    Lots of opportunities, nothing to show for it after one against LA.

    I just don't see the Av's winning the Stanley Cup with Grubs at goalie and this team not scoring more goals than they have been.

      This was an absolutely atrocious home loss.

        What a pathetic loss.

        Absolute garbage performance. All those shots, one goal. Then lose it with less than a minute.

        Sloppy.

            That’s gonna be my concern going into the postseason. This team seems snakebit this year. Possibly just too soft as well.

              Av's getting out-muscled by Buffalo. Gave up a soft goal after taking the lead.

              They are a mirror image of the Nuggets. Come out flat, even against lesser opponents.

              Annoying.

                If the Av's come out of this game with any points, they'll be lucky. Sabres are having their way against us.

                    If only St Louis weren’t hotter. I realized yesterday that under this new stupid playoff format the Avs can finish the 2 seed and be screwed with Dallas first round who is the 3 seed.

                      I may be nitpicking a bit, but I would like to see us score more than 3 goals. We haven't topped 3 goals in almost a month. I would have thought that should have been easy against a bad Red Wings squad.

                      Anyway, I'm very happy with the win streak and with the play of our goalie.

                        What does that matter if your defense is allowing less? The goal is to outscore your opponents and they’ve done that 7 straight games.

                        Playoffs aren’t going to be won in the 4-5 goals a game range. That’s a regular season desire.

                        Playoffs will be win in the 3-2 average range.

                            We never win in OT. It is the weirdest thing. I told my GF right as they got the puck, theres enough time for us to lose this real fast. Boom. We lost.
                            The odd thing is without talent and speed we should dominate in OT. Oh well. We got another point. Lets just keep climbing up the ladder.
                            So far:
                            FA- Melvin Gordon. Brandon Scherff
                            1. Kenneth Murray LB; 2. Shenault WR; 2B. Biadazz Center, 3. OT

                                I'm was just saying that I would like to see our offense come out on fire every now and then....put the pressure on the opponent.
