    Whelp I was focusing on the game but it’s passing me off too much now. Gonna focus more on liberation and democracy for super earth. At least some things are in my control

  2. BigMACfive

    Another truly awful call by these refs. I talked a lot of shit, but I genuinely think they might have been paid off now. This shit is wild.

  3. Hook, slash, hook, hook. Lazy stick penalties killing us.

  4. kissingwookiees

    Mackinnons out there in the Ovi scoring box. Get ‘im!

  5. Enginemancer

    Avs fans care more about acting edgy in opposing teams threads than actually watching hockey. Bunch of fairweather 4chan neckbeards

  6. Competitive_Papaya_8

    Almost beat the fuck out of this Avs fan sitting in front of me. Had to leave early so I don’t go to jail. Just your typical influencer type kid running his mouth. Go Preds!

  7. keybored_with_no_ehs

    2 more dives this possession lol

  8. Prancinghell

    I’m I the only seeing the avs players dive

  9. MegaMemoryZook

    Anybody else see those dives in front of the net whenever they get tapped?

  10. cca73127

    Oilers fan here. The refs are effing you, so shit to see them killing a game you should be winning. Sorry.

  11. ttvsArEtrash

    hearing these avs fans yell and cry after clean hits and hockey plays is more aggravating then the score

  12. kissingwookiees

    I will say I’m a little tired of our inability to capitalize on rebounds 😭 its been an ongoing problem even when we’ve played our best

  13. Enginemancer

    We might lose this game but if Im the Avs Im really hoping we dont play the Preds in round 1

  14. BigMACfive

    Another trip. No call. Amazing how these refs can call this game with a straight face.

  15. 1047293856

    Yeah fuck this game. Can’t wait till the Avs get knocked out in round 1

  16. SantasScrotum

    On to the next one. Fuck the Avs and fuck their lame ass fans

  17. KarmaPanhandler

    Do we not have any mods? What the fucks is going on with the clown show coming to town?

  18. BigMACfive

    Had a player get taken out in front of net… another no call. The league needs to investigate these refs fr. This has been an incredibly flagrant display of biased refereeing.

  19. Enginemancer

    Sucks losing another one to the Zebras, sucks even more that Avs fans felt they needed to come embarrass themselves in our thread all night. Hope we meet you dicks in the playoffs

  20. Square_Dimension5648

    For a team who is one of the best in the league at 5v5 hockey, anyone else think we pull the goalie too early?

  21. kissingwookiees

    well… anyone want to go see a popular 80s irish rock band in concert next week?

  22. Alteredecho07

    It’s going to be hilarious when dallas destroys the avs. They’re banged up and soft as shit, hoping the refs carry them to victory like today. MacKinnon or not, dallas is going to absolutely feast on them

  23. The_Stank__

    Not our night guys. Let’s take it out on the bruins. I hear they’re really good at losing in OT.

  24. MylanMenace

    It’s not really the losing the last two games that fucks me up as much as the thinking we were gonna win for a good portion of each of them

  25. BigMACfive

    Oh so NOW they decide to call penalties on Col again… just in time for it to not matter anymore. Fucking paid off pieces of shit.

  26. mtbr1997

    Very cool how the Avs backup actually saves the puck. If only Lankinen knew how to do that.

  27. kissingwookiees

    idk i think these tough loses wrt the last 2 games can be a net positive if it lights a new fire under the boys… we didn’t go down terribly in either game, we mostly just need to clean up our play.

  28. Live_Move_4831

    Just not a game we were meant to win. Hoping this fires us up for a good, clean, winning game Tuesday

  29. FrankFnRizzo

    I was kinda indifferent to Avs fans before tonight. If tonight’s experience is any indication they’re seriously whiny fucking chodes. McDonough is one of the least penalized players on a team that commits almost the same number of penalties as Colorado thus far. Guess they’re still salty about that absolute demolition in Nashville a few weeks ago 🤷‍♂️

    Kindly fuck off

  30. FrankFnRizzo

    And allowing 19 fucking goals in 3 games is not ideal. Really hope this isn’t a sign of things to come.

  31. DrSquirrelbrain

    Honest question because I get confused a bit about the process. With the remaining games left, at the level we are at as wildcard are we safe to get into the playoffs or can more losses fuck us up and cause us to lose our spot in?
