Dallas had a dangerous play in front of Raycroft. I don’t think he saw it cause he didn’t move.

Fair enough, It’s just that when I read “split feature” I got my hopes up on a VERY imaginative website feature

26 Card Jet

by Tommelot on Oct 18, 2008 12:58 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs

you can go to “Schedule,” pick a game and select “coverage” on the right. That link will show you any and all game threads and related posts linked to that event. That means if the game was between two teams represented by two SB Nation blogs, you’ll get to see the previews and threads from both of them. For the Avalanche game against the Sabres on October 25th, you’ll be able to see both our thread(s) and the game thread from Die By the Blade. Pretty cool, huh?

Maybe it’s me. When I read Joe’s explanation of this it sounded like some type of split screen or something feature. I think I interpreted this wrong.

Red Wings Suck

by texacogirl on Oct 18, 2008 1:02 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs

Oh, no I just meant that you could see the posts themselves, not necessarily have both threads running simultaneously on one window. But as long as the posts are “attached” to the “event” (the game), you’ll be able to click on the “coverage” link and see all of them linked from one screen, which is cool.

The dual-window idea will in fact work for those interested in participating in two threads at once. That’s dedication.

The Duke just said that playing with Stazzer is the same as playing with Foppa; “Find the open spot and wait for the puck to land on your stick”

Staz and Foppa do play similar styles. Stastny will probably always have way more assists than goals. Foppa was more physical (mugged) though. Makes me wonder if teams will start mugging Stastny.

InYoFace Phadouche! InYoFace

by InYoFace on Oct 18, 2008 1:04 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs

Forsberg brought a lot of that on himself. He never backed down from a confrontation, always finished his checks, and shit-talks relentlessly. Stastny is not an agitator like that.

The reason Foppa’s career has been so hampered by injury is partially due to his aggressive playing style. If we get the same level of talent out of Stastny without all the games lost to injuries, that’s fine by me!

That’s bunk. Stastny and Sakic have completely different styles and strengths. Sakic was always a playmaking sniper. Forsberg was a sniping playmaker. Stastny is probably one of the most well-rounded players I’ve ever seen, combining strengths from both, but heavier on the Forsberg than on the Sakic.

We have played real well the last couple of games and I really hope this signals that the team is starting to come together. I mean, if this is what the team will look like all season, wow.

I think it’s worth noting that the Avs have been able to capitalize on screw-ups made by the other team, rather than play consistently well at all ends of the ice. It’s not so much that the Avs are good, they’ve just been able to exploit glaring weaknesses when they arise.

That’s good, but it’s not going to consistently win games.

I am in a good mood, though. This game is great so far.

But

Isn’t a team that can capitalize on the other teams mistakes a sign of a good team? If the Avs could have a high percentage of opportunistic goals, that could be just enough. The games I wouldn’t like is when the Avs play teams that have very few mistakes.

The games I wouldn’t like is when the Avs play teams that have very few mistakes.

That was the source of my “but” statement. Exploiting screw ups is critical, but some teams just don’t screw up that often, and relying on the other team to fail instead of succeeding on their own is going to mean more losses than wins for the Avs in the long run.

It’s unbelievable that Budaj and Raycroft can play equally bad overall and yet Budaj is 0-3 and Raycroft is 2-0. Hockey is a weird sport sometimes.

by ShaneG on Oct 18, 2008 2:38 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs

True. Maybe it’s just me, but the defense has really seemed tighter in front of Raycroft, similar to the Theo punishment. Just my two cents. That being said, I say put Budaj back in net. Raycroft initiates heart attacks.

Red Wings Suck

by texacogirl on Oct 18, 2008 2:40 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs

Yeah, Raycroft really sucked today. He made a couple of really good saves, but that’s the thing I’ve noticed with Budaj as well so far. He makes some really nice flashy saves, but then lets in some stoppable goals. And Raycroft did the same in this game. However, I think this was definitely the best outcome we could have hoped for, Raycroft didn’t play well, so we should see Budaj back in net on Monday (hopefully his confidence will be restored), but we still won the game. Sweet.
