Brock Nelson and the Colorado Avalanche body the Montreal Canadiens | DNVR Avalanche Postgame

Big boy musket. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Welcome in to the NVR Avalanche postgame show presented by Bet 365. We are live. Jim Iikinudo coming to you as the ABS beat the Montreal Canadians 7-2. Just the third touchdown of the month for the Colorado Avalanche. Pretty good stuff from a hockey team. It’s never a bad day when your NHL team scores a touchdown. Um dominant performance. Hard not to feel great about everything. Yeah, you know, it’s a hockey game. Not everything’s perfect, but after losing a game the other night, the ABS punch back immediately and you go back to not worrying about anything for the most part. I think you saw what you hoped to see in this one, which was a nice response. He jumped out to a to a dominant lead. He didn’t have to play from behind. He didn’t do a bunch of dumb stuff in this one. Didn’t make it a game unnecessarily. Credit Montreal. Came out firing, but didn’t work. Did not work. And then they went went away sort of at times. chasing really the rest of the game. You’re not wrong and hard to do. ABS set themselves up for success. They did in fact find that success. Uh I’m going to do my best to fit this into 60 seconds, but uh there’s a lot of goals, so we’ll do the 60cond rundown and see where I end up. First period mentioned by J. Mike. First five minutes, Montreal really did push the probably the best stretch of the game for them, but the ABS survived. Some good play from Blackwood. And then Brock Nelson breaks through for the first goal of the game off of a nice finish. And that’s followed up a handful of minutes later by weird goal. We’ll talk about it. Landy ends up getting credit for it. It maybe technically didn’t even go in the net. Ads are up two nothing after one. You love that. They start immediately in the second period with Brent Burns. The defense getting involved to make it three nothing. Brock Nelson scores again. We’ll talk about Brock a lot. That makes it 4 nothing. Finally, Montreal gets on the board and it is essentially meaningless as they don’t have any other follow-up. It’s four to one until the last minute of the second where Nathan McKinna makes it 5 to one. Game was over there. Third period, mostly academic, but Taves finally gets on the board with his first goal of the season, too. And then both teams trade power play goals with Landy making it a multi-goal night for him. Hey, look, I made it. Not bad for a 7-2 game. Pretty good. Well, captain my captain. I mean, I I I know we’ll talk about him more later, but there is a genuine conversation that I don’t know about the whole streak the ABS have been on, but for the last two weeks of it, Gabe Landisk might be their best player. He’s all the way back. Mhm. I mean, I think there was some some offensive rust early on. The hands obviously took a while to to come back, but we’re seeing him do old school classic landy stuff at this point. And and that’s the thing for me. The first goal is weird and and whatever. The It’s a nothing goal really. It makes it 72 on the power play, but vintage Landers, great tip, net front, the exact type of stuff you’ve been waiting to see this season from Landy. Combine that with the game he had last night, combine that with the quality of play, and yeah, he’s back. I just think you open up the element of of the offense. You get that roaring again like it was a couple years ago with the firepower you’ve already got going. I just I don’t know how you defend this team at some point. Uh apparently you don’t based on this game. Opposing teams don’t either to be fair. I and I don’t know like I feel bad for Montreal because what do you do in this game? Like where do you look at your game and say ah we really could have done this better. And of course you say well defend better. But so many of these goals are not that Montreal played perfect defense, but the Yavs creating stuff that there aren’t many teams in the league that are going to be able to stop. It just felt like the the execution passing to this evening, I keep saying tonight. You know what I mean? It was in Yeah, it it was perfection. Like they tonight, but yeah. No, I fully agree with what you’re saying. it. I think the ABS have maybe not had the best execution for a significant portion of this stretch that they’ve been on and they’re winning anyway because they’re just so good. But tonight, you look at some of those goals and just go, “Ah, that’s that’s why there’s a reason they’re 110 and two this month.” Yeah. Have not had a regulation loss in the month of November. That’s asinine. What? What? Everything this team is doing though. And I mean, you look at the streaks and he just gets his point streak at home. And Yep. Nate with what, 20 goals in 25 games like this. It’s just hard to to find stuff unless you want to nitpick. I mean, obvious uh I hated the penalty that Taz took in the third period if we want to whine about something. I mean, that’s where we’re at, though. Yeah, that that’s how deep the nitpick is is it was at the time a 6 to1 game and I feel like Montreal came out and and they really made that early push. Absolutely. And then Blackwood, credit him, made two, even three really impressive saves in the moment, was seeing the puck well, was moving well, covering a ton of ground. And it just kind of felt like after not scoring on that push and then Brock just ripping one past like right after that and it was, oh, okay, we’re going to lose this game. And they they did. Montreal had 12 shots in the first period. They had 11 shots in the rest of the game. And to amplify that even more, Montreal actually had 10 shots in the first 10 minutes of the first period. I remember looking up at one point and the shots were like 1212 and that was after the ABS had kind of responded and taken control and it does not feel like the shots are even in this game and they ended 36 to 23 in the ABS favor. Look, a good portion of this is Montreal absolutely went away and like acknowledged that. But the ABS understood the assignment. This is a third and four for both teams. They got ahead by multiple goals in the first period and yeah, they got to get away with it from there. I mean, and especially at home, like there’s just that’s human nature. The inevitability of this team starts to set in and you know, you go down two, three goals against Colorado in Colorado. I don’t think there’s a lot of teams that are going to have the the mental bandwidth, especially playing, you know, multiple games in multiple days to to pull that one out. it. The ABS are too good for teams to get punished by their mistakes. And we’ve seen a lot of nights this year where the ABS maybe they’re up against a good goalie. Maybe they’re playing sloppy. Whatever it is, they have to grit it out, grind it out, and really generate a high number of chances to convert and find their way to a win on the offensive side. They just scored. Yeah, they didn’t. They absolutely did not need to do that tonight. They they got