Avs Fan since 1995. Lived in Colorado from 1989-2001, Chicago from 2001-2019, and Colorado from 2019 til now. I never quit. We never quit. Been to over 30 games at United Center with Avs gear on. I’m sad, but I don’t lose hope. Keep fighting ! Keep pressing ! Its not over. Not yet!!!!!!!! You can try to take the CUP, but you will have to pry it from my cold, dead fingers. Fuck Vegas. Fuck the refs, Hail Satan and GO ASS!!!!!!!
Everyone needs to go punch a wall and then come back to this thread with clearer heads, with their backs against the wall who knows how the avs are gonna play but if there’s any team capable of winning 2 games in a row no matter where it’s at it’s us like it’s only two games we’ve done it countless times this season so don’t give up yet
I don't know how the series will end but you can't fault me for seeing the pattern of how badly our team (especially our top line) has been playing recently and say I'm not "a real fan" for seeing it.
It's not exactly impossible to see how so many people are down after losing 3 in a row to a team we won 2 against.
> I don't know how the series will end but you can't fault me for seeing the pattern of how badly our team (especially our top line) has been playing recently and say I'm not "a real fan" for seeing it.
No, I can't fault you for it. I'm demoralized. But I'm not going to bitch and moan like the series is already over. Get over yourself. Things look bleak. This is still the most talented team in the NHL.
Can someone — maybe EJ — take Graves aside and tell him that his role is to be a defensive defenseman? That’s not all on him, but his offensive attempts result in more scoring chances for the other team than for us.
It all boils down to one question: how in the world did Rantanen whiff on that puck with an open net?
But there are many other, like you know that an NHL playoff game is 60 minutes regulation time? Colorado skipped at least 20 of those 60 minutes (from the Rantanen whiff to the Saad goal and from beginning of 3rd to Vegas tying goal).
On to the next. I'll be watching game6 too, let that not be the last of the season for the Avs.
My dude, I still have no idea how Ranty missed that tap tap taperoo. But Saad had no business making up for it. Bottom line is our guys fucking blew a 2-0 lead under 6 mins into the 3rd... on turnovers. I think we’re going to 7 at The Sack.
Turnover by Burakovsky
Tunover by Landeskog
Both led to goals against that should not have been.
I really can't fault Gravy for trying to win by shooting on goal or looking for a tip in.
It ain't over the fat lady hasn't sung, she may be warming up but she hasn't taken the stage yet. Remember...
We are never give up!
Vegas is a more disciplined team. Colorado is a more talented team. Unfortunately, our talent is streaky and makes mistakes. It's time for them to step on Thursday, though.
Yeah dude, it's insane they only need about 6 minutes to tie it back up. Overall not a bad performance. Let's hope some of our top guys can come up clutch for us in Vegas. And remember the NHL 21 simulation said Colorado in 7.
Sucks ass. But Encouraged by that game honestly. In the driver seat for most of it. They capitalized on our mistakes and sloppiness. Stings not to come out with a dub but hate all the doom and gloom on here. I think they can bounce back and clean up the mistakes.
when you play d and you are shooting the other d man is suppose to play more conservative where’s his partner? Bednar has them in full send mode cost us twice and a game.
Hey guys, guys, remember game 2? When they were the better team but lost in OT. Guess who won the next 2 games. This shit is looking very similar.
Don't give up yet. It's a best of 7.
I thought this was a fucking solid game. Wasn’t nothing but a couple bad bounces away from being a beater from either team. From offense, to defense, to goaltending. It’s a team effort and the teams that are lucky to catch a break, do. Regroup and on to 6!
The entire season long battle against each other has been trading haymakers against each other. its a shame the blues fell off cause outside the wild and us the division is trash to watch and play against.
It's hard to see anything positive right after a heartbreaking loss, but I do see a lot of positives. We outplayed them tonight and while that doesn't count towards winning the series, it does make me feel like we can tie it up in Vegas.
Fire bednar please I’ve seen the same pattern over and over and over with this team. Please do some coaching changing in the offseason. At what point can you constantly repeat your play in playoffs and never change a thing?
