I’ll be working during this game (why the hell it is at 3pm beats me) but I think, for the first time in a long long time, I expect a loss.

I’m feeling optimistic… Maybe not a win, but a good effort

So, that would make the Avs record 26-12-13-2 where they’ve had 13 good effort losses.
I’m hoping those points count next year.

Barrie was called up? Malone is tweeting that.

If so… at least the Altiboobs will have something to talk about incessantly instead of how amazingly talented the Creepy twins are.

That would mean there are 9 healthy D.
Johnson, Hejda, Wilson, Quincey, ROB, SOB, Elliott, Hunwick, and now Barrie?

This is a great call up. If there is one thing this team needs to start winning some games it is more offense. So why not call up a 9th dman.

Or Sherm has blockbuster trade set up involving a defenseman…. Either that or they’re just making an Elliot and Barrie switch

He has to trade a defenseman at some point.

I agree, and I truly believe it will be a Quincey/Wilson deal.

I’m not sure who I would prefer to lose. I love Wilson’s hits, but Quincey is the better player.

I’d be 100% alright with losing Quincey. I’m really getting sick of all his lazy ass penalties.

I really hope it’s some king of package deal to get a decent winger, rather than a JML type trade

I think this comment is accidently perfect because we are going to trade with the Kings to get one of there forwards.

It probably happened a few times when there were 12 forwards and 8 defenseman dressed (four lines of each) way back when. Not sure when that was, maybe pre lockout.

by ProfessorOak on Feb 4, 2012 10:08 AM MST up reply actions
Or if the team was planning on seven defensemen and lost an forward at warm up, might throw a d-man up there ala JML. Of course that would mean they didn’t have a healthy scratch at forward…or that person was just very very bad.

Will it count if Hunwick plays forward because that is my guess to increase the offensive production. Jones and Gali as healthy scratches and Hunwick takes Gali’s spot on the top line because he skates good.

Elliott made it back to LE in time to play in their game though.

we don’t have the roster space to do this right now. So there has to be some kind of trade – either Elliott being sent down or a trade.

At exactly what point do you start to realize that life without knowledge is death in disguise?
Doesn’t it have to be filed? I figure if Sherman calls Quinn (or whomever) and informs them of the call up, Barrie would be told he’s nto playing in the next LE game. He tells the team and Malone tweets it. Sherman can’t officially add Barrie until he reassigns someone, puts someone on the IR, or makes a trade. Maybe that move hasn’t been finalized, officially, or filed, officially.
Further, they made an AHL trade for Richmond. Seems likely they are connected, which leads me to think Elliott is staying.

I’ll be at this game, not expecting a big crowd with the losing streak & snowstorm. I’m just hoping for a good effort, I gave-up on hoping for a win against a NW Division team long ago.

Any of you who have played the drinking game Kings
Know it can be dangerous. We were playing, and i got to make up a rule, so I made the little man rule; you have to take the little man off your drink before you drink and then put him back on, if you don’t you drink again. My friend about 8 cards later gets to make his own rule, (all rules stay in effect until the end of the game) and he pulled the ultimate dick move. He made a rule that anytime anyone took a little man off their drink (so every turn), I have to drink… Ultimate dick move, but I’m not hungover so I’m pretty happy. That and it was free Grey Goose, so all in all, a good time! Go Avs!
Wise men wonder while strong men die.
Oh wow, that is brutal. And smart. I’m going to have to remember that one! lol (BTW, what’s the little man and why is he on your drink?)

This is why we can't win
Sacco is stuck right before a milestone. Win #100. He has 99, and milestones can become a mental problem.
Wise men wonder while strong men die.
Hey vtcaps
If you stop by, someone mentioned this in the mailbag
I have noticed that at the beginning of each period, Semyon Varlamov immediately tosses his water bottle back to the bench without even taking a sip. He will then bring one back after the first stoppage.
Did Varly do that in Washington, if you noticed?
Wise men wonder while strong men die.
I’ve noticed it too but don’t remember if he ever did it in Washington. I think it’s more wanting a fresh water bottle at the beginning of the game and not the warm up bottle …
No one ever sends one back or takes one to him so it might be a superstition with his game..
"we cough to clear our throats and sigh to clear our hearts"
We should make an Avs Drinking game.
Here’s a start (feel free to cross out or add):
1 drink:
-Anytime Sunnyside says anything overly positive about a player on the other team
-Whenever the refs miss a blatant penalty committed against the Avs (+2 drinks if it results in a goal against)
-After every game that Hejduk, Stastny, or Jones didn’t score a goal
-Landeskog gets called for goaltender interference
-Kyle Keefe says something zany (Such as “Top Shelf where Mama keeps the peanut butter!”)
-Rycroft calls the Avs “we”
-Altitude shows the NHL standings
2 drinks:
-Altijinx results in a goal or penalty against us
-Sunnyside unleashes a McNabism (+1 drink if you’ve heard it before – such as the “so-and-so is one of the best, if not the BEST, whatever it is that they’re okay at”)
-Anyone says, “We didn’t start on time”. +1 drink if it isn’t Sacco.
-McNab and Haynes go off on some random tangent that has nothing to do with the game
-Julie trips over her words or says something that doesn’t make any sense
3 drinks:
-Someone scores their first NHL goal against us
-The Johnson or Varlamov trade is mentioned
Chug:
-Anyone scores a hatty against us
-The Avs get shutout against a NW division rival