their chances. They took advantage of them. They finished and then they generated a bunch of high dangers anyway and that’s how you get a seven-goal game. I feel like every time they had a chance to push the pace and and really, you know, put put Montreal on their heels, they did a great job of that. Yeah, they you’re going to give us the puck here with space in the middle of the ice. That’s we go. Yeah, we go fast. it probably deserve more credit than I’m giving the ABS there cuz they’re on a three and four too and and their legs found that jump to to consistently pressure Montreal in those situations and Montreal just couldn’t hang frankly. Not that Montreal isn’t fun, not that they even aren’t a good team. I think yeah, I think they’re a solid NHL team this year. Probably a playoff team. The East is so crazy competitive. Who knows? But the ABS just went out there and embarrassed them to be honest. This was a shellacking for 55 minutes. And I you expect, especially in the NHL, you expect a little bit of punch back. There was never really came not a lot of punch back from Montreal tonight in in any way, shape, or form. Yes, I know they scored a couple of goals, but this this was not a game where they were all that competitive with an ABS team that was I mean the ABS backed it off in the third, but when this was still even in the realm of being a hockey game, the ABS said we’re going to win. There was like a 10-minute stretch in that second period where they were just Montreal was just chasing the ABS the entire time. It was it was the ABS play desperation trying to get the puck out of the zone and get you know a change and then here they are coming right back at us again. And that’s tough on any night let alone when you’re tired when you’re on the road when you’re exhausted and when you look up and the guy making you chase is Nathan McKinnon by the way. Like it’s the got a little bit of everything tonight too. Um, we’ll talk about some of the specific guys higher up the lineup in in the next period, but goals from your first line, goals from your second line, maybe more importantly, production points from guys all over your lineup. Kyron gets in with an assist tonight. Uh, Burns obviously with the goal on the defensive side is is awesome for you, but you also saw a bunch of mixed lines that ended up creating stuff for you. Yeah, your top line did some heavy lifting. Some of that was with Landiskog. Some of that was with Lechin. Some of that was with weird broken lineups that the ABS just I mean by the end they were just throwing dudes out there. But the ABS this year I think have found a wild amount of success. Like there aren’t a lot of teams that are like I don’t know just play everyone in our top nine together in any possible combination you can think of and it just works and you still probably score. Yeah. Right. Like that’s not normal. The success that they’ve had experimenting this year has been pretty impressive and I think is a testament to to Beder. You know, we were talking I don’t remember if that was on the watch along or pregame to be honest when we were talking about coach’s impact and how much can you actually impact in game on the fly. That type of stuff is I think somewhere where where BSY’s been quite impressive. Yeah, he he’s always liked the blender and you know over the years some night some years he’s had success and some maybe less. So far this year, it’s probably the most successful we’ve seen the ABS when they jumble the lines and it just feels like he’s pressing all the right buttons when it comes to the lineup. When they call somebody up, oh, this no-name guy ends up balling out the the goalie decisions. It just he’s got the finger on the pulse right now. Top to bottom, it I mean, you know, maybe it’s a little bit easier to have the pulse when you when you’re this good. 16game point streak. It feels like anything you do is made of gold at that point. But anything is possible. But I mean, look no further than Gabe Landiskog’s usage in this game. All tonight, uh, I don’t actually know his TOI. I imagine it’s pretty high. Let’s take a look. Uh, for the ABS, Gabe Landiskog ended up playing 1612, but the TOI is ridiculous in this game. The highest time on ice forward is Artur Lechin who played 1814 which is obscenely low and we saw at the end of the game top line. Yeah. Well, we saw at the end of the game they threw out the bottom of the lineup on the power play because the game was over and they’re trying to rest. Good sportsmanship, Bedsy. Yeah. Minimum forward time 1023. So everybody played, everybody got their fair share of ice time and everybody rocked. Kind of exactly what you would want in this, right? you know, back to back weird matinea game. Let’s try not to overexert anybody. Let’s get everybody involved. Yep. And defensive side, not all that different. Kale did lead time on ice with 21, which not I think the second time in this stretch this has happened, but for Kale, that’s like no minutes. Uh, second most, Sam Molinsky broke the 20-minute mark. So, a little bit of an adjustment in usage there on that side. Brent Burns also broke the 20-minute mark. Your low man was actually Devon Taves with 1636. And this was probably one of the best if he wasn’t in the box. Yeah, true. True. But it’s I think this is where you really start to see sneaky games gains rather from a really good team when they find ways to get nights like tonight where they can get everyone a couple of extra minutes off when they can find those extra bits of rest. I know there’s a lot of worry in the Absosphere about how like, oh well, you don’t want them to win the president’s trophy because they’re going to have to work way too hard to get it. Knights like tonight are proof that the ABS can get to a president’s trophy while not overexerting themselves. Yeah, I think it’s easy to oversimplify those types of conversations of like, well, it depends on, you know, every game is different. Every minute you play is different. Is it high stress minutes? Trying to grind into the playoffs can be more challenging than for sure, you know, pushing for the one. Yep. It I I’m of the belief of if you if you have an opportunity to push for home field in in any sport, it’s worth it. Now, obviously, there are times you want to rest them, of course. And like Yeah. Like there are going to be stretches. Hopefully that you do both. Yeah. Exactly. I don’t I don’t care if you break any records for points or anything like that. I’m not about that life for sure. I I’m sitting here like trying to actually rack my brain for proper negatives in this game and like yeah, you gave up two goals, but who cares? Those aren’t aren’t particularly meaningful. You held the Canadians team to just 23 shots that and they had to stretch to get that. Yeah, you’re mission accomplished. When we talked in the pregame about how this is a team that shouldn’t generate much and all you have to do is really prevent their shooters from being all that dangerous. That’s more or less what the ABS did tonight. The the You had two