Is Gibson just not going to get traded…. again
My favorite player on avs is wood
They should be using Wedgewood as the starter. The dude is a great goalie who needs a chance to be the guy
Man goalies are fickle.
Why didn't they get a goalie at the trade deadline last season? Why overplay Georgie while Annunen sat on the bench last year. Is it any wonder Georgie was burned out or played into the ground?
He deserves better, good luck to him in San Jose
The Colorado tandem needs to be nicknamed "The Forest"
Have fun playing in Europe next year!
The 2 New Jersey "Woods" united again
There's a gay joke somewhere in here about the Avs liking Wood
So the Avalanche goaltending tandem is Wedgewood and Blackwood? Is there a guy named Redwood or Elwood worth a look in the minors?
Avs fleeced SJS here.
Blackwood is a .91 SV goalie on a way worse team with 3gaa, while Georgiev had .874 and 3.38 GAA this season on the better team.
On top, Blackwood is about 1m cheaper in cap.
Kovalenko is the way better RW, but Avs might find a role for Smith in the 4th line as an energizer and goon.
But a downgrade in RW and a 2nd to fix your goalie problem? That`s a nobrainer.
The exchange of 5ths doesn`t matter.
It should have cost the Avs a 1st.
This could be possible a really good trade we will see
24-25 Georgiev stats:
.880 or better in 6 of 18 games
0 consecutive .900 games
GAA 3.38
SV% .874
Brutal.
Incorrect, to get Blackwood the Avs got an unbelievable deal. Gerogie has been literally the worst goalie in the league and the Avs get a solid goalie in return plus more.
Let's go!
The Avalanche better hope Blackwood will be better with a new team considering how strong the Central Division is.
We had Sherwood a few seasons ago too… and we got 2 woods in a week. Thats pretty good considering
Hey San Jose, if you’re looking for another Nabokov… He ain’t it!
Gabe needs to retire already.. dude is a dark cloud holding us in purgatory
sharks boy here, i feel like we made a good trade for our tending, and i like the draft picks we got alongside it. that said, im surprised they took a 1 for 1 on players , i expected a trade that would let askarov take the net sooner but we’ll see.
Good moves by the Av's. Good luck to Georgiev.
That's a woody…
All the wood’s are former Devils too
The Sharks could have got way more.
Aren't there also some redwoods in Colorado?
All three were on the Devils as well.. So this is the second time all three Woods have been on the same team lol.
They need to make MacKinnon the captain!!!
Наконец то обменяли этого Георгиева .
lol its like when Roy retired in the mid eartly 00s and Aebischer was his replacment. de ja vu?
Avs fan: holy it’s about time. I’m glad we made this trade. Kovalenko has top 6 potential and it sucks to lose him, but I think Blackwood is definitely worth it. Seems like a great trade for where each team is respectively.
Not convinced this is an upgrade for the Avs but it's definitely not a downgrade and it's good shakeup for the team. Good on the GM for moving quickly and addressing an issue that needed to be addressed and not sticking his head in the sand like some other GMs. Cough…Buffalo…cough.
Holy crap, the Wood brothers combine. Way too powerful
Blackwood, Wedgewood, Miles Wood
I don't blame the goalies at all, the avalanche don't have the balls to do what they need to on the blue line
As a Dallas Fan, i'm terrified of Wedgewood being the goalie that beats us. Blackwood is a great goalie that was just playing with bad defenses and was still putting up good numbers. On Colorado, he could be elite with Makar, Toews, Girard. All those guys in front of him.
Chris Macfarland must be a beaver with all this wood he's puttin together
Thanks for sharing such valuable information! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
