CS85 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Fasth back to form with a shutout. As a joint member in The Brotherhood of the Feather, I commend the Ducks for their back to back shutouts with two different goalies.

The_Admiral Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 The Colorado Avalanche were just a fad that went out of style by about 2002. They're basically the Old Navy fleece vests of sports. I congratulate them on their Stanley Cup of sorts. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still MIGHTY Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I really hate the Honda Center.16 wins in a row in Anaheim over Calgary. 10 home wins in a row.

Nyk33 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Damn you, Denver!!! Other than the defending Cup champs, the 'Hawks were the goodride story of this post-lockout season. Here comes Colorado, however, and the Avs break Chicago's heart and spirit, 6-2. Back to irrelevancy goes the NHL.Silly mortal! This is just a sign that you must accept the Miami Heat as the best team ever for they are endowed with our Lord and Savior LeBron James! Now bow to the Heat and bow to heavenly father!!

Sport Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 How many people in Denver actually saw this win? Like 4000?18,007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 If the Hawks just win their two Ducks games outright and avoid any huge losing streaks, they should be fine in the second half of the season. Sharp being out for a month+ is troubling, but Bowman was probably going to shore up the top six anyway, and it's not like he was carrying the team. I'm eager to see Jeremy Morin slot in on the second line in the meantime. He's doing rather well in the AHL. Yes, it'd be two rookies in the top six, but if it works, it works, and if it doesn't, bump up Frolik or Kruger or heaven forbid Carcillo. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 How many people in Denver actually saw this win? Like 4000?18,007There was a weirdly sizable Blackhawks fan invasion at the game, and it does appear that the Avalanche have derped themselves into market irrelevance. Wednesday night's game on NBCSN - you know, that channel "no one gets and/or no one can find" - drew a 7.0 rating in Chicago. It pulled a 0.9 in Denver.

And yeah, turns out that the fine people of greater Denver aren't really into a hockey team when it's not the best team money can buy. Sounds like that other major new-growth American city that had a contending and Cup-winning team dropped in from above. Too bad; Denver should be a strong spot on the league's footprint what with its general winter sportiness and all. Should've gotten an expansion team. The goddamn Predators have put down better roots than the Avs have. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were very spoiled by being handed a dynasty and now anything short of that just seems boring by comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The goddamn Predators have put down better roots than the Avs have.I think it has more to do with the management of the Av's drawing anyone willing to pay to see the team play (butts in seats sales principles) than to cater to hockey fans (most of whom believe the value of the ticket is not equal to on ice performance). I am a fan of the Av's, but I've found a better value for my money lies in going to the new minor league team (the Denver Cutthroats) that caters to hockey fans and draw respectable numbers, I find the experience is a lot better (win or lose) at those games.

Sodboy13 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Unfortunately, the CHL is probably going to go kablooey this offseason, so enjoy those Cutthroats games while you can.

logo-maker Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 If the Cutthroats management is a well organized as I think it is, the team will probably join another minor league (AA) system, if the CHL goes under (which I find interesting since they are supposedly expanding next season).

Sodboy13 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 They're "expanding" to Brampton, because apparently everybody needs an Abbotsford nowadays. But it could very well turn out that Brampton is becoming the 6th team in the CHL, rather than the 11th.