instances where you let him get him off. Yeah. Great shots on both of them. Yeah. And especially the first one. Okay, cool. You more than outscored that problem and the other handful of high danger chances you gave up. Your goalie was there for you. Blackwood was awesome. That’s that’s what a hockey team looks like. A very good hockey team. In fact, that’s what they look like. This team’s just so much fun right now. It’s It’s a blast, dude. This is a top to bottom. Everything is going well. And obviously that’s fun. But this is also a team that feels different than the last couple of years. I think it feels similar to the end of of 22 and the end of the regular season, the cup run. Not the part where they just rested everybody and went four, five, and one, but they have that aura around them that just feels like even if they’re not going to win tonight, they are going to make the other team work their butts off and they’re going to they’re just relentless because not only are they talented, but they do the little things. so many of and they get so much production across the board from those second and third lines that it’s just Yep. It’s like an avalanche. Yeah, it’s a great way to phrase it. Um, as a team, I genuinely don’t think I can find a a overarching negative from this game. You would have liked to have scored on one of those earlier power plays, but the process was good. And again, I mean, it’s they did technically score on one like the numbers look good in the end. Yeah. And you know, the I mean, they they do need to find a way to score more with consistency. We’ve said it a million times. We’ll keep saying it until that turns, but when you’re winning seven to two and when you’re this dominant and five on five. Yeah. Well, what more can you ask for? I I don’t know. I’m sure someone in chat will find something to ask for, but I don’t know, man. I could ask for some Canes right now, dude. It’s like not even that late. Very much avail. Make every meal merry this holiday season with raisin canes, cooked order chicken fingers, crispy crinkle cut fries, buttery Texas toast, and that smooth cane sauce. The holiday cheer doesn’t end there. Canes is bringing the holiday classic, a Christmas story to life with three limited edition plush puppies. Available in restaurant or online through December 31st or while supplies last. Net proceeds benefit the Bizel Pet Foundation. Love that. Hundreds of pet welfare organizations across the country. Raising Kane’s Chicken Fingers, one love. The holiday season obviously in full swing at this point. I’m already getting like the pre Christmas anxiety moments. So, I got to get the shopping done. I got to figure out how to appease everybody and be at 8 million holiday parties and all that fun stuff. The nice thing about Dick Sporting Goods, I know I can get what I am looking for every time I go there. They’ve got the hottest apparel. They’ve got the best footwear in town. Nike, Adidas Original, Hoka, they’ve got DNVR in in Dick Sporting Goods. It’s awesome. Get any gear you’re looking for. Uh, you know, Rudo and I these days, we’re not we’re not that active, but maybe you got kids who are playing baseball, they’re playing football, soccer, basketball, golf, you name it, they’ve got it. Get your gear fast. Free curbside pickup at your nearest store or of course, easy shipping from dicks.com because every season starts at dicks. I stick to the tailgating parts of dicks more than the actual athletic parts of dicks at this point, I think. Hey, I got a lot of fun stuff though. You know, I can spend an easy 20 minutes just looking at like the Oh, this is a nice folding ch Oh, and a cup holder. Yeah, now we’re talking. This is my lane. I’m leaning into adulthood and suburbia. Second period of the DNVR Avalanche podcast. Let’s get to the three stars of the game. And I think we’ll have far more individuals to actually shout out than just the three stars as we go through this. All the abs are good indeed. Hit thumbs up if y’all are watching live on YouTube. Yeah, give me give us our winner shots. What are we doing here? Only at 56. Step it up. Last time Tiff got me Jameson. I want a Jagger winner shot. [Laughter] Uh star number three, Marty Nous. Great game. And I think for a guy that we felt like maybe hadn’t played his best over the last two, three, four games, even if the production was there, it felt like at times a little messy, a little sloppy. You said in the first period, J Mike, tonight the execution was there and and I think Natious is a leading example of that where the plays connected tonight and some of that is maybe some simplification, maybe some smarter decisions. I do think Nate has made the decision to shoot at times tonight, which even if the shots didn’t result in goals, just keeping the other team honest, yeah, it opens up some stuff. And then some of the passing work tonight was just elite stuff from Marty. That’s that’s when everything’s clicking. You go, “Oh, wow. This kid’s really really good. He’s so skilled.” Yep. I understand that all of the drama of last year, I think it made it hard to kind of fully appreciate like how good of a player he actually is. Yeah. He is a perfect fit next to McKinnon. Yeah. I they vibe together so well when especially when things are going well but even when you know it might not be clicking they do some frustrating stuff at times but there’s always that breakthrough play I think that they usually are able to get their hands on and tonight I you know Marley Marty was just doing his globe troder thing the the setup for Nelson’s second real goal is just outrageously good hog like how many players on the planet can go find a puck with multiple sticks around him in the high crease area and then against his body flick a puck back to Nelson for Nel the easiest goal of Brock Nelson’s career to ever score while using his eyes to keep the stick of the defenseman on Nelson’s side on the wrong spot so the passing lane to Nelson stays open like it’s just the amount of skill on that pass is outrageous. ously stupid. It’s like when you see, you know, a great quarterback look off the safety with his eyes or, you know, Nicole manipulating space and I’m going to put this here, which is where you need to be to execute, but the defender’s never going to see it coming because I’m not going to I’m not going to telegraph it. Well, and I can do all that and then I’ll throw it into the dirt, right? Like [Music] that, too. It’s the execution on the backside of all of that that makes you go, “Wow.” And Marty had all the execution tonight. Fun to watch. It is the words that are going to keep coming up for this hockey game. He was that. So was Nate. I’m sure we’ll talk about him in a little bit. Uh but star number two in this one goes to the captain himself, Gabe Landiskog, with a three-point night. We we talked about how great he was a little bit already, but the ABS are starting to build a little bit of like I don’t want to like reuse the three-headed monster phrase, but it feels like let’s rebrand it. Yeah. I mean, I think we’re