L’Avalanche du Colorado a eu ses chances, mais n’a pas pu percer contre les Stars de Dallas, dont un vieil ennemi en la personne de Matt Duchene a trouvé le fond des filets pour mettre fin à la série en six matchs. Les Avs ont semblé trouver leur jeu au cours des deux derniers matchs, mais c’était trop peu, trop tard, car ils avaient besoin de tant de choses pour bien se passer pendant trois matchs consécutifs contre une équipe de Stars très forte. La question est donc : que se passe-t-il maintenant ? Il y a beaucoup de questions autour de cette équipe de l’Avalanche à l’approche de l’intersaison.

See you on down the road.
Thanks again Val
It’s naive to put Val in lineups for next year . I don’t think avs fans are understanding psychology or addiction. First psychology – you have to be 105 percent focused mentally for this pinnacle of hockey where the game is near perfect . Losing a key player to addiction for a second time deja vu is a psychological harpoon that is nearly incompatible with winning this cup , you just can’t have any major emotional blow when the endeavor requires laser sharp focus. Second is addiction – his substance abuse knocked him out of two playoffs. Getting right back into hockey and playing in another Stanley cup will almost be certain to relapse again . His risk will be so high that it is almost certain in a person that did it twice . The only way to get him through a Stanley cup would be to require a chaperone and curfew for the entire cup .
Otter Won This Game,Especially In The 2 OT…Go Stars
Goal tender interference is not solely whether a player is in the crease. A player can stop a goalie from making a play outside of the crease. In this case Duchene bumped Geogiev and ended up tying up his stick so he could not easily get to his right.
“This rule is based on the premise that an attacking player’s position, whether inside or outside the crease, should not, by itself, determine whether a goal should be allowed or disallowed. In other words, goals scored while attacking players are standing in the crease may, in appropriate circumstances be allowed.
Goals should be disallowed only if: (1) an attacking player, either by his positioning or by contact, impairs the goalkeeper’s ability to move freely within his crease or defend his goal;”
Avs biggest issue was in goal, that was answered. Front office did make this team better, some of the moves made, really didn't cost future of the team in the win now window. Just like last year, its goes to key guys injured and/or missing. Not blaming it on anyone, but a little more luck who knows. I feel the superstars were playing a little to safe, playing like 3rd liners, which messed up some of time of attacks. Players weren't sure if superstars weren't going to make a play or dump it in. So it cost a delay on puck retrieval.. Most of the chances came from the 3rd line, just no finish. Take another step back and hope for a better season next year. Have great summer!!
Don’t reccomd ding a drnking game everytime Kyle nods
I started listening to your show a few weeks ago. Pretty good overall.
This one I had to bail on, might as well go work for the Stars 😒
I get a review is needed for the team to assess the problems but this is rubbing salt in a wound.
No captain for two years now. Big Val just quits on us again this postseason. This series could have went totally different but you cannot win the Cup every season. We will be back next season tho, trust that.
I have to say it took me a day to get over my disappointment of this season, but even if this year is over, it isn't the end…to be continued. So my final Band-Maid sound check has to be Endless Story https://youtu.be/Za1y-RRVd70?si=HndDXfHi21W_Pnua
Stars win 3-1 in OT. That was not the worst call ever but its defo top 20. All jokes aside. We were just too deep for the avs. The mins on your forwrds. You basically really only had two lines. We can rotate 4 lines. Avs 2 lines are probably the best in hockey. And i know the NHL wants to act like nothing happened, BUT as a Stars fan Im telling all you Avs fans Val is incredibly talented but he has demons. I really hope he doesn't just disappear back to Russia. We drafted him 1st round i think #10. Look I have demons too, but youd be better off letting him go. Hes young (kinda) but he needs help. Look at Wyatt he just turned 21 hes going to put some wins on the board. Regardless I dont hate the Avs. I respect your franchise. Vegas can go eat a d!ck
not being able to win faceoffs in the ots really killed us i think we won like 2 and they were dzone ones , sad , but at least we aint worrying about goaltender next year thats for sure , georgie played his heart out all playoffs minus game one ,and god pls dont let the oilers win game 7 dont need to hear from those fans anymore lol
The puck didnt just scoot towards Duchene. If you watch all the angles is was a great pass by Pavelski.
There’s no turning back with Val.
to chris; first little rant 3 cups in 30 years im pretty sure no one else has won more right , couple at 3 aswell ill take that 🙂 .
i hope praise gives it one more kick with us , one full season would be nice .like hey it took bourque that full season 😛
The only thing that surprises me is the more well rested team got totally out worked and our hustled in the two OT periods. I guess conditioning and depth of lineup should be the main focus going forward?
I loved how the Avalanche played in this second round of the playoffs. The Avalanche need desperately a better group of players to play in the 3rd and 4th line just like what the Dallas Stars have. The team needs to see some home grown players instead of finding talent in the free agency pool. Val Nichuskin is a cancer on the team. Should Val return to the team then you will see the locker room turn toxic. Yes Landeskog will return but his offensive numbers will not return. I am happy with how this playoffs ended . Thank you Awesome Sauce for helping the Avalanche this Playoff season.
Last song, the offspring – worst hangover ever…we never gonna win again, until next season begins, we never gonna win again 🙂
is it possible to buy gabe out , let him heal , then he could resign for a lower amount like the min lol since he got paid , is that legal ? cause that would free up alotta cap space for us , not sure it is legal but hey its thought lol
yea good pick kyle , man overboard 🙁
Can’t win ‘em all I guess 😢
Guess the theme for this season was consistently inconsistent
Thoughts now into the off-season
Lands I think is a bit more cut and dry, he’s either back for game one and all is ok. If not then the convo of a C needs to be had. I know we have plenty of leaders in the room but having the overall leader will help. FYI I’m banking on Landy being back.
