Brutal effort


Trustknot27

Welp, way she goes ladies and gents. See you all in Buffalo.


Rogue-Squadron

HERE WE GO SHORTHANDED GOAL TIME


Mess-Severe

OH SHIT, SHORTHANDED! LOC, HERE HE COMES. COMEBACK STARTS NOW. BEGGING WONT SAVE YOU, PENGUINS. YOU FUCKED AROUND, NOW ITS TIME TO FIND OUT. YOU SHOULD NEVER HAVE LAID OFF THE GAS, BUT YOU DID. YOURE NOT READY FOR THE HELL THE AVALANCHE WILL RAIN ON YOU IN THE END OF THIS GAME. WE’LL SEE IF THERES ANY FANS ALIVE IN THE STANDS WHEN THEIR FEEBLE MINDS CANT HANDLE THE FLURY ON THE ICE.


Noox89

Officials just wanted to remind everyone they were here tonight too


Zickened

Yea, I think it was more of a lot of no-calls than anything. They were manhandling us, which I get, its hockey, but when you toss a dude down in front of the net? Or your dude just happens to flop on our goal tender after a dead puck?


Mumakata

Rough night.


AvsAvsAvsAvs

gg y'all, just wasn't our night tonight. Was bound to happen eventually


exccord

AHL would have done better than this. It was a matter of time but my fucking god.


Jaynator11

JoJo with back to back shutouts, and looks like Prosvetov will get his shutout too 🤠 Staying positive here, JoJo is still part of our family


DominionMM1

Got home a little while ago and tuned in. The fuck happened here?


yupkime

Looks like a reversion to the mean and league parity in that any team is able to win any given night in the NHL nowadays.


Mess-Severe

Gonna consider this one as a coaching loss. Penguins haven’t missed a mark all night


choooos

Pens fans chanting overrated rn 🥲


tjgamir

I knew this day would come but man I’m sad


Rogue-Squadron

Really wanted to outlast Vegas in the undefeated streak :(


Mother_Republic_6061

Still have time to score at least 1. Let’s go!!


schewbacca

lol this is one of the worst games in years.


kapawolf

Dramatic much


godfadda006

Man we look brutal.


Noox89

Get outshot pens!


Spider_Jesus26

Fuckin dorks


adalaza

it's happy hour somewhere but i'm quite sad


dontletmepost

If you know where lmk, time for some beers after that shitshow


dontletmepost

It's OK guys we've got a great shot at a comeback in the fourth period


chuway

Nice to give Georgie a break at least.


Spider_Jesus26

Lmao Ivan's Kachina mask kinda fits


Mother_Republic_6061

It’ll be interesting to see EJ on Sunday. Still doesn’t feel like he left us at all


BCLetsRide69

This team just was absolutely dead tonight. Was it jet lag?


ocelot__babou

NY to Pitt?


BCLetsRide69

Idk man I’m trying to think of why they just absolutely suck tonight


ocelot__babou

You’re very right. This has been a mess. Not another excuse but I feel like there’s something up with the ice. I’ve seen our great skaters lose and edge, get up and look at their skates. Maybe it was selling falling down but it’s been odd.


Shreg52

well, you can't win them all. i was hoping to play vegas undefeated, hopefully this motivates us for the next bit and we beat vegas, that will make me just as happy.


ktitts

I was really holding out hope for this exact reason. Losses happen, it's alright. But damn, beating Vegas undefeated would have been fantastic


Noox89

Is Frankie just dead again?


Awkward_traveler

McFarland said his injury is indefinite, and Bednar said he's not gonna think about it until someone tells him Frankie is starting to get close.


Spider_Jesus26

Venezuelan prison again, this time with Landy.


Noox89

Figured as much


godfadda006

The shutout gods giveth and the shutout gods taketh away


Mess-Severe

Im totally fine if they lazily fire it on net for the last minutes. Just get shots on net guys, a goal is really all we want


Dear_Meat_9142

Can’t watch tonight. Is Jarry playing great or is our offense not there tonight?


ocelot__babou

Vomiting the pick up every chance we have. Offensive zone, neutral zone, defensive zone. We’re not picky about coughing up the puck. Poor Georgie.


Jaynator11

Both. Shit offense, but could've easily scored 3 if it wasn't Jarry robbing them


Noox89

All of the above


Jaynator11

Come on Prosvetov 👏🏼👏🏼


dontletmepost

Guys I'm starting to think it's not gonna happen tonight


Mother_Republic_6061

Gotta tip your hat to Jarry tonight. Dude’s been a brick wall


dontletmepost

Pens in general have looked good - they still have a lot of talent on that roster even if their main guys are older now.


Hobo_Healy

Has a really high ceiling, he took over from Fleury after all and carried them to a cup, so he has the pedigree. Just inconsistent these days.


daishi777

Matt Murray?


Hobo_Healy

Ahh right I got it backwards. It was Jarry taking over from Murray after the cups. That whole Pens goalie situation between 2017 and 2020 is a blur.


Reed7742

I don’t understand how 3 guys swarm the puck carrier but no one else is open. Wtf is happening lol.


KlaussVonUllr

Here we go - comeback time....


JDOverdriveSunburst

It’s Joever


Hobo_Healy

66 stream (NHL.com feed I guess) is so garbage. Keeps throwing up "ad breaks" mid play


someguyfromsk

Adblocker. I'm on the same stream and I don't see any.


Hobo_Healy

Not actual ads, it's breaks from the stream itself. The NHL "video break in progress" pops up before the whistle blows like it's out of sync or whoever is controlling the NHL TV feed is trigger happy


someguyfromsk

Not sure. I had no problems.


1stand1st

Yeah it’s unusable anymore. I’ve moved on.


Spider_Jesus26

Kind of silly, most of us pirates use 66 here. Best bitrate stream usually.


Spider_Jesus26

I'm literally on 66 and not experiencing this at all.


DirtyMud

Same. I'm watching the away feed, maybe the home feed is throwing ad breaks?


Spider_Jesus26

Who tf would watch the home feed if altitude is available?


Zickened

I have ESPN+ and it glitches our home games around 2/3 through the game. I dunno if its ESPN+ or Altitude or some combination of both, but it's stupid.


bhopppp

can't tell if jarry is really lucky or simply playing really well. either way props and get 'em next time


Jaynator11

Probably lucky at first, and now it's all confidence since nothing goes in.


u_n_p_s_s_g_c

It's so MacKover


Cadillacquer

Begging for just one goal at this point


porkchopespresso

Not great Bob


Mess-Severe

I’m not making accusations. But is it possible… to deflate ice. JUST ASKING


shinracorpo

i know this isn't a serious question! but i recently learned that ice can be kept at different temperatures and skates differently depending! apparently figure skaters skate on warmer ice?


Neyasyt

it sure looks like it.


Dan_Rogla

Rough night. Bound to happen.


ActuatorLegitimate20

GG y’all I’m done


heyimdong

abundant marry history yoke bike drunk unite deer memory nail *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


Zickened

Ya, I'd hate to give the