getting to that. We’re starting to see the little sneakiness of Jared Bednar working it into a three-headed monster, right? Every game the first line starts as Nas Lechin McKinnon. We’ve seen a little bit of when Bedar feels like Nes might not be having his best game. You get McKinnon Landy Lechin today. You got a little bit of Landy McKinnon Nis. Um it might be a problem for the NHL. I mean, when you just when you factor in what Landy can do up in front of the net and the physicality that he can bring you up there and then also trying to keep up with the pace of those two and Kale Mar just might happen to be on the ice at some point, too. Don’t forget about him back there. Again, I just I don’t know defensively what you really do other than like hopefully hopefully they accidentally let it go out of the zone, right? They have to screw up. there’s nothing you can do to stop that. But I just I also think there’s something to be said about, you know, we make the jokes about McKinnon and being a robot and then, you know, not showing emotion, but it very clearly and you can see it. Yeah. It means something to him to be out there with Landy and the joy when they’re able to produce together. I just even when the hands weren’t there earlier in the season. I kept talking about I understand that the the production isn’t phenomenal right now, but there’s a vibe with him being back and the energy that he brings out of everybody else that they very clearly feed off of. And now that he’s also producing on top of that immaculate vibes, dare I say, just overwhelming depth, man. Yeah. And you know, we’ve said for a long time, Landy has always been the ABS emotional center, but that’s what we mean when you go look at McKinnon’s face when Landy scores. Yeah. And it’s like I think at times over the past couple of years, the ABS have forgotten that like they play a kids game for a job and that hockey is fun. I think it wears on you, especially when you have backto-back heartbreaking playoff losses, everything that you’re going through. And it’s very easy for us or for the fan base to sit here and go, “Oh, the ABS are winning a ton. Hockeyy’s super fun. Like, this is great.” It’s not uncommon to see teams like put so much pressure on themselves that they’re like, “Nothing matters. We have to win. No fun, only good.” And I think McKinnon has some of that at times because And it’s, you know, it’s give and take. It’s both what makes him one of the best players in the world and what makes him hard to deal with, I think, in the locker room at times. But that Landy presence has I just think the yin and yang they they just they balance each other so well. And I think Liy’s one of the few guys who can, you know, look at him in those moments and be like, “Hey man, chill out. Let’s have some fun. We just scored a sick goal. Be happy about it. We’re really freaking good. This is fun.” And when you have, you know, not to get too corny, but you know, Landee’s got such a unique perspective. He was obviously always such an important presence from a leadership standpoint, but I think even more so now, just the respect that he commands in that room. Like I don’t know. I think it’s it’s almost like Pton Manningesque when he came to the Broncos of like this guy just it’s not just about what he does out on the the field, the ice. It’s it’s the presence. You don’t go through what Gabe Landiskog has gone through and just decide not to savor every moment of the hockey anymore. Landy has that perspective that he understands how special it is what the Colorado Avalanche get to do every day. I think that’s big for McKinnon and Mar who, you know, they’re obviously still in the prime of their career and and can get lost in that relentless pursuit of greatness, which I love that they have. I love the standard is what it is. Yeah. But this is supposed to be fun and right now this team is really fun. Yeah. I no argument with any of that. Uh our first star of the game, yes, the captain was great, but the silver star goes to the lieutenant Brock C. Nelson. Uh a four-point night for Brock. A huge game for him as an individual. Yes. Uh, but also, and I know it’s a bit silly to track it this closely, with a four-point night tonight, Brock Nelson moves up to a 16 points in 25 games pace, which you always like to say, hey, you could produce more. Maybe there’s there’s more in the bag. But at 16 points in 25 games, that puts Nelson on a Hang on, I can do math on air live. 52 point pace. that smidge low maybe for a 2C but much more in the realm of yeah this is where you want your your 2C to be as far as production is concerned. I think from an eye test standpoint too it’s it’s yes if it was going to be like a 40point season then at some point you just have to produce more. Yep. But the process has been good and now we’re seeing an uptick in the production too. And the other side of that eight goals he’s finishing 25 plus goal pace on an 82 game season. That is literally the reason that he was brought in. The ABS had run through some centers that at times could do the job, but really struggled to actually be a finisher to really have that impact on scoring goals. And if Brock Nelson’s doing that for you, I mean, that’s how you get to seven. It’s it’s super super huge for the ABS to get a little bit of that. And Nelson really obviously a four-point night is huge. makes up for a couple of of pointless games over the last few days, which you know, when you beat teams one- nothing in shutouts, a lot of people are going to have some pointless games. But Nelson in November has been the guy the Avalanche went out and signed. That’s the dude they need. So, I think he’s Yeah, he’s being the guy that you you invested in. Yeah. Right. You committed to and that version of him that’ll play all day obviously tonight, but I mean the month of November version of him is is exactly where the ABS are happy with. Uh, he’s got a gonna have some fun stuff to write about to his his dear Maline. Yeah, only a couple tweets and one of them was on a goal that didn’t even end up being his, which I did want to talk about briefly here. It ends up getting credited to Landy. Weird goal. I don’t I really don’t know. Might have been goalender interference. Might have been a kick. Apparently was neither. Yeah, that was also then a penalty on Montreal and like is should you even count that as a goal because the net was off clearly intentionally or not necessarily intentionally but clearly if anybody created by Montreal if anybody is deserving of some goals at this point the mans do he’s earned earned a few to say the least so I don’t really know what to make of the situation but you’ll take it as the abs that it counted and Let’s be honest, the ABS were breaking through in this one anyway and going to find their way to those goals. The game was Yeah, it was well within Colorado’s control at that point. Just maybe not from a a score standpoint, but you could feel the tide had turned. Yeah, 100%. It there was just not much that Montreal did to turn the tide or change the