Oettinger's been on top of his game but so was Hellebuyck coming in. Dallas is a big,physical team and this might be why the Avs acquired Duhaime......look for him to be a disruptor in this series. Dallas also plays a solid defensive game but MacKinnon,Makar and Rantanen had 9pts each in 5gms against the stingiest team in the league,they'll score in this series too. Lehkonen had 8pts,Nichushkin had 7pts,Mittelstadt had 6pts and Toews and Mason had 5pts each....the eight players were a combined +39!

Who knows what will happen, but you called out all the reasons one has to figure the Avs to rep the West in the Cup final. |

First time watching full game of Avs in playoffs. Gotta agree with Bob, Duhaime would be a nice bottom 6 Ahole would check a lot of boxes.

Great game by Otter . Stars locked it down nicely. Avs at end seemed to wait on the other guy to make a play. Poor board battle when it was 2-1 .

9 goals in 8 games for the avs this playoff year tied with hyman for the league lead.
big blow to the avs chances..

ok...first and foremost i hope he gets the help he needs.
but if i was an avs fan, it would be hard not to be very pissed of. 2 playoffs in a row this happens.
unless i'm reading it wrong, it sounds like jack johnson feels the same.

Wow, Nichuskin is only in the 2nd year of his 8 year contract.
So do the Avs do what the Kings did with Richards and just terminate the contract?

So do the Avs do what the Kings did with Richards and just terminate the contract? according to an article I read last night, that is not an option, I believe due to his participation in the assistance program. now, if he fails this round or is not reinstated by the league when he is done, maybe they can. |

In any event, the Avs must have been crushed by losing Nichuskin as they looked absolutely horrible against Dallas. They hadn't been looking too good before that, but look like toast now. I thought they would beat Dallas, but like some other predictions I have made this one didn't come true either.

Damn, that is a tough spot to be in for the Avs. Guys like Johnson already sound like they're severely pissed at him. Can you imagine how McKinnon is reacting right now? That dude bites your head off when you sneeze wrong in the locker room. |
