L’Avalanche du Colorado s’est sortie aussi mal qu’on aurait pu le penser. Après une défaite de 6-2 contre les Islanders de New York, les Avs ont entamé une saison 0-3-0 pour la première fois depuis la saison 2008-2009. Les choses ne vont pas bien en ce moment. Ce qui est plus inquiétant, c’est que même si les deux premiers matchs ont été bons offensivement et que les gardiens de but étaient le problème, ce match a été un peu un renversement, les gardiens de but étant bons et tout le reste s’effondrant.

Terrible hockey
20 goals against in 3 games…yeeesh
Oilers n Avs trying to ‘one up’ or better yet ‘one down’ each other, every game!
someone needs to tell bednar preseason is over , and start juice next game , and maybe joe needs to pick up husso off waivers aswell .
im a goalie , it was a good poke check , when u go for one u wanna be as close to the guy as possible because if u miss he cant just pick the puck up if u somehow fan on the poke check also helps when u go for one like that you make ur legs into a v-shape to cover area aswell , its no different when u poke check in front and around the net u wanna get him quick and close so he has no chance to recover the puck and ur hung out to dry , so yea it was just bad luck cause if whats his name is turned slightly one way the puck just goes between his legs.
They looked out worked last night. The Defense on the ice in 3 games has been a dismal. Very Ugly Game. It has not been a great start but luckily the season is very young.
You guys can have Grubauer back but we're not keeping any salary
Sorry guys but this was also the goalie thing! Did u notice how the team reacted after that bad 1st goal? When you don’t trust your goalie your just waiting for something to go in, last year they had to come back 29 , this year they can’t do that cause they’re missing 4/6 of the top 6 if the goalie doesn’t have to be great but if he only had a .905save % they could of at least got 5/6 pts,,, PS the poke checks , as a goalie you miss that , you look stupid, concentrate on stopping the puck! He has 32 saves but his save % is well below 900 yet again! The team was bad , but in my view, it’s because everyone is trying to do too much cause they don’t trust the guy in between the pipes , if it’s a real bad give away or it’s a routine shot!
Rants and Makar looked like shadows of their usual selves. After that 1st period, there was no urgency or energy left. At least we had Colton and Mack delivering some electric hits.
You can't start Georgiev next game, if only to shake it up and retain some energy.
Glad I went to the bar for MNF and didn't get to watch another gross L.
I've wanted 40 to challenge shooters more, but not wild & unnecessary poke checks! Maybe next time just get a bit outside the crease? Where is Parkkila?
Every game gets better than the previous one. These loses started after the 2024 All Star Game so you seen these Avalanche play this way all year long. Where have you guys been ? Awesome Sauce
Goaltending is the reason all of this is happening. You can see it in the body language of the bench after either of the Tenders lets in a softy. WTF was that 1st D Pairing???????
Man, I wish there could be one single sports podcast, not advertising f*cking gambling…
4-8 4-6 2-6 looks nearly like a three sets loss in tennis. 20 goals in 3 games – Yikes! Perhaps MacFarland gets some sweat on his forehead? Lankinen was available, yesterday Husso – start Annunen vs Boston and if he fails, too, GM MUST act no matter the costs. Why in the world did the GM get Kylington? He got not one player who could make this team better – we now see the results of cheap player acquisitions.
Soundcheck: Crazy Horse, from "Rust Never Sleeps" – "Hey Hey My My".
Ya I love the altitude guys, but I really noticed them pushing the cool aide last night. They are in a tough spot they have to be positive and bring hope to the fan base. but I couldn't stop thinking about the line from the movie Major League…"Just a bit outside". So far that line has been the Avs season in a nutshell.
The Avs have a -10 goal differential through the first three games. Something needs to change.
Edit: I hate to think it, because Bednar has done fantastic things for this organization, but between him, and the changing of the GM, this team has felt abnormally stagnant since Sakic's promotion
Georgy still isnt up to par, but he actually played much better this game than the other two. The rest of the team, however, forgot to sharpen their skates so they slipped and fell a million times and the percentage of successful passes was ABYSMAL. Avs D could really take a hint from the islanders and learn how to protect their net from rebounds because of lord the amount of times the puck just wandered away from an open net in the islanders zone was unbelievably frustrating.
No matter how bad your goalie is playing, you don't get to use that as an excuse to play poorly
😭😭
oOO Machismo…
This is a long read, but just understand the amount of angst I have (and probably all Avs fans have right now) and why I have no terse thoughts on this current Avs situation.