effect. Yeah, I I it’s human nature, right? You can only do so much as a human being and especially when all right you felt like you had some good portions of the first period and things didn’t go your way. You’re down two. That’s a tough spot. You give up a goal 50 seconds into the second period and it’s like maybe it’s just not our night, boys. All right. It’s tough. Start looking up. What movies are streaming? You know what? Am I gonna watch Christmas movies on Hulu yet? Or when do we get to fly home? What’s the postgame dinner? It’s worth noting that like Montreal is not in the best stretch of their season, but they were they came in wins in a row. Yeah. They were finding ways to win on this road trip that they were on. And I then they got a Yeah. Well, especially going to Colorado is where like teams good vibes go to die right now. The ABS on home ice are not just beating teams, they’re shellacking people. Vibes are immaculate. I If only they can stay this way forever. I hope you guys are making money on this. It’s really not that hard. Even I hit a bet today and I picked crazy stuff there.

I was like, so I just say this. I mean, you gotta I I feel like you have to say it. The ABS should be saying it right now. Feels like they’re they’re in the money. Here comes the money. I do want to talk about a number of other players, but I want to get Jared Bednar’s thoughts on some of the ABS players from tonight, too. So, let’s hear from the head coach on another big fat win. We’re going to start over here with Terry Pride. Terry, go ahead. If you can step back, if you’re capable of stepping back, how impressed by all of this, the record, the performance, the dominance, how impressed are you? Yeah. Well, no, really happy, pleased, um, and impressed for sure. Like I think um it’s just probably the most important thing for me is like the focus of the team and like the we’re on pretty even keel. You know, it’s the guys are playing hard. They’re playing well. We’ve been competitive and committed pretty much every time the puck drops, you know. So, I would say it’s been a long and good run here for us. Hopefully that can continue. But it’s um it’s not easy to win in this league for sure and um we’ve had our moments but I think like you you take the season as a whole to get to this point with this record it’s been been a really good job Gabes things are going Gab’s way it seems um comments about him and how he’s playing how he’s coming along. He he’s really coming along you know like he’s looks like he’s starting to get his legs underneath him a little bit more. Um he’s been cuz he you look at his game early in the year like he’s committed to doing all the right things in with and without the puck. Um didn’t look like he had great legs to start the season. So if the skating kind of drops off just a little bit, everything is just that much more difficult to play and and do the, you know, make things happen offensively especially. Um but his best games, like I said earlier in the year, were after a couple days off, rested. he seemed to have some extra pop. Um, but now we’re seeing it like we’ve been this end of a three and four and he’s and he’s looked like he had great legs again tonight and he and he was awesome last night, especially in the third period against Mindy. So, um, it it’s starting to come together for him. Looks confident. looks like he’s, you know, finding his game again, you know, and it was always pretty good this year, but now it’s like these last couple games and a handful of others have been exceptional. Erling Cory, it feels like a lot of times when teams have winning streaks like the one you guys had get snapped, it like it takes a couple games of losses before you get back on your stride. You guys don’t even have 24 hours to bounce back. You can put up a performance like that. Like, how’s that what are you guys doing to make that possible? Well, again, I’ll just go back to the sort of focus and determination of the group and we felt like we played a really good game last night. You know, got away from us a little bit the second period. They had a strong push and we answered back in the third. So, we felt good about that and, you know, it’s a shootout loss again, so not a regulation loss. And, um, so I think it was a little bit easier to turn the page. Plus, it’s not like they’re rested waiting on us either. like they have a tough schedule and they’re they played last night or yesterday afternoon and they had to come in. So, both teams kind of in the same boat for today and our guys were looking forward to kind of grinding their way through another one and and then getting the day off. So, um but again, it’s just I think it’s the leadership focus of our group right now is what’s helping us through some of those. Cory, then Megan, I think one guy that maybe didn’t have his best day yesterday was was Marty. Didn’t blame him at all in overtime. Um he was pretty good in the game though. Okay. But then he just the fact that he bounced back and looked I he was everywhere tonight. Yeah. No, he was skating well and and he had moments in yesterday’s game was really really good as well. Not as dangerous as I would have liked him to be because he didn’t want to shoot the puck last night. Um I saw flashes of that today. But what he did do is he went to the interior of the ice. He gets rewarded by stopping at the net on that play by Taser. and but he was impactful tonight and and and you know if I looked at his game as a whole last night he was committed on the defensive side and he played hard for us yesterday too. Megan then Ryan you talked about offensive contributions for Devonte maybe needing to come into his game a little bit more. He gets a goal. It’s really effective on the breakout on those early goals. Is this truer to his form? Yes. I mean, it’s, you know, like we were zipping the puck pretty good today and like I thought all of our D really helped us on our breakouts and got us moving through the neutral zone. Like Montreal plays with really good pace and they we had a little bit of a tough time in the first period staying with their speed coming through the neutral zone and they created some rush chances. I thought we did a better job of sort of jamming them up later on, but that has to be part of our game as well and it can’t just be Kale. it has to be all of our guys and and um they’re bought into that. But I just felt like, you know, in the recent pass at Taser had another step to take to get involved. Then you see how effective he was tonight. He was getting that, you know, pass on the weak side of the ice on the breakouts and and joining through the neutral zone and making things happen right from the drop of the puck and where he end up with one and one, you know, so it was good job by him and like to see it continue. You said that you’ve wanted to see Marty shoot more, but in in other instances, we’ve seen Marty put the team on his back and make some great plays. Do you prefer him to be more of the shooter or more of the playmaker? Which one? Well, it’s got to be