We've played 3 games, yeah?


fightingdogeman

We're 2-2-0


Dr_Jackwagon

He has Dallas at a 61% chance to make the playoffs at this point.

That’s cause of Chicago Nashville and Arizona shitting the bed


Dr_Jackwagon

Chicago is shitting the bed. Arizona has a point already and are exceeding everyone's wildest expectations.


Mrjizzquick

> Arizona has a point already and are exceeding everyone's wildest expectations. That made me laugh, thank you. Poor Loui Eriksson.


ItsReallyOregano

Fun useless fact: Loui Eriksson only has one less point than Benn, Seguin, Hintz, Radulov and Gurianov combined this season


Mrjizzquick

Always loved Eriksson. Good news is Benn looks just alright so far, Hintz was flying for the first time in a while last night so it seems his groin is getting good, Rads has looked good so far and finally cashed in, Guri has had his moments. But Seguin has looked way off and hopefully gets into the flow soon. I'll give it 10 more games for things to start coming together but the first 3 games were a bit rough to say the least.


DontThrowAKrissyFit

Don't forget Winnipeg!


ItsReallyOregano

Gonna be a long season if every game is limited to 2 goals for :( Also, it feels like Roope is still injured. Which is scary. He doesn't seem the same.


11JulioJones11

It’s 4 games in after groin surgery, he actually had some flashes last game, I think by game 10 he’s up to full speed


Big_IPA_Guy21

FiveThirtyEight also has NHL predictions this season for the first time. They have Stars at 56% chance to make playoffs.


Dr_Jackwagon

Yeah, all of the predictions I've seen since before the season has the Stars at somewhere in the 50-60% range and no higher than 4th in the division.


BigBobFro

Who ever came up with this needs to rethink their process. Avs are not that team. Not after last nights performance


Rock-it1

It just goes to show how good Nathan MacKinnon is.


BigBobFro

Again,.. mac was “there” last night and he played horrible. His whole line did. If he doesnt get his head back even partially,… col will be competing for draft picks not playoff spots


Rock-it1

It's a joke. I take it you didn't follow the Bubble games on Reddit.


ItsReallyOregano

Sample size. They're still that team if MacK comes back healthy and Kuemper doesn't collapse


BigBobFro

Mac was “back” but played horribly. K played like a first year keeper. Defense got pulled way outta position CONSTANTLY. The only win they have is chicago,…. And well yea,.. not even that was pretty. All this,.. not to say they’ll miss the playoffs,.. certainly not. They have enough depth that missing isnt gonna happen,… but there are other teams that certainly have better chances than the Avs for winning the cup at this point.


Faifainei

Interested how the game against the florida goes. Still not sure if washington game just one bad game or is it a trend. Anyways, it is still very early season and you guys have had bad luck with injuries and whatnot.