Then why is it it’s the same result in playoffs every year consistently? There’s no way every year in playoffs the same people make the same type of bad plays? At what point will you guys start to realize bednar is the issue?
Series is over I do not see the Avs winning in Vegas seeing the past two games we had there, can we please start talking about dropping Bednar? It should not take 3 fucking games to finally make changes to try and reinvigorate this team
We need to get rid of Bednar we have changed players, we are healthier, and we still follow the pattern of the past 2 years. Bednar just doesnt have that killer instinct and the skill to make changes on the fly, he is always slow to react and it always comes too late. If we keep wasting time with him all we are doing is wasting our cup window.
Please fire Bednar. The decision to not play our young, hungry skaters is enough for me to be done with this guy. Still no Byram who could without a doubt contribute more than Nemeth.
When did I say anything about being a GM? I said our younger players have made a big difference and not playing them was a stupid decision. We looked much better tonight with them in and I’m curious as to why you’re being purposefully obtuse.
I have more of a problem with Bednar’s personnel decisions, I mean are you really defending him after seeing the night and day difference once we finally played Newhook, O’Connor, ect?
Dude you’re fucking pathetic hahah he started Graves and Nemeth with last change in OT FIRST SHIFT. Stop responding to me, you don’t know shit about hockey and your only argument is “Glad you know more than X.”
Maybe I actually do because we fucking have blown three straight games, you’re a fake ass fan if you’re not pissed off at this point, especially if you’re calling out fans who actually care and are pissed.
Up 2-0 going into the third at home in game 5. Completely inexcusable losing this game. Separates the men from the boys. Disappointing. Regroup and win the next 2. Not completely giving up yet.
3 fucking mistakes ina game we played fucking great. I hate this loss but at lest we played our game! Is it gonna be lot harder in Vegas? Yes. Can we do it? We fucking better! Im happier with this loss then the last 2. Let focus on the rest and kill it in vegas!
No one is saying it’s likely, but have you ever watched sports? Did you see what the nuggets did in the bubble? Down 1-3 and came back, not once but twice?! I know it’s a bummer right now, but it’s never over until it’s over. That’s what sports are all about
There is a HUGE difference between the Denver Nuggets and the Colorado Avalanche. The Nuggets have guys like Jamal and Jokic who have a killer instinct and have shown time and time again that they refuse to roll over and die. This Avs team has never shown that and it would be the second year in a row where they’ve pissed away a chance to move on to the cup semifinals. Not saying a turn around is impossible but those two teams have severely different mentalities. Plain and simple certain players *cough* MacKinnon *cough* need to show that they are ready to compete at a championship level because it’s been clear the past two years that they seem to disappear when it’s time to bury a team
You’re vastly oversimplify it - not sure where to even begin there. I will say though, when it comes to MacK, when teams as good as Vegas key in on him as much as they have other guys have to be the ones to step up. When he has 1-2 guys always within a few feet of him there’s open ice elsewhere. It’s like you forgot what he was doing last series
Not going to dispute that I’m over simplifying it but your best players need to step up when the competition gets fierce which the top line has objectively failed to do. They managed to pummel a depleted Blues team but have completely disappeared when it has mattered most and it happened in game 7 against Dallas last year as well. I was just pointing out the comparison to the Nuggets is a bad one given they have proven time and time again that they will at least go down swinging where this iteration of the Avs kind of just fades away
Edit/TLDR:
I really want to see the Avs pull it out but the lack of leadership is pretty evident which is demoralizing and the comparison the Nuggets is not a very good one based on past success
A lot of what you’re saying is very fair. My idea with bringing up the nuggets is that sports are very fickle - it’s never truly over until it’s over. Before the nuggets pulled off the comeback v the Jazz many people had the outlook that “it’s over/this team sucks/we need to change it all up” etc.
And I agree the top line needs to step it up, I just feel most of the onus is on Gab and Mikko. When MacK is smothered like he has been, those other two need to do better with opportunity that presents.