a balance. Like if he’s seeing guys open and he can make the play and they can shoot it, great. But when I just find that there’s instance, Marty, he’s such an elusive skater that he can kind of take whatever ice is given to him. And he gets into the interior of the ice sometimes with his skating and we’ve got good traffic at the net. And sometimes I don’t think you need to look for much more than put it there. And because I I think he can score from distance. He’s got a great shot. He can place it where he wants it. And if you have any type of screen in traffic, sometimes the the best play is just deliver it to the net, you know. So, I think it has to be a balance for him. I want him to continue to be um, you know, creative. I want him to continue to use his skill and his instincts, but I want to kind of try and change him a little bit that when he does use all that and he gets into the interior of the ice and into areas where I think he can score, then I want him to shoot it. Calling the Jesse. Brock Nelson’s had some great games. obviously this being one of his top ones, four points. What can you say about him and that line playing tonight? Yeah, they’re coming together. I I’ve liked a lot of their games here recently and and tonight they kind of set the tone for us. They were our best line and you know, Mack was under the weather and not feeling great for the entire game and he did a nice job battling through it and Marty was obviously good with Lucky, but that that line was dangerous right away off the rush in zone play and and doing a great job on the checking side of it too. So, um, they got us going in the right direction for sure tonight. It’s good to see some go in from Brock, too, and some of the chances he’s getting. He’s been consistently, you know, building chances, but I think it’s, you know, you want to see your guys get rewarded for that. I know that he went through some frustration earlier in the year, but now things are starting to go in for him. It’s a good sign. Last two, Jesse Evan. Mackenzie told us that he’s feeling a lot better, finding the puck better, you know, moving well on his edge as well. seven to two. You know, maybe doesn’t feel like you guys needed a great goal performance, but he came up with a couple big saves early game. Just your thoughts on him. Yeah, I thought he was great tonight. Yeah, early penalty kills, couple really dangerous looks from them. Uh, I mean, that kind of keeps the game where we want it to be and gives us a chance to build the lead. And, you know, again, I thought we did a nice job on the checking side, but for sure there’s you always need a handful of big saves on any given night. He provided those for us tonight. Kevin, I know you don’t totally look at the standings and you’re only competing against yourself, but second best team in the league’s behind you in the division, third, you saw Minnesota yesterday, they’re red hot. Like, yeah, is it under normal circumstances, you guys would have created a gap now, but it’s not keeping that way. So, is it good to maybe have that these teams behind you that can force you to maybe not get complacent maybe at this time? I think we’re looking at that every day like, you know, especially when you get on a little bit of a streak and team C. Like I touched on, I think you’re going to get, you know, every team’s best night and um best game. So, it’s motivation enough for us and what we’re trying to accomplish. I don’t think we need that. I’d love to have a lot more breathing room, but we don’t. So, our division is good. I mean, we’ve said it for years. This is a difficult division. There’s a lot of powerful teams in this division, and we just want to keep building our game and um again, like you said, competing with ourselves. Okay. Thanks, J. Thanks, When you’re this good, there’s nobody else but yourself to compete with, I guess. Uh, chat, over 100 likes. Thank you very much. We got our Dr. Dubs winner shots here. We appreciate you. Take your medicine. Get the Dr. Dubs in the chat for our supporters club members. Good stuff. Pop quiz, chat. Who is the best plus minus player in the NHL? Give you five seconds, chat. Get your answers in. The answer is Nathan McKinnon. Second best is Kale Mar. Third best are Terry Lechin. Fourth best Marty Nes. Fifth best Devon Taves. This is in the NHL. This is not the ABS list. The five best plus minus players are all abs. And I know plus minus is when your goal differential is what it is. Yeah, that’s going to reflect nicely. But don’t read too much into it, but I I know it’s been going around. It’s hilarious. All the abs are good. and te set of facts facts around that and look got a smart chat. Good job guys. It’s funny. Yeah, look at you all know it. You’re all in there. Apparently McKinnon was sick. Yeah, you wouldn’t have known that if Bedar didn’t tell anybody. But three-point night. You got to do it though if you’re the coach. Like you’re a star guy now. You know, oh he’s a warrior. Yeah, it picks up a three-point night. Uh, it’s funny because the ABS have other I think more interesting storylines at least in the Absosphere to ABS fans about oh Gabe Landisk’s back. Oh, they’re finally they have a 2C with Brock Nelson. Oh, what happens when they get Nushkin back? Yeah, Nathan McKinnon has 44 points in 25 games and is in the lead in the NHL for points. He’s in the lead for goals. He’s in the lead for points per game of players that have played at least 10 games. Uh, and he’s doing it all at even strength. He has a handful of power play points of course, but compared to everybody else, no one is even in the ballpark of what Nathan McKinnon is doing at even strength and at all in general. The next closest player is Mlin Celibbrini who is eight points behind him. He’s been the most consistently impactful player in the NHL this year. Yeah, I like I don’t even think you can argue it. He is having he had a three-point night on a night he was sleepy and relatively, you know, right? Like that’s just another day for Nathan McKinnon. Just at the office, woke up, scored a couple goals. And Nathan McKinnon knows how to get points. He’s no stranger. He’s had over a 100red in his last three seasons. He had 140 point season in there, which is ridiculous. And what he’s on pace for to do this year. But that year he ended up with 51 goals and 89 assists, which is outrageous numbers. He’s already at 20. How many goals would be like genuinely shocking? Like what’s the like a 50 goal season is obviously really impressive, but that’s certainly seemingly in the cards at this point. Like a 75 goal season, 80 goal season. I couldn’t even go. If he got to 70, it would be The guys don’t do that anymore. Honestly, if he got to 65, it would be unbelievable. Like 60 would be really, really, really impressive, but he’s just started so good that it’s like, well, maybe. I mean, it could happen. 65 would be um yeah, I he’s not a good enough shooter to be a 65 goal scorer, and that’s not a knock on him. He’s obviously unbelievable, but has always been the volume guy that get that gets by with that. He hasn’t needed to be that guy this year. He’s his finishing rates are ridiculous. 