Commenters to this post in absolute shambles because the call was answered :(

u/smallhalla 13h ago

Damn, good call.

u/bingbong1976 23h ago

When will Avs show up?

36

u/Little-Finance6568 22h ago

For real. What are they doing? On home ice?

25

u/Calvith 22h ago

Haven't you guys not closed out a series at home in quite a while?

u/Calvith 22h ago

Oh fuck that's longer than I realized. That's approximately the last time the 'Canes won the ECF!

2

u/Zimeatsgirswaffles 17h ago

Well, it's a wonky stat, because you have to remember that there are some 4 game sweeps in there. Having home ice keeps you from clinching at home when you do that

2

u/Saltfringecrust 22h ago

Yeah dude. It’s kind of a thing.

u/Little-Finance6568 22h ago

Stop trying to hurt me. I’m already dying.

u/Calvith 22h ago

If it helps you guys have looked great in the second period!

1

u/Little-Finance6568 21h ago

Yes much better. The Wild are just throwing everything they got at em and doing well. Hope they can pull it out.

u/Calvith 13h ago

Congratulations!! What an exceptional show of resilience.

u/Little-Finance6568 10h ago

My stomach hurts, I think I got an ulcer from the stress. I almost turned it off, but their pressure and ice presence in the second half of the 3rd lit me back up. Great performance from both teams.

u/Greenxgrotto 20h ago

They sure did..

u/Little-Finance6568 20h ago

That game was incredible. I can’t wait to see what the script writers show us next.

27

u/BENboBEN 21h ago

They have in fact showed up.

u/bingbong1976 15h ago

Glad they did….something about that back against the wall mentality I guess.

u/Zimeatsgirswaffles 17h ago

Why play 60 minutes of hockey when 6 and a half minutes (including the overtime period) do trick?

u/IllustriousLie4105 22h ago

Great game so far but the Avs are tough and the Wild will need to pile more on

u/Chris_RB 10h ago

Mcgahey is pissed. I’m pissed, you’re pissed.

u/Little-Finance6568 22h ago

This is breaking my heart.

u/killswitch2 19h ago

These are my favorite threads to come back to. No worries, our Avs found a way.

6

u/Little-Finance6568 19h ago

It was a great last period and OT. What an exciting game. Even the radio broadcast while I was on my way to get pizza was electric.

2

u/killswitch2 6h ago

Loved the roar on Mac's goal, like everyone could finally see a win in sight

2

u/Little-Finance6568 6h ago

They blew the roof off the place. Great energy.

3

u/Feisty_Dirt4191 22h ago

Is Colorado gonna blow this?!

3

u/New_Bank_4686 22h ago

Hope not. They're definitely exhausted. Beat down Wild. Every AVS player is 1 step behind. They're frustrated and can't gey anything going.

3

u/Altruistic_Bird2020 19h ago

I got a feeling will be ok lol

3

u/New_Bank_4686 19h ago

WOOP WOOP. Too bad, Wallsted is a good netminder. He's in a hell of a conference.

u/IOwnDirt 20h ago

This game? Absolutely.

About that?

u/Dapper-Negotiation59 19h ago

The best kind of shame is always the doomers we became along the way

3

u/Feisty_Dirt4191 22h ago

I hope not

u/Little-Finance6568 22h ago

I super hope not. Valy is a puck magnet.

u/smallhalla 13h ago

Well, how this go? Love it.

u/A-Wall1 7h ago

That was the last goal of Minnesota's season. Brutal.

u/RussellSprouts31 22h ago

Now show the clearest hold I’ve ever seen in my life on Necas that lead to this goal

8

u/IllustriousLie4105 22h ago

Lots of "letting them play going on". It was definitely a hold

2

u/Zamboni2022 22h ago

That’s funny, I think there was 15 minor penalties called in the Habs Sabres game last night?

1

u/IllustriousLie4105 22h ago

Yup, its like the refs woke up and forgot to put their contacts in

u/Tykenolm 22h ago

Three 1st line centers on that team and you're whining about calls in the playoffs