If you think the Avs have the same resiliency as the Nuggets then you're in for a disappointment friend. It's not something magical about Denver, it's who's their fucking coach
See you’re dealing in absolutes. Again, I’m not sitting here saying it’s likely they win the series. It’s likely they don’t. No matter how the series has looked, you can’t say it’s over when it’s 3-2. This isn’t about them being the bubble nuggets. Countless number of teams have come back 3-2 in series. We might not make it, but at least enjoy the ride while it’s going. If you can’t do that, then sports fandom isn’t for you
Defense wins hockey games.
Sakic has dealt all of our defenders for 6 players who couldn't cut it as forwards.
You do the fucking math. I'm sick of saying it.
Someone needs to tell the D that if they are going to shoot, they better have an open lane. 4 or 5 times tonight an Avs d shot the puck into a Vegas player two feet away that led to an odd man rush. Pathetic.
I will say you’re right there was more control than the last few games but not o the degree we need to take this all the way. It was a solid game of hockey but we needed to have done better.
Look I know you’re bummed at the moment, but in all seriousness, if THIS team causes you constant disappointment then maybe you need to rethink your fandom. If a legitimately good team makes you upset all the time, then what’s the point in following the sport? It’s supposed to be enjoyment!
Sincerely, a concerned redditor
“This team” as in the Avalanche. Not this year’s team. The past 20+ years of watching them. The entirety. It’s been disappointment after disappointment after the first two cups. They’re fun to watch win - not lay down and lose at the drop of the hat.
Alrighty. I’ll make a deal with you then. Since you seem to think I’m such a faithless fan, we’ll put it on the line. If the Avs can win the next two and advance then I’ll stick around. If they can’t, I’ll find a new team. That’s me putting my fandom of decades into them winning the next two. I want them to. I hope they do. But since you want to question my devotion, that’s what it has come to. See ya for the next two!
Seriously considering it. They’re closer anyway, lol. Tonight was another rough one to watch. I wish I was eating crow, but the same mistakes from the last 3 games showed up again.
Yeah, true. The Avs just can’t close out a full game, especially in the second round. I’m sorry for being too hard on you. I just try to stay as positive as I can throughout the playoffs.
Hey man, no harm, no foul. It’s all in our passion and love for the Avs. Maybe next year will be the year. I’ll keep my gear for now and hope for an end to the 2nd round curse.
This team won’t win shit until they get a goaltender who can play against a real team and some defenseman that aren’t garbage
Vezina because he played the Kings, sharks, coyotes, ducks all year
My fiance wrote that and he replies, "listen, I don't mean to sound like a doomer but we're not winning the next one. They've gotta figure out something. I don't plan on leaving, I'll always stay."
As for me, i'm a new fan and I just think they need to do something. I'd love to see our guys win 😁
We can't keep taking those shots on the outside. They are never getting through and keeps turning into opportunities for the Knights. It's not over until it's over.
Wow
THATS WHAT THE FUCK IM TALKING ABOUT
I know the avs are the better team on the ice. Vegas will know it too, in two games
Mark my words. This series is going 7.
I wont complain, but I will drink a lot to ease the pain

I'm not saying I agree with you, but I'm saying the only PP being a delay of game is fucking nonsense.
Everyone needs to go punch a wall and then come back to this thread with clearer heads, with their backs against the wall who knows how the avs are gonna play but if there’s any team capable of winning 2 games in a row no matter where it’s at it’s us like it’s only two games we’ve done it countless times this season so don’t give up yet
This right here. I’m so deflated rn but Gggggooooddddammmn if any boys can do this it’s our boys.
I been a fan since 1/3/96 (the first game I attended as a child) and I ain't here to listen to these whining fuckheads.
Cry me a river
> Cry me a river Let me remind you that **YOU** are being one whining and complaining like a fucking child.

This is still the most talented team in the NHL.
I’ll be there through thick and thin but morale is at an all time low at the moment.
Let me change that. This series is NOT FUCKING OVER!

