Well that wasn't worth getting up in the middle of the night for........
The Avs were good, we were bad. What annoys me more is that even as they didn't let up and still went for it, we just couldn't muster an effort to lay a glove on them. Perhaps they didn't let up as we challenged the Landeskog goal, that being said it was embarrasing the effort towards the end.
The one shred of positivity I can pull is that you don't get that sort of game and score more than once every couple of years. This is team meeting time and time to start again. We've got enough time to repair the damage and you know what beating these in the play off's now would taste a little sweeter.

The coaching overhaul is looking like a big F right now, especially on D. They are getting worse as this season continues.

This team is way too easy to play against.
If only they had someone like an Evander Kane. Or a Corey Perry. But those guys don't become available very often.

I'm just glad they have Matius ekholm locked up for another 3 years! NHL dmen with serious soft tissue injuries usually get better into their late 30s right??
I'm not sure Trent Frederick is an NHLer at this point, but he's definitely comfortable out there. Zero urgency or push back.

Still the most head scratching contract ever. Didn’t understand it then. Don’t understand it now. What a nothing player. 8 more years! Yay!

I have a feeling that expecting pickard to bail out Skinner 1 or more times in another playoff run might not work this time. Might have used up all the Pickard magic last year.
Lots of crap wrong with this team but one issue I don’t think we can escape without a big change
