Wild/Aves GNT: Once More Into The Breach, Dear Freinds...

[IndyAndy]

... Or kiss the post-season goodbye.

Can Minny drag themselves across the Finish Line, or will they stumble and fall just short of it?

Yeo is likely coaching for his job tonight.

Come on, boys: Let's see the team that you were in March one more time.

[IndyAndy]

Parise!

A 'greasy' one, but I'm not complaining.

 

[IndyAndy]

It only took the Avs just over ten minutes to take a shot on goal. :rollseyes:


Now that's one I've never seen before: An Avs player got his stick caught in the Linesman's skate!

 

[IndyAndy]

O'Reilly ties it up.

Varlamov has had a couple of highlight reel worthy saves in the 1st.

 

[dash]

Joe Sacco will be fired regardless of the outcome tonight - As for Yeo, I think you're right Andy, if the Wild don't win, Yeo could be toast.

 

[IndyAndy]

Kobasew has a goal for the Avs. - or does he?

Under review for possible kicking.

Avs certainly spending a lot of time in Minny's end of the ice so far in the 2nd.

****
And the call is NO GOAL.

 

[IndyAndy]

Setaguchi! - on the powerplay.

 

[IndyAndy]

Avs uped their game in the 2nd, but trail by one.

Hope the Zucker/Zanon collision makes a highlight reel. Zanon tried to shoulder Zucker off the puck and ended up getting LAID OUT.

 

[IndyAndy]

That's more like it, Backs! - Turns aside five consecutive PP shots in less than 1 minute.

... And now the Wild get a power play.

****
.... And now a 5 on 3 for chatter off the Avs bench??!!

 

[IndyAndy]

.. And the Avs successfully killed it off.

 

[IndyAndy]

D@mnit, Wild! - Get the puck out of your end of the ice!!!

Our saving grace: Backstrom is probably having his best night in weeks.

 

[IndyAndy]

HELLO POST-SEASON!

Sorry, Jackets. - I honestly wish it was you & not the Wings

One hell of an effort by the Avs.

Okay, boys: Make Chicago EARN the 1st round.

 

[IPostedWhat]

Damn, I was hoping the Avs would manage a win tonight.


Oh well, congrats to the Wild, and best of luck to Pommers.

HELLO POST-SEASON!

Sorry, Jackets. - I honestly wish it was you & not the Wings

One hell of an effort by the Avs.

Okay, boys: Make Chicago EARN the 1st round.

And they only spent 20 million more than the Jackets to win on a tiebreaker!

Congrats Andy. Happy for you.



But I hope those fuckers go down in flames.