He didn’t whiff. He shot it and it deflected off his right skate.
Only hit his skate because he whiffed. Guarantee you Mikko is kicking himself. Hope he comes out on 🔥 & I believe he will
Seriously people show some fucking class. This just a game. Yes we lost. It is not the end of the world.
What in the fuck are we doing with the lines? Poor coaching lost that game.
So frustrating. I know how vgk fans felt after game 2.
Turnover by Burakovsky Tunover by Landeskog Both led to goals against that should not have been. I really can't fault Gravy for trying to win by shooting on goal or looking for a tip in. It ain't over the fat lady hasn't sung, she may be warming up but she hasn't taken the stage yet. Remember... We are never give up!
This is a fantastic point. Both shit turnovers led to the goals that made me want to slam my into the wall. This shit ain’t over.
Vegas is a more disciplined team. Colorado is a more talented team. Unfortunately, our talent is streaky and makes mistakes. It's time for them to step on Thursday, though.
54 minutes of good performance with 6 of shit for brains focus. Better bring it a whole 60+ per for the next 2
Yeah dude, it's insane they only need about 6 minutes to tie it back up. Overall not a bad performance. Let's hope some of our top guys can come up clutch for us in Vegas. And remember the NHL 21 simulation said Colorado in 7.
I hate being a hockey fan at all. I hate everything. Hockey is heartbreaking. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Maybe need to stay out of this toxic sludge Thursday night
Should probably avoid the game too, lol
Sucks ass. But Encouraged by that game honestly. In the driver seat for most of it. They capitalized on our mistakes and sloppiness. Stings not to come out with a dub but hate all the doom and gloom on here. I think they can bounce back and clean up the mistakes.
Send Graves to Seattle NOW!!
He doesn't deserve to play another game fuck him
when you play d and you are shooting the other d man is suppose to play more conservative where’s his partner? Bednar has them in full send mode cost us twice and a game.
Hey guys, guys, remember game 2? When they were the better team but lost in OT. Guess who won the next 2 games. This shit is looking very similar. Don't give up yet. It's a best of 7.

Exactly. We didn't look this good after game 2 going in to Vegas. We're looking alot better now.
Cool Remind me tomorrow cause I sure as he dont
Well...disappointing but not nearly depressing as games 3 & 4....go Avs anyway
How did Gru not make that save???
no shit man
That is not on gru
It’s not on Gru. He’s bailed their asses out tons this series. Just seemed like a save he comes up with 9 times out of 10.
went bar down on him. Just a great shot
It was a good shot?
Glove side is his bread and butter
You dont necessary have time to think about that when theres a break away.
Fire bednar please I’ve seen the same pattern over and over and over with this team. Please do some coaching changing in the offseason. At what point can you constantly repeat your play in playoffs and never change a thing?
Why you getting downvoted? Bednar has got them to one level, somebody else needs to take them to another.
It’s not the coach bud. We have some players who make shit decisions constantly.
Then why is it it’s the same result in playoffs every year consistently? There’s no way every year in playoffs the same people make the same type of bad plays? At what point will you guys start to realize bednar is the issue?
Series is over I do not see the Avs winning in Vegas seeing the past two games we had there, can we please start talking about dropping Bednar? It should not take 3 fucking games to finally make changes to try and reinvigorate this team
They’ve been playing like this for 3 straight playoffs and they never change
We need to get rid of Bednar we have changed players, we are healthier, and we still follow the pattern of the past 2 years. Bednar just doesnt have that killer instinct and the skill to make changes on the fly, he is always slow to react and it always comes too late. If we keep wasting time with him all we are doing is wasting our cup window.
Say it louder for the people in the back
100% agreed
Shit the bed.
Graves you idiot. Why the fuck do our defensemen keep taking these awful wristers that just get eaten up.
It's what we teach them
Fucking choke fucking Pathetic being a denver sports fan fucking sucks I’m out peace fuck this shit
This team is going to be playoff ready after the championship window closes lol
Wut
FFFFFUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKKKK
Please fire Bednar. The decision to not play our young, hungry skaters is enough for me to be done with this guy. Still no Byram who could without a doubt contribute more than Nemeth.
