Violets are blue,
Sugar is sweet,
and CLEAR THE FREEKING ZONE!

Joe, you have outdone yourself. Every word of that preview is the truth without bias or skepticism. The fact that it encompasses the Avs season so perfectly is flat out sad.

But…

Sorry, but is we could clone people…I’d clone Roy, Forsberg, and Sakic first!

Well yeah

If we could clone people in their prime it would definitely be those three but of current players Boods is probably the only cloneable person the Avs have, maybe SOS if he gets his form back.

I have to admit Raycroft really has only had one bad game…the Columbus game. He is the backup and we need to give him a chance to play. Budaj is not an Evgeni Nabokov or a Ryan Miller, he won’t make it playing 75-80 games this season. Not with the number of shots he has been facing.

The only difference between the goalies you mentioned and Budaj is that he has never played that many games per season. That doesn’t mean he can’t do it. He’s just a noob.

But raycrofts first two games where also when teh Avs seemed to score at will and cover any mistakes he made. If we put Raycroft against Calgary or Vancouver we would have been absolutely humiliated.

Altitude’s having trouble with their audio. It’s hilarious. You can hear in the background" can’t get norm" and “we’re having a little trouble”

Now the Kings announcers are trying to rationalize the hits on Foote and Wolski. Retards!

Rationalization, justification. BS. Wolski hit was a casualty of hockey but the Foote hit was unnecessary.

Dater's live blog

was good reading, ya know if you enjoy reading about Budaj’s giant rebounds that he always leaves. Seriously, he said the same thing about 5 times with almost no praise for Boods.

Also Claude Lemieux may be signing with the Worchester Sharks, San Jose’s affiliate and theres a blog about the hit on foote where Dater thinks there’ll be a long suspension on Zeiler.

Hopefully Zeiler will get slapped with something major…but I have little faith in the NHL right now.

If Foote misses the Anaheim game then they might do something, if he plays then very little will happen.

tonight vs flamers

Tonight we semed to play very hard. It was almost like we had everything going for us (mentally) going into this game. Does it seem to anyone else that we should have blown over the kings, but instead it was a great match up?

I am not sure what to feel anymore. The team is playing hard, the chances are coming, but where is the juice?

When Footer went down the passion was there, for a little bit. Then, it kind of reverted back to this “same ol same ol” type of hockey.

Does anyone else feel like the team is missing something? Even if Sakic comes back healthy vs the ducks, it still will feel like something is missing.

I feel like we are drowning. We need some major effort from our players. Hejduk has been stepping up on both ends, but we need more. Doesn’t this season feel like:
“Hey we should see what we can get from these players!”

What do you guys think?
