lol that shootout

 

[Red_Man]

Halmo, pls. The worst.

Burst out laughing at his attempt, I've never even heard of him before.

 

[Fata1moose]

Altitude letting me know that Varly has sharp skates, thanks dudes.

Hey, sharp skates are a curse sometimes.

 

[T.M. MacReady]

DAMMIT.

If anyone needs me I'll be in the angrydome.

 

[Razorskin]

Took long enough

 

[trifelife]

On another note, given how often Sestito fights, he should really be better at it.

Dude usually holds his own just fine, dunno what you've been watching. He one-punched another man while he was jerseyed. Jerseyed!

Our saviour, Top Sixtito.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Lightning vs. Habs a virtual lock now.

 

[T.M. MacReady]

Burst out laughing at his attempt, I've never even heard of him before.

He's one of the guys Howie Rose has been calling the "Bridgeport 10". Some of them are younguns showing potential like Anders Lee and Ryan Strome. Others are guys like Halmo who are just happy to be here.

He's not that bad, just that attempt was.

 

[Smiley90]

Took long enough

:lol

 

[HadesGigas]

lol Buffalo playing John Scott on a line with Ennis and Stafford. This is what it has come to.

 

[Mr.Green]

Hey man, you got that pick! Could be the next Alexandre Daigle!

They have Stanley Cups on them, not surprised you don't recognize it.

 

[T.M. MacReady]

On a lighter note, have you guys seen Bane Cat yet?

I'm a dog person, but this is hilarious. Worth your click.

 

[Chris R]

Wait, the Avs GIVE away the Jerseys to random fans?

Whenever my ECHL team does something like that it is a auction post game with the prized jerseys raising like $5,000 for charity. The lowest ones even go for $500+

See you on the other side

I've heard of all their other young guys, but not Halmo, his attempt fits his name.

 

[Chris R]

I knew that was coming :|

Avs have had better 3rds lately though, so maybe we still win this.

 

[Fata1moose]

4th line is out and they can't get the puck out of the zone, not surprised.

Reporter asked Price what he said to PK when he was hugging him, his response:

I was saying to PK 'Get off me.' I had no idea where puck was & wasn't in the mood for spooning at that point

:lol

So what team should I back in the playoffs this year?

My favorite player has always been Tkachuk, should I pull for the Coyotes & Blues?

Rangers need not apply. Win me over, playoffs-Gaf.

Cheering for legendary and fan favourite Islander Thomas Vanek should be the obvious choice.

Didn't score but that was finally a PP to not be ashamed of.

I fucking love Barrie. Hope he can keep getting better.

Elliott is now completely expendable, I thought he'd be the one to step up after trading Captain Kirk.

Averaging 4+ goals a game over these past 8 games or so, obviously playing above their SH% but they have so much depth right now, and with Gorges back for the playoffs the D will look much better along with Weaver. Really awesome to see them winning in a lot of different ways though, bodes well for playoff hockey, they seem much more prepared than last year.

The depth is a big change from past seasons. We lost an entire fourth line, and the one we're dressing now is just as good or better. I know it's only a fourth line, but they're good defensively, and provide some good forechecking. Having guys like Briere and Gionta on a third line is great too.

 

[Smiley90]

I'm going to Philly next December.

... How cold is Philly in December? :/

7 more games for Patches-DD-Vanek to get their chemistry going even more as well. It would be nice to see the Gally's start scoring, but I'm sure it will come with teams focusing on DD's line. Good stuff a head.

doesn't matter eat a cheese steak and then come on GAF and talk mess about the cheese steak place you didn't eat at 400 page thread

Has AGally lived up to your expectations? I've actually watched a fair amount of Habs games this year and he always shows these flashes of amazing skill but hasn't seemed to put it all together yet.

Edit: damn that was a fun first period. Any Jets bros watching?

 

[Red_Man]

Has AGally lived up to your expectations? I've actually watched a fair amount of Habs games this year and he always shows these flashes of amazing skill but hasn't seemed to put it all together yet.

He's progressed forward but not in huge strides, it's clear he needs to be put at Center and given top offensive responsibilities. He still barely gets any PP time and has been stuck on the anemic third line most of the year. He has 2-3 moments a game where he shows what he can do, he's just not in the position to do it right now. The expectation is to move him to C next year, but we already have DD, Pleks, Eller, Briere, Prust, White, etc..... I don't know how Bergevin is going to handle it.

Edit: Biggest thing is moving him to C, he's not a winger at all, and isn't great along the boards. He needs to be in the middle to utilize his awesome vision and passing skills, but Therrien's coaching is once again fucking with our youth.

Watch out for all the homeless people on alleys streets.

 

[Acid08]

Well his potential skill ceiling is higher than any of those players right? Can't shelter him too much longer behind those guys, he deserves his chance while players like Eller are faltering.