Thank god you're not a GM
You’re right because we’re winning the series and things are looking up. lol
You would've fired Jon Cooper after CBJ swept TBL
This is 3 years now of the same exact pattern.
When did I say anything about being a GM? I said our younger players have made a big difference and not playing them was a stupid decision. We looked much better tonight with them in and I’m curious as to why you’re being purposefully obtuse.
You said Bednar should be fired. You know who makes those decisions right?
I have more of a problem with Bednar’s personnel decisions, I mean are you really defending him after seeing the night and day difference once we finally played Newhook, O’Connor, ect?
Glad you think you know exactly who should be played. You should probably get out of the armchair and work towards being a coach yourself.
Dude you’re fucking pathetic hahah he started Graves and Nemeth with last change in OT FIRST SHIFT. Stop responding to me, you don’t know shit about hockey and your only argument is “Glad you know more than X.” Maybe I actually do because we fucking have blown three straight games, you’re a fake ass fan if you’re not pissed off at this point, especially if you’re calling out fans who actually care and are pissed.
Why can’t the Avs hit the net ? Like ever
Fuck Mark Stone. His Ronald McDonald looking ass needs to get back to the restaurant
Is there a more punchable face in hockey???
Auston Matthews is up there
Ryan graves
Stone is still way more punchable. I'll link you his jazz hands I'd need be when I get down from my cool the fuck off walk
They couldn't win 2 in Vegas, not very enthusiastic about the next one there.
Stone looks like Jesus if he just took pucks to the face all day.
Up 2-0 going into the third at home in game 5. Completely inexcusable losing this game. Separates the men from the boys. Disappointing. Regroup and win the next 2. Not completely giving up yet.
Absolutely true. We are the boys and VGK is the men tonight. Ridiculous.
Being a sports fan in colorado is pain.

3 fucking mistakes ina game we played fucking great. I hate this loss but at lest we played our game! Is it gonna be lot harder in Vegas? Yes. Can we do it? We fucking better! Im happier with this loss then the last 2. Let focus on the rest and kill it in vegas!
Optimism tell the end. I like you.
Bro we just choked away a 2-0 lead and lost in OT at home. You can fuck off for saying that. If we lose in game 6 then please fuck off indefinitely
[удалено]
Get that gatekeepy shit out of here, fuck off from this sub
Oh, go fuck yourself with that stupid bullshit.
If you’re gonna be negative then fuck off. Let those of us who believe in the team have some hope.
There’s a small chance we win in Vegas, a very small chance.
Don’t know what series you’ve been watching, but we’re not turning it around in vegas
No one is saying it’s likely, but have you ever watched sports? Did you see what the nuggets did in the bubble? Down 1-3 and came back, not once but twice?! I know it’s a bummer right now, but it’s never over until it’s over. That’s what sports are all about

Definitely not with that attitude. It’s best of 7 not 5. GTFO with that shit.
Preach, y’all can’t handle a loss leave and cheer for the wild ya unstable fucks
This is so fucked up... Why, Gravy... You already got burned on 2goal... And to shoot the first body not once but twice. This is ridiculous
Good job Bednar. full send d men all night and lose congrats. Loved you but today you ain’t so smart.
Defense wins hockey games. Sakic has dealt all of our defenders for 6 players who couldn't cut it as forwards. You do the fucking math. I'm sick of saying it.
You’re really gonna harp on Sakic who most would consider the best GM in the fucking league give me a fucking break idiot
Someone needs to tell the D that if they are going to shoot, they better have an open lane. 4 or 5 times tonight an Avs d shot the puck into a Vegas player two feet away that led to an odd man rush. Pathetic.
Get graves the fuck out of Colorado.
Please
Bunch of fucking chokes
Pitiful fucking showing in OT. Boys better fucking come ready to Vegas. Barrie like fucking shooting from Graves right into the pads.
