I think he has amazing work ethic when it comes too fitness etc. But he's a professed "quiet guy" in the locker room. And when we fall behind he gets pouty. I think its more then time enough for a fresh voice in the locker room. Preferably a proven winner who knows what it takes. Believe were already paying another guy 5 or 6 mil that fits that bill.

He ranked first for the Avalanche in individual expected goals created, per Natural Stat Trick, and wasn’t fazed by the Blues’ physical play. He led Colorado with five hits without taking one. Early in the third, with the score deadlocked at one, Rantanen found him in the slot for a one-timer, and he whipped it past Binnington to break the tie. “Let’s go,” he said to Rantanen and Ryan Graves as they skated toward him for a post-goal hug.

This is a great series to watch so far. The Avalanche are scary. They are fast and they have some size. Binnington has kept the Blues in it.

McGuire is driving my crazy again. His exaggerated enthusiasm at 10 all the time, and every time he addresses his colleague he ends the sentence with "Johnny". C'mon man, call the game and not make it about you every second.

Avs with more player movement on one PP than the Flames use in a season.

That's dialing it back for him? He's said his only partners name MINIMUM 50 times this game already. Why? How? So many questions.

Seems like a pretty likely 3rd round matchup.

The Blues are trying to make comeback. Luke Schenn scores a power play goal off a rebound, 3-2 Avalanche with eight minutes remaining in regulation time!