18 and a half% actual shooting for the record. But I mean, it kind of feels like, you know, like Nicole Joic added a three-point shot these last couple years. Similar. And now it’s just like, what the hell are you supposed to do with this dude? McKinnon learned how to finish and he’s still going to shoot the puck 400 times this year. So, good luck. Like I don’t know what you do with him. Who? He’s hilarious, too, because every time you have a stretch where he’s a little sluggish for a couple of shifts and you’re right as you’re about to say something, he’s got the knack. Yeah, 100%. The guy where you’re like, “Okay, Nate, this is getting old.” And then Yeah. Okay. All right. Goal. Quick assist, too. Two point period. Yep. you were saying you completely uh forgive all of the missteps because that had just happens almost every night. I mean, let me actually look how many games McKinnon has gone pointless this year. There’s the one the other night against Chicago. I’m going to say three. There was one against the Islanders not too long ago. There’s one against Utah and one against Columbus. four four of 25 games has Nathan McKinnon not recorded a point in and uh he’s got more games in which he’s scored two goals than he does games with no points. Dumb MVP by a good margin if it happened tomorrow and the season’s long of course you have to keep going you have to stay healthy all of that but this is just it’s so best hockey he’s played. Oh, yeah. Uh I I I was going to say it, but then I didn’t want to put myself in a in a corner. He’s had, you know, better individual games than maybe in I mean, [ __ ] he has a five-point game this year. Uh I He has some four goal games. I think if you looked at one individual game, you could maybe find a better game from not this year, but from a stretch of hockey standpoint, no, I don’t think he’s ever played hockey to this level. And that’s Nathan McKinnon himself too. Yes. But you talked about the chemistry with Nis, the options with Lechin, the the joy he’s getting when he gets to get on the ice with Gabe Landiskog. It’s an entire cohesive unit for the Avalanche that is getting the most out of the best player in the world. Like it’s all just working for Colorado. I just I’m trying to think of like what’s something I could really harp on. what’s what’s something I could nitpick over and and really it’s just like the lack of power play production, but even then they still found the back of the net today. Yeah, they went one for four and the last one was a fake penalty. So they really like of the three legitimate power plays you had, the process was pretty solid. Yep. That was good. I like I feel like we’re good for a dumb penalty a game. Temper tantrum penalty. One thing that I’m like I guess try and manage your penalties a little bit better. It’s more so the Brock Nelson one early in the game for me that it’s like if your PK doesn’t get you there and Blackwood doesn’t play great on that PK, maybe this is a different game and you’re down one nothing. The Devon Taves one at the end of the game when it was over anyway, I don’t really care about like is that a dumb penalty? Yes. But is the game also over? Yes. Like who cares? I see uh somebody in the Toyota chat. Tough to win a Vzna when you have amazing goalie play, which is fair. Yeah, I don’t I don’t see the ABS winning the VZNa. AJ talked about it on one of our mini pods the other week. Pretty good chance they win the Jennings as a tandem for the best goalie tandem save percentage. Be tough to even Who would you even say against them right now? Uh no one. Yeah, I’d have to look at Gustiffson’s numbers in Minnesota, I guess, cuz Walstead has been really really good. Um, but that might be the only one that’s that’s really all that competitive. I Seattle has really good goalending numbers, too. Um, Gurbau’s actually been decent this year and Decord has been pretty good. Yeah, he’s been a rough couple of years for him. Uh, but I the ABS are in first in that regard when it comes to their their tandem. I know we talked about Blackwood a little bit, but his save percentage continues to go up. uh a very good night for him even if it’s not like amazing because he just didn’t have to face that many shots but gets himself over that 900 hump ends up with a 913. Uh well maybe it didn’t go up. I thought it might have been up to higher than I thought. Anyway, still a good night for Blackwood which his numbers are very encouraging right now. Yeah. And and a night like tonight where you go, yeah, that’s totally sustainable, too. You’re not getting ridiculous shutouts and and things like that. Um, who else did I want to talk about? Devontaves. Taves has been weird this year. In what sense? It’s just been a little bit off at times offensively. Not that his production is horrible or anything and like a bit funny that his goal is essentially an own goal for Montreal is is why he gets credited for a goal instead of an assist. But you’re finding a rhythm, I think, finally for that top pairing. Mhm. In a way that hasn’t fully clicked at times this year. Not that Kevin came across the best defensive man in the league. He’s doing just fine, but Taves, it felt like the fit hadn’t quite connected and it’s starting to get better in the offensive zone for Devonte. What do you think has led to the wonkiness? Um, I think it’s just Taves hasn’t been good enough to be honest with you. Hasn’t played his best hockey. Yeah, we talked AJ talked about this a little bit the other night. I We put a clip out that it’s like, yeah, Devontaves’s offense is starting to become an issue and he scores tonight. So, you’re welcome. Sometimes you just got to talk a little [ __ ] Yeah, exactly. Uh, but you’re looking at a guy who absolutely is capable on the offensive end of bringing you a little bit more. And when you can get I I think a guy like Taves very much thrives in consistency. When he knows what he’s getting every night, when he’s doing his details every single night, that’s when you start to get the best out of the guy. So hopefully this is a step for him into getting into that rhythm and going the right direction. Um, is there something to be said too about a guy maybe getting I don’t think complacent is the right word on the offensive end, but just when you have so much offensive firepower on the ice at all times with you, not necessarily I don’t know if it’s always his biggest priority, I guess, is what I’m saying. Yeah, some true for sure. Uh, I think the ABS defensive scheme requires too much activation for him to fully fall asleep. But yeah, when he’s out there and he goes, “Oh, that’s Kale Mar passing to Nathan McKinnon, passing to Marty Nous. I’ll just stand over here and watch make sure nothing bad happens.” Yeah. Right. Exactly. So, some of that some of that is Taves needs to be better on on himself uh on our quest to try and find something negative to talk about today. it. There’s just so very little. Um, what else we got