Hey guys,
It’s Adam from over at AnAvalancheOfThoughts. I’ve never joined one of these open gameday threads before, but perhaps I’ll join in the fun tonight.
welcome Adam – I like your blog

You most definitely should! And welcome to the party, you run a fine blog over there.

also, from your screen name, I see you are a big Yzerman fan!

Someday I’m going to go to the Hockey HoF and spray paint “the other 19” on Yzerman’s jersey there. ;) Have I mentioned how much I hate the Wings lately?

Thanks guys. I’m pretty new to the whole blogging thing and still trying to find my groove, but I’m slowly but surely getting the hang of it.
I’ve also added your blog to the MHH links sidebar – sorry it took so long.
Go Avs! Let's get some goals!
Thanks again, I really appreciate the support. The little blurb from my game recap that you posted in yours definitely upped my minimal viewers by a few, so for that, I thank you as well.
you’re quite welcome

tomorrow's recap
just as an FYI, I have some errands to do in the morning, so the recap may be a little later than normal going up tomorrow.
that is, unless the game doesn’t record at all – I’ve been having some DirecTV issues lately.

Av ".500" record
Real record: 27 points for, 33 points given away. Why even the suckiest of sucks don’t look so bad in Bettman’s watered down NHL.
MHH: Shagging Dater one contributor at a time.
By comparison
The Kings’ “.500” record represents 26 points for, 32 points given away. Or .448 awarded points earned (APE) versus .450 APE for the Avs. Hurray, we suck ever so slightly less than the LA fricken Kings! I should trademark the APE thing or something.

What's that about Murray?
Where did you get that Terry Murray ordered John Zeiler to hurt someone? I haven’t heard anything like that. John Zeiler’s an idiot, but I really doubt it was a “hit.”
The West Coast is the Best Coast.
All Kings players seem to be out to injure the Avs. Since they can’t beat us and all.
Red Wings Suck
Oh, you mean when Jack Johnson destroyed Ryan Smyth? I need to rig a system so that’s the first thing I see when I get up in the morning.
The West Coast is the Best Coast.
True. You could put queue it up right before the continuous loop of the LA Kings Stanley Cup video.

Hey, I barely out commented you last game. Add you post game comments and you beat me hands down.
Now and then we had the hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be PIRATES.

New Here!
Yo guys, I just signed up and decided to chime in! Unfortunately, I wont be here for the game, because, fortunately, i have tix, and am about to head out. I look forward to coming home tho, and seeing if you guys share my views of tonight’s match! have fun without me [as if you have had trouble with that before i joined!]!

You suck….
Have fun at the game and welcome.

Have a great game and start some chants for Roy’s sake. Piss off the wine and cheesers for the good of the Avs.
Red Wings Suck
I had a guy in front of my the other night who was texting on his damn cell phone all night. I don’t think he watched more than 1/3rd of the game. And this was in the upper deck where real fans sit. Damn wine and cheesers.

I went to a cricket game once, One guy in front of me was on his laptop all night and the other was reading a book. WTF. I also went to dinner with a couple of mates and two guys had laptops on the table. Highly entertaining

My wife did that once at a baseball game…read a book the whole time. At least in her case, she isn’t a baseball fan, it was part of a trip she was on.
Now and then we had the hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be PIRATES.
-Mark Twain-
Definitely at baseball
Especially if she’s not a fan and doesn’t want to be there, but these two guys were both by themselves. Who goes to a game by themselves and then reads the whole time. Funnily enough they were both at the same game.
"Two roads divurged in a wood, and I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference"
R. Frost
Well
baseball can be very, very boring, although going to the stadium to see the game live can be really fun. Also, I feel like it’s carte blanche to eat hot dogs and drink beer. (Otherwise, I would never eat hot dogs — just considering what they’re made of and how they’re made).
ha, i sit in the club level, and the people there arent really real fans, they show up because the corporate office hands them tickets and they show up for a night out. i cant ever get a chant going up there. ill do my best tho.
And this is just the reason for my comment. Last time I was on club level, some guy offered to “buy me anything I want” if I would just cheer less. In other words, he told me to STFU. I wanted to fight him right then and there I was so pissed. Is there some sort of rule against smacking fellow fans if they’re jerk-offs?
Red Wings Suck
No, No there's not
There is however a rule about punching me. Remember that if you ever see me.
"Two roads divurged in a wood, and I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference"
R. Frost
Just trying to capture the spirit of the thing
From the Av’s Farm Report:
The Chiefs currently lead the American North Division with a 17-6-1-0 record.
I love that we have an a farm team based on the original Chiefs (or Jets, as they were back when the movie was made). Too bad the Monsters are not faring as well.
Beware the Baron VonWolski
What the hell
Anyone see this on the Avs site, Stoa got WCHA player of the month and Peter Delmas, the goalie, got credited with a goal. He’s already achieved more than Boods, why don’t we have Delmas in net instead of Boods, or atleast Raycroft. Then Boods could learn how to score and round out his game.
"Two roads divurged in a wood, and I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference"
R. Frost
I don’t know whats funnier, Delmas scored a goal or that it happened against Roy and the Quebec remparts.

o sup
I see Joe doesn’t think the “usual suspects” are enough for him. So greedy, sir.
How about the flying elbow Alex Burrows just through at J.P. Dumont? That was fun.
They call me Bubblegum.
Oh wow
and Vancouver ends up with a 7 minute powerplay. I wonder how many shorthanded chances we could give up with a power play that long. I’m thinking at least 4.
They call me Bubblegum.
Or
How many times could we cycle the puck without shooting, I’m guessing alot. Although with 7 minutes we might be able to get 1 or 2 shots in.
"Two roads divurged in a wood, and I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference"
R. Frost
And they kill
the 7 minute powerplay. Amazing. My boy Joel Ward was tearin it up on the PK.
I’m totally talking to myself.
They call me Bubblegum.
You are highly underestimating the avs. the PP guys would get tired of passing after 3 minutes and try to shoot (lol), thus generating more chances against when they can’t keep the puck in the zone. I say 12.
I blame it all on my goalie
nice sig
wouldn’t have anything to do with me would it.
"Two roads divurged in a wood, and I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference"
R. Frost
Well I can’t win any spin o rama goalie arguments so I’m just going to have to go with the petulant passive agressive stance. Actually, its more just a lighthearted jab, because i do tend to blame the goalie a lot…… be glad you’re not my goalie, as my defense has been compared to ozolinsh….
I blame it all on my goalie
Guys, the game hasn’t even started yet and there’s 70+ comments.
Oh, and I’m scheduling an overflow thread just in case it gets crazy. If the comments here get over 500, switch over to the other thread (should show up around 11:00 PM Eastern, 9:00 PM Mountain). If not, just ignore it and I’ll delete it tomorrow morning.
Now I have to go study. Play nice.

They’ll be fearing us for sure. We’re an unstoppable machine.

Damn Kings announcers talking about the “injuries” when the kings and Avs get together and whining about the LaBarbera injury last season.
Now and then we had the hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be PIRATES.
-Mark Twain-
Oh and lets count injuries:
Kings: 1 – LaBarbera (last season)
Avs: 4 Smyth and Svatos (last season) Foote and Wolski this season.

-Mark Twain-
Wasn’t Forsberg’s spleen injury during the playoffs against the Kings? There was a Swedish defensemen on the Kings mugging Forsberg every chance he got. I can’t remember his name right now…alcohol causes brain cell evaporation. Something …strom
Well
It was actually after we got rid of them, but the night of the clinching game, yes.

Hola
Does anyone have a link for a feed? I usually just check justin.tv and google and often can’t find a feed. Any other good sites to look on?
You know, teach a man to fish and he won’t interrupt your game threads looking for feeds.
Bad night for me
I usually find one on hockeywebcasts but they are not listing this game for some reason.
Yahoo has it and also justin
I’ve been having problems with yahoo.sports for some reason. Switched to Justin. Missed the Svatos goal. Damn!

Yeah, from companies with licenses to ship. But I don’t think individuals can ship. I could be wrong.

Can anyone point out the story that said Terry Murray ordered Zeiler’s hit on Foote? We haven’t heard anything about this in SoCal.

From this threads opening
With apparent orders from coach Terry Murray, the Kings’ fourth line, led by bush leaguer John Zeiler, hit the ice with every intention of hurting somebody on the Avs.
Not sure if its for real. I think Joe is just trying to rile things up.

Thanks. I thought it was just a joke...
But do you all mind if we borrow the term “Douche Canoe” to describe Zeiler over at the Kings’ blogs? We all think he is pretty worthless and hope DL would just ship his ass off to Manchester sometime soon.

I don’t think he’s been here for threads, so I can still blame him for now. Also, it was a huge letdown to have a goal girl and score once a game. Remember Laura Prepon? There were some pretty memorable pictures of her, but after the first period, we didn’t see her again. What a letdown.

Holy crap
Altitude running a feature on the Avs success in shootouts, and specifically Wolski’s dominance, and he speaks really, REALLY clear english. I definitely did not see that coming.

I just don't see many interviews
I mean, I only get Altitude feeds when the game is on, and zero pre/post game stuff, and I almost always mute the computer during intermission. So there.

I totally agree!
That was like an entertaining feature video interviewing Avs players, like something the fans would actually be interested in seeing. How unprecedented for Altitude or anything to do with the Avalanche management! The Avs website is the worst. Most boring thing ever. NEV ER has any news worth reading.

just talked about how players sometimes get into fights with the fans if sticks have gotten lost in the stands and the fans don’t want to give them back. Ha ha. I guess he knows something about getting into fights with fans in the stands. Pretty hilarious.

My six year old nephew met him last year when my dad took him to the Altitude Authentics store. Mcleod was there with his parents, who wanted to buy replica Mcleod jerseys, but the didn’t have them yet. He is the nicest kid off the ice, and while the encounter with my nephew was my nephews first time meeting a hockey player, it may have been Mcleod’s first time he met a fan, as it happened after about his 3rd or 4th game with the Avs.

Don't know about NHL score but
There was a womens international game that ended 82-0. You know, because their 10-0 lead wasn’t safe enough.
Wow, I remember reading about that, shocking. I mean, come on, 82-0, really? At least lay off a little after the 50th goal or something…

were pretty entertaining.
The third one was unwatchable! It was like the first 2 were made by one director and then the third one was made by an entirely different director. Completely bizarre.
The second one kinda sucked, Third wasn’t too bad. Problem was they never planned a trilogy, so the ending of the first was perfect but then they got greedy and started making the second with no finished script and didn’t seem to have it thought out.