Now Val……….its unanimous we all wish him the best and hope he gets the help he needs. But from purely business, can he be trusted by front office? Even some of the team eluded to it. Would they want him back? It’s going to be a lot for front office to handle. One question I have about it. Val is suspended for 6 months minimum and which time he has to enter the programme. Does that mean he wouldn’t even be able to go back home?
Appreciate you guys being there all season long, it ended too quickly
You got beat by a better team. You calling Dallas "nothing special" and comparing them to the islands in a podcast last week makes this all the more sweeter. Get rekt.
I’m just going to put this out there, I know Georgie played better the later it got into the playoffs. But finishing with under .900 and with a GAA of basically 3.00 (dropped just below because of the overtime game, was a little above all series)which for the record are his NORMAL STAT LINES. We weren’t ever going to win the cup. This team can’t be expected to score 4+ goals EVERY game in the post season
I'm so disappointed that the AVs lost. But I have to agree that the better team won!
This series was won in game 4, when we all know what happened, Dallas was the better team but if you took their rookie 53 out in the middle of this playoff round I’m not sure they would of recovered either! Their G was great in game 4 and 6 the rest of the games the bounces went his way, go back and look at the games and tell me he was the better goalie in this playoff round, he wasn’t he was on the winning team! I’m not convinced that if they play Van and Demko is back that they will win and if he can out play a goalie who’s a top G
And also the second MacFarland season as GM ends in failure – the ghost of the second round exits is back! It is hilarious that, in the end, Georgiev was the best Avs player in the Dallas series. The Stars were the better team despite playing 7 games round 1 compared to one week off for the Avs. What this series showed, two world-class players and the rest of average players could not be a TEAM. Should the Avs pay Rantanen double-digit millions in his next contract? So glad that my born-again Christian brother Matt Duchene scored the series winner – God bless you, Matt!
I mentioned Higher Truth the other day and love your tune choices. Two years in a row getting smothered by great defensive teams. Really , Dallas gives you nothing and the Avs couldn't figure it out . Nate said it postgame and he was right . Didn't score enough, and when they needed a goal……one goal they couldn't find it .
This sucks guys..
We absolutely have to trade Mikko. He's lazy and often sluggish on both sides. His stats cover up a lot of his shortcomings, and his stats are inflated by being on this team.
Dallas fan who has massive respect for the Av’s. I thought that after we played a long, very physical 7 game series v LV that we wouldn’t get past the rested Avs. Glad to see we were the deeper, better team in the end.
I don’t think you can underestimate the loss of Val. He an absolute beast. Hope he can get his personal life sorted out.
Feeling good going forward v the winner of Van/Edm.
GO STARS!!

if everyone is back, if everyone is cap conscious and is prioritizing being on a team pushing for a championship then i like our roster. i think people are overlooking the hole LOC left with his injury this season. Super versatile, can move up and down the lineup and a fantastic penalty killer
What happened boys? Cant win at home, best home team in the league.. Smh
Just remember boys they should have been swept by the stars
Chris Cornell did not kill himself. Great epi, gents. Go Stars.
Not happy the Avs got bounced, but relieved that the Avs didn't advance because of a very iffy goalie interference call. If the Avs advanced, there would always be an asterisk attached to it. So at least we avoided that. The Avs are good. Very good. Stars were better. Period.
After yalls fans throwing popcorn n shit at me n my wife for celebrating the 3rd period goal. I am thrilled you lost, some TRASH fans out here in Colorado. Hitting my wife with Pom poms, just garbage energy.
How long of a leash is MacFarland getting here? 2 seasons gone and he’s back to being a loser. Sakic is the one that won the Cup as GM don’t forget. I’m not interested in watching this guy ice another small ass, soft ass team just for this dumb “speed only” strategy. You just got beat by team that played a brutal 7 gm series and lost to them in 6 in 2OT…because they’re bigger, meaner(listen to Brad Marchand comments), balanced in size and skill. They’re the Avs of 2 years ago. Stop with speedy weak shit MacFarland! Get some guys built for playoffs
Stars fan here! I enjoy your podcast and it was a great series between both teams!
At least our jerseys are a million times better. That thumbnail really showcases this.
LOA…
You guys gave us a great season, and amazing outlet to really talk as fans…
Thank you for the 2023-2024 season❤❤
But!!!
I am so proud of our boys and they really fought as best as they could. This jagged little pill is hard to swallow because of who won it for Dallas. I can take that its over, but man that one hurt.
But now the conversation is all about McDavid, and THAT irritates me because if Mackinnon and Kucherov do not get a fair shot at the hart i will lose my soul!!
Wow is that a Grateful Dead tee shirt I saw them in Telluride town park back in the day what a scene that was
This is the kind of year where you ponder the what ifs. What if landy was ready to play, LOC didn't get injured, Val did playoff things instead of Val things. One too many cuts to keep up with Dallas. I wish duchene continued failure in his journey around the league as a rental chasing a cup
Shaggy, Shaggy, Shaggy. Your pick for your last song is absolutely perfect. I LOVE Man Overboard. Especially as the last song on The Mark, Tom, and Travis Show. There really was so much more that I wanted and needed. God, what a song. Blink is my all time favorite band. The magic that was captivated in 2022 when they acknowledged the whole All The Small Things connection then Mark showed up
at Ball, the memories. Very sad ending. I feel like our window is starting to close.
