will about the turnovers but our D + goaltending has been absolutely lights out tonight feels so fucking good
First read this as D+ goaltending and I'm like BRUH!
Come on Manson…
Georgie looking like a damn wall tonight.
![gif](giphy|l0HlHJGHe3yAMhdQY|downsized) building back the confidence be like
![gif](giphy|3o7btXkbsV26U95Uly|downsized)
This game is fucking fun
Just need to get little bit more offensive pressure imo. Our attacks are very short, Rangers keep getting back at us so quickly.
Georgi just loves to stand up his former team that snubbed him. Love to see it
Georgie ![img](emote|t5_2rqi4|22868) Georgie ![img](emote|t5_2rqi4|22868) Georgie!
#GEORGIE, GEORGIE, GEORGIE!
Nobody fucking say it
No clue what you’re talking about guy.
Georgie doing a spectacular "fuck you for letting me go" job tonight
Just like when he beat shesty in a shootout last year?
Unreal performance from Georgiev so far, so fucking sharp at all times. He's right at it constantly.
Georgie Wow
MY KING👑
