This Makar kid has got something about him. I predict big things.
Way to go, Burnsie! Yah big Sasquatch!
Makar and MacKinnon are just nuts.
EIGHT MORE YEARS OF THE PARTY CAN I GET A WITNESS
I already bet Makar to win Norris trophy for 2.25 in odds. Thank you for free money
The arena looks empty.
6:58 Hertl 7:49 Burns Let's go Sharks
That's a statement road win, & will give some teams a Halloween scare! Boo from Colorado.
Love that former Shark Burns went to a respectable team like Colorado, hope he gets to lift the cup this year. Can't say the same for Hertl even slightly.
Those Nečas spins… That's something
I would absolutely love to see Colorado win the Stanley Cup this year. They are so talented at every position.
why is vegas dressed in their away white sweaters?
Marinar is still my favourite player.
Colorado hasnt deployed its number one goalie yet this season and are still leading the central.
Knights are getting worse ugh
How can a sober person possibly give away Necas in general … and for Rantanen, no less?
F Colorado.
I can’t stop watching that first goal. It’s not that 99% of defensemen CANT make that pass, it’s that 99% of them wouldn’t have even been looking at that passing lane.
It’s not a typical cross ice one timer, the dude was buried behind multiple players and tbh hardly looked ready for it to be coming. Quickly reacted and punched it home, but got damn Makar’s playmaking ability is just insane.
I’m sure I’m over exaggerating a bit, but I’m just blown away by that goal. First time I saw it I didn’t even see wtf happened it was so quick lol
Also, Burns has so far proven to be a massive pick up for this team. He’s exactly what the Avs needed from a missing hole on the back end. I’m blown away with how well he’s played AND with the minutes he’s playing.
Necas is about to be hart level caliber this season and everyone else is starting to gel.
Last year this team was put together so hastily, they had basically no chemistry. They looked lost playing together against Dallas and STILL almost won. They were just winning games off pure talent. Well, pure talent AND chemistry is when you get a cup winning team..
All 2nd half of last season I was telling people, “if/when they actually get the correct chemistry this team might be world class level”. We’re starting to see it and only seeing them improve throughout the season barring injuries will be a sight to see.
VGK still played decent despite missing Stone who led in assists until his injury, Hill the starting goalie, Hanifin the Starting Dman, and Sissons
Drury to Nelson with another great assist
Awesome job boys-beat a great team on the road AND those cheating ass,Terry Rozier refs…even the hockey gods-lucky ass Marner goal. Now the only team in the NHL WITH ONLY 1 REAL LOSS,& vs a tough schedule. NJ twice,Utah twice,Vegas,Carolina,Dallas,& LA. 4-0-4 in those games-NO REAL LOSSES! 3-1-0 vs mediocre & bad teams. Only loss when Bednar screwed up,& played a worn out Wedgewood. (as I said BEFORE that game- should have started Minor that day)Lost 3-2 in Boston-a game we easily could've been up 3 goals after 10 minutes if not for Swayman. But it's hockey-those games happen to everybody. But glad Bednar did as I said,& startled Wedgewood today. Whatever happens tomorrow in SJ-I didn't want Blackwoods 1st game in 6 months to come in Vegas against that team,& offense. SJ could light him up-they have a lot of good,young, offensive talent,& are capable-especially at home like most young teams.
But they aren't Vegas. And just like NJ should've waited til they got to SJ to start Markstrom for 1st time in a few weeks-made much more sense to start Wedgewood against basically the deepest offense in the NHL. Let Blackwood go tomorrow-I expect some rust,& maybe a regulation loss. But this game was more important. And had I known the refs would bend us over worse than any game I've seen in probably a few yrs-made even more sense to have Wedgewood in there today.6 PPs to 2…& 1 of ours like 12 seconds. 5 on 3 for almost 2 minutes-just ridiculous the calls that team always seems to get at home but not usually THAT 1 sided. But smart to save Blackwood til tomorrow-trying to knock off rust,& play his 1st game in many months. If he is rusty-better chance of outscoring SJ in a goal fest than doing it in Vegas. But most impressive win any team has had this year so far. Doesn't mean a lot big picture but sure was nice to stick it to that punk ass team,& their punk ass fans…& cheating ass refs on Halloween!
