5 game suspension for Kaskisuo for this extremely accurate bottle throw

For the third year in a row. Mark Stone is ready to play game 1 of the playoffs, after being injured since the trading deadline and out, allowing Vegas to spend his cap hit elsewhere.

I don't care if you disagree or not, but a large portion of the Nazem Kadri hate is racially motivated. It is. The mass dunkings just happens way easier if you stand out in a white sport. Six suspensions in almost 800 games doesn't stand out.

Evander Kane were actively trying to hurt someone at the end of game 2 when the game was lost. Then he takes out Kadri for the series ONE MINUTE into game 3 with a predatory play. These are the type of hockey players the game needs to get rid off.

I know I can sound like a broken record on this, but Jared Bednar deserves a lot more credit than he gets. People say the roster is amazing, but a good portion of it was players who were considered washed up or bad gets (rightly or wrongly) that are now flying under Bednar.

The 2C fiasco. They paid Manson 4.5M to stay, rather than giving Kadri 6.5-7M and save 2M elsewhere.
Spent 4M on RyJo, then pay a 1st to dump him. Gave up Byram for Mittelstadt. Then traded Mittelstadt+2nd for a 3C on a BAD contract and trade Ritchie+1st for Nelson who now walks

This wouldnt have gone this far If Berube, Bortuzzo and Binnington acted like adults.
NHL’s Bill Daly on alleged threats towards Nazem Kadri. “We take threats made to any of our Players or other Club personnel seriously. We are in touch with St. Louis Police Department and they are employing enhanced security procedures both at the arena and in the hotel”.

I'll say it again. And people will call me soft again. But there is no reason for players to take off the cage/full shield when they turn pro. Grand father it in like you did with helmets and later visors.

The dream clinching Stanley Cup for me? OT. Landeskog carries the puck into the zone on his LW, rounds net, finds Erik Johnson jumping up into the play and one times it into the net.
The two longest tenured Avs players bringing it home.

Absolutely insane that the Blues went this far, the fans and not the team you might say. The comments from Berube and Bortuzzo causes this, and the actions of Binnington.
From the #Avs: “The Avalanche organization is aware of threats made toward Nazem Kadri and is working with local law enforcement to investigate.”

Landeskog says he has no problem with Ekholm, he likes him, but he was going after the teams best player and "I can't allow that".
Gabe also says he would have done the same for Ekholm if it happened on Team Sweden. But tonight he was an Av, and Ekholm a Pred.

If the Avs sign Ehlers it should not bo at the expense of Marty Necas in my opion. When he first arrived people were raving about him, some even said it was an upgrade over Rantanen. He is worth more than we are paying for him and only aged 26. Keep.

I actually don’t want us to sign Kadri, it makes much more sense to spend that money on the refs which doesn’t count towards the cap and has a good on ice impact

Avs fans really aren't used to losing anymore. You lose a one goal game on a wednesday night with half the lineup on IR and feel the need to draw big conclusions from it. It's hockey, and the season is 82 games. We are gonne lose some nights. Probably around 30 games.

Same thing happened to PK Subban getting booed or trashed on social media constantly. The excuse was always that he had played dirty before or whatever. The mass dunkings afterwards just gets way, way more harsh than for others.

Wouldn’t it be smarter to use the cap space to acquire bad contracts in exchange for valuable pieces in order to reach the cap floor instead of signing their own crappy players to ridiculous prices driving up the market for themselves and everyone else?
Jason Dickinson, signed to a 2x$4.25M extension by CHI, is a defensive bottom six centre who went on a shooting tear at just the right time. Good for him. #Blackhawks

More than half the season is now played and Avs are in 3rd place out of 32 teams, and there has been a lot of criticism and question marks raised about the Avs. Sometimes it might be a good idea to stop and think if the expectations we have on this team are fair.

Let’s get one thing straight. Avs used to be a joke, a laughing stock around the league. With Joe Sakic at the helm. Then they hired Chris MacFarland and Joe started listening to him. They quickly became one of the best run teams in league and it led to a cup.

With a thin market of 2C-options and almost no assets to trade for one, signing Brock Nelson on a 3-year deal is very positive news for the Avs. Even if they overpaid a little.

When teams like Tampa and Avs have a killer PP, the refs get more hesistant off giving them a PP, cause it holds more "value".

Manson had an awful night individually but it's not coincidence that whoever Jack Johnson plays with, gets worse. Individually Jack looks OK but I think Ryan Murray would do much less overall damage to the defense core.

Georgiev not only can't come up with a big save, but just insists on letting goals at the worst times. Just when you have gotten momentum back, or just before a period ends.
Yes, bad play by Makar, bad penalty by Wood. But... 5 goals in 16 shots is never good.

Chris Johnston speculates that Avs is the most logical destination for Elias Lindholm.
When it comes to price he speculates a 1st round pick and Bowen Byram should do it. There is also talk Lindholm turned down 9M extension on a 7-8 year deal this summer.