Three lousy games into the season, and I am angry, frustrated, and disillusioned too. It was so much easier to live with this team and its inability to win when it was in Quebec. Once the 1994 team lost to the Rangers, and the following season began and how it all ended in winning of the Avs first SC, everything changed… and not for the better, as a team and as a die-hard fan. As I have grown older I don't have the patience for the Avs ownership that I once had, especially since the Kroenke regime bought the team. The LaCroix years, the Sakic and Bob Hartley years, and now the current mess of an Avs team in some ways all feel related. So the immediate question I have is this, does it really matter when the first win happens?
Given what I watched last night, I can't see this team winning a game in October… it's that bad of a team. Fire the coach? Maybe. Not always the answer, and in my estimation, it won't work for the Avs. Sure, management could pin this bag of burning barf of a team on Jared Bednar. That's the way it has been in all professional sports since dirt was mud. I would tell ownership and the current GM to take a healthy look in the mirror before pulling the lever on that type of decision. Could Bednar be burned out? Sure, why not. Jared knows how to coach, how to win, and he has won everywhere he's gone… but after awhile, shelf life expires. I personally wished "expired shelf life" could be ink-jet printed on ownership's ass the same as it is for coaches and players in today's game. As I have looked at this team, since winning the Cup last, this ownership has one constant in its DNA: wasting talented players best years until figuring out what to do to win again. Sure, the m.o. of all sports franchises could be linked to that very same gene. Given what I've seen in the Kroenke realm: the Avs, Rams, Nuggets, Rapids, and Mammoth have all died on the vine after winning championships. That includes their talent too. It seems to me, and I know I'm no expert at the functional dynamics of contracts, team building, or ownership but once the championship has been won by a Kroenke team, the window is slammed shut. For me personally, is the closing of that window done on purpose by ownership? Analytics and bean counting seem to be the very bane of all professional teams, but is especially true for Kroenke owned teams.
If I could figure out the lack of fire in this team that would be the start to improving the play and current character of this Avs team. Is it MacK, Makar, or Mikko the cancer in the locker room? If I were a betting man I'd say it was the ownership and their lack of vision in computing the current goalie situation being no more important than that of the NFL running back in today's NFL; to keep it in the reality we all live in, the popular vote for the cancer affecting this current iteration of the Avs is the lack of a goalie and the rest of the team not wanting to take an injury for the current tumor in net. The total lack of effort on both ends of the ice is mystifying to me; but, without being in that cloistered circle called the Avs, who the fuck really knows?
As of right now, if I could, I'd look at trading top pieces to grab a top shelf goalie. My first trading piece would be Makar. Form follows function, and given what I saw last night he has no grit and zero grind to his game right now. Of course all of us (especially myself!) have a crappy run of determined effort in all our occupations and vocations, but at some point an honest decision has to be made internally: either buy into the job or get on down the road. I don't think Cale Makar is a grinder, or a talent on defense, and the game last night strongly suggests he lacks grit too. As small of a portrait as last night's game painted, I wanted to wait until today to see if I still felt the same. If I could become a professional contract guru my first act would be to find a way to trade Cale Makar. Contracts are inevitable, and I don't know if the Avs can find a way to NBA Cale's, eating a portion of it, and trade him… along with other pieces, or continue this dysfunctional effort until Artturi, Gabriel, and Nichushkin get back on the ice. Then the real brainiac money math begins to try and flawlessly determine if the train wreck is worth salvaging just to make the playoffs… or, pull the trigger and go get a damn goalie with better talent than what is currently on the team.
This is the price of sanity we sacrifice in order to follow a team. I have to journal on a YT site dedicated to "our" team in order to step outside of the emotional dismay I currently am feeling. It is true, hockey is always going to be a game; but, when you love the game, and especially your team, this type of season just grates the heart.
Oy-f'n-vey!
Nobody told them that preseason is over 😂😂😂😂
This is a coaching issue, Bedsy has become too complacent in his approach.
Nobody told them that preseason is over 😂😂😂😂
I thought the team defense last year took a huge step back, and this year looks even worse. They need to put a huge emphasis on team defense and playing better in front of georgiev. This is the kind of start that costs coaches jobs, ask woodcroft. Bednar needs to get this team focused and playing better.
The diving poke checks are a sign of a desperate goalie that isn’t confident. If he was confident, he would stay back and make a save. I get that the poke checks could have worked, but if Georgiev was feeling good, he would just stay put and not flop around desperately.