that I really wanted to get into? There was one other thing that I’m now blanking on. Well, while I think about it, let’s hit the super chats. How about that? Let’s do it. We have three super chats. One from Pin King for $2 that says, “Ever.” No, we don’t want any fatalities. No. No. $2 from DJ who says, “Vote on winner shot. No Jagger until frosted tips.” No. I’m going to drink whatever I want to drink. Didn’t you guys learn you never win when you lean into pure pressure? You guys can’t trick me into this. All right. I never should have even made a bet that I would bleach my hair with you. Now you guys are trying to take a mile. Getting greedy. Yeah, you guys AB’s got to earn it. All right. Keep throwing out suggestions. We’ll break them. You got If the ABS keep winning, we’ll come up with something else. They already said if they keep the point streak to Christmas, uh, I’ll dye the hair still. Like, that’s not going to happen. They’re not going to keep a point streak for another 50. I would agree to that, but uh, I’ve got engagement photos to take. That would be brutal. That would be brutal. I think I might get my ass whooped by the fiance if I do that. Well, that one’s not going to f fly. And then $5 from the walrus who says, “Make sure you own Gabe in your fantasy league, guys. He’s finally back. Hashgabe owner.” Sound advice. You really gota like I’ve been around on the internet enough walrus I know how to pronounce the B there. I saw what you were trying to do. Gabe owner get me out of here. Get me out of here with this guy. Uh he has been so fun though. Like I know we’re we’re in the gutter at this point, but totally he has most certainly exceeded expectations from what you could have realistically hoped for like at this time last year when the murmurss of, you know, he’s potentially back at some point down the line. For him to be this at this stage of the process, I think it’s pretty incredible. It’s awesome. I it’s part of the reason that like stories like McKinnon leading the NHL kind of fall to the wayside is cuz if Landy wins another cup that is the single-handed like the coolest storyline of my sports fandom like I right now it’s maybe like I still have like a soft spot for Rocktober. I just thought that was so fun. But like the the craziness of it, the absurdity of missing three full years and coming back and maybe Yeah. He’s not 2020, let alone being good. Even being in the conversation of that is insane. Dude had to learn how to walk again twice. Yeah. It’s it’s almost unfathomable to like forget having a normal life or or whatever. Just being able to be a functional person, let alone an elite hockey player. I still want to lose track of that. Like I I know everybody that’s listening at this point, they are very familiar with the story. They know all the details. It’s it’s nothing new to them. But but that’s just not normal. And for this team to be playing and buying around that storyline, it’s just it’s cool. It’s it’s sports movieesque. There’s very little about this team that’s normal, right? Yeah. Teams have been this good before, but they haven’t had the underlyings that the ABS have. They haven’t had the indicators that so much of this is sustainable for the ABS. They haven’t had a player like Nathan McKinnon on the peak. When you actually go look at some of the best runs of of best regular season stretches for teams, those are really good teams, but they lack a true call Nathan McKinnon, whatever you want, superstar, top player, elite, whatever. They lack that guy. All of the above. And then, oh yeah, Kale Mar exists who might just be the best all-around hockey player in the world. Like go to nhl.com and just like start sorting hockey players by statistics. It’s a lot of abs. How many of them have an a at the top like it’s so many unless you’re like searching by penalty minutes or something. There’s an in I’ve said it for a couple weeks now. There’s just there’s an inevitability to this team because they function at such a high level. the skill level is so high and they play well off of each other which it’s just what what Chris McFarland and and the rest of the staff have been able to do and and constructing this roster and and really solving some some tough issu I mean it’s not easy to solve your goalending issue and the 2C when you’re trying to pay some of the top players in the world that’s not an easy fix. Nope. And what they’ve been able to do with this roster is is incredible. Disgusting. Frankly, it’s an embarrassment of Richard. Like, it’s to the point now where we’re like, oh yeah, Nushkin’s about to be back, too. The FS have multiple everyday players not in their lineup and they’re thumping and they’re 110 and two in November. They did not lose in regulation in the month of November as their next. I’m thankful for Colorado Avalanche hockey. Insane. I uh had some drama this week, guys. If you go on my Twitter timeline, I I took some some nonsense from some PR people at CSU who were stoked that I was not paying as much attention to them. Their feelings were hurt. Well, you want to know why I’ve got my mind on this hockey team right now? Because this team is so freaking fun. Um, the ABS in this era ridiculously do have another stretch where they had a 17game point streak. That’s absurd. Yeah. And if they get a point in their next game, they’ll have matched that. And you this doesn’t happen. You’re never going to see this again. Like, yeah, the ABS have this core for the next handful of years and they’re still going to be really, really good as we are headed into overtime. The conversation continues online at ddnvr.com. But you are understand that you’re not going to see this again. Like this is going to be a stretch of regular season hockey that 20 years from now you’re going to be sitting at the DMV bar buying your kid his first beer or whatever and be like, “Back in my day, Nathan McKinnon literally never lost. You don’t get it right. You weren’t there.” Exactly. Like it’s that ridiculous. They’re It’s weird being an Avalanche fan from the beginning of when they moved here. And I know plenty of you in chat are, but plenty of you aren’t. And as a kid, like you don’t know any better cuz I was young back then. But you you you grow up being like, “Yeah, the ABS were just the best team in the world and this is crazy and normal.” There’s like one stretch when I was in high school where they struggled and then it leads to getting Nathan McKinnon and it’s been a lot of fun since then. And and we get to sit here and say this core, they still have to win another cup. Yah blah blah blah blah. This core might generally genuinely be better than a core of Joe Sack and Peter Forsber. Like team with four or five Hall of Famers on it, right? Like live it up, man. Live it up right now cuz it’s good. Enjoy the ride, y’all. Enjoy the ride. This has been incredible. I’m having a blast. I know you guys are too. Soak it up. This is fun. If you can’t enjoy this, don’t be a sports fan. All right, we’re wrapping this thing up. We appreciate y’all hanging out for this one.