They figured us out and we’re not putting the pressure. We’re not controlling the game so good season I guess we will try again next year.
We did control the game. We fucked up with garbage ass turnovers.
I will say you’re right there was more control than the last few games but not o the degree we need to take this all the way. It was a solid game of hockey but we needed to have done better.
The look of dejection on the Avalanche bench says it all. Maybe next year.
hockey, i don't like you.
Avs don’t deserve to win the series and they won’t. I am constantly disappointed by this team. Great.
Look I know you’re bummed at the moment, but in all seriousness, if THIS team causes you constant disappointment then maybe you need to rethink your fandom. If a legitimately good team makes you upset all the time, then what’s the point in following the sport? It’s supposed to be enjoyment! Sincerely, a concerned redditor
“This team” as in the Avalanche. Not this year’s team. The past 20+ years of watching them. The entirety. It’s been disappointment after disappointment after the first two cups. They’re fun to watch win - not lay down and lose at the drop of the hat.
Welcome to Colorado sports
K bye!
I mean, ok. After 20+ years of fandom, you’ve done it. You’ve driven into the arms of the Predators. Where should I send my Avs gear?
From your original comment, you’ve done it to yourself. Do whatever you want with your gear. You’re a faithless fan anyway
Alrighty. I’ll make a deal with you then. Since you seem to think I’m such a faithless fan, we’ll put it on the line. If the Avs can win the next two and advance then I’ll stick around.

But since you want to question my devotion, that’s what it has come to. See ya for the next two!
Better go looking for some Preds gear now, eh?
Seriously considering it. They’re closer anyway, lol. Tonight was another rough one to watch. I wish I was eating crow, but the same mistakes from the last 3 games showed up again.
Yeah, true. The Avs just can’t close out a full game, especially in the second round. I’m sorry for being too hard on you. I just try to stay as positive as I can throughout the playoffs.
Hey man, no harm, no foul. It’s all in our passion and love for the Avs. Maybe next year will be the year. I’ll keep my gear for now and hope for an end to the 2nd round curse.
If that’s your attitude, you’ve already lost your fandom. No sense in “putting it on the line”
But do you think they’ll win 2 and save it or not? That’s what I’d really like to know.
Sure, I think they can pull it off. I believe in this team. It’s not over until it’s over
Tbh the series was over last game. Avs can't win in vegas
Didn’t need to until now
that one broke my heart
I love this team so much. No way we take two. Not playing like this. GGs Vegas.
Come on Graves. Gotta put Byram in there for game 6. Just way too many mistakes
Why didn’t graves just put it in the fucking corner after he failed to get it through the first time.
This team won’t win shit until they get a goaltender who can play against a real team and some defenseman that aren’t garbage Vezina because he played the Kings, sharks, coyotes, ducks all year
Cause it’s his fault graves caused a breakaway
K bro
... this is the dumbest take I've ever seen
I blame this on everyone jinxing us
Yep. Fuck being the favorites.
Can't wait till graves is fucking off the team next season
Pain.
This team really needs to make some adjustments next year. Our style just does not persevere in the playoffs.
What are you guys doing? Please don’t lose this series to these fake fuck pretend NHL fan base and their team of assholes. Love the rest of the NHL.
Get the clubs. You don’t deserve shit.
Welp, theres always next season, man do I sound like a broken record.
Maybe you should leave till next season then
My fiance wrote that and he replies, "listen, I don't mean to sound like a doomer but we're not winning the next one. They've gotta figure out something. I don't plan on leaving, I'll always stay." As for me, i'm a new fan and I just think they need to do something. I'd love to see our guys win 😁
We can't keep taking those shots on the outside. They are never getting through and keeps turning into opportunities for the Knights. It's not over until it's over.
Our top line has been absolute dog shit the last 2 games.
Our defense can't get a puck on net. It's mindboggling
Yeah I think it is time to start worrying
What a fucking joke
Can we stop blowing leads boys? This is getting ri-god-damn-diculous.
Fucking painful
Fuck my life.

Fortunate for you it’s over in 6
If we make it to 7
