GDT: 10/28/2022 Avalanche @ Devils Please No Washington Part Deux Kind of Game


Colorado Rockies 1976

I suspect the Avs are a little surprised at how tough the Devils have been to play against tonight.  This has been a very encouraging effort.

I challenge anyone to tell me one net-positive thing Tomas Tatar, Brendan Smith or Jesper Boqvist provide to this team.

Not accepting this challenge.

Boquist is still young and can take draws apparently. I do think there might be more development there. Maybe not a top line player, but he's not going to bring back much in a trade anyway and he'd probably get claimed. He deserves a shot this year at some point. 

Tatar is at a 67.6% Corsi for. He's making the effort out there and he's shooting the puck. Would I have him over Holtz or Zetterlund? Probably not

They are fine. Smith....I get it, but he should simply be a 7th dman.

If we could give Boqvist’s skating to Holtz…

Boqvist was in every sense of the word a worse skater than Holtz is now 2 years ago. He put in the work.

Holtz is putting in the work in the off-season. It’ll pay off eventually. The guy wants to be great and I think he will.

They're really tempting fate with all the penalties.

Yes, how the fvck we have gotten away with it so far is a miracle.

Hope so, that would be nice.

This is why Severson will never be on winning teams. Took all our momentum and sh!t right on it like usually does.

Tough penalty to take. He’s swatting at the puck, it’s not his job to make sure someone isn’t playing baseball with it. 

I’ve always thought that if you try to play the puck with your hand, slashing shouldn’t be called.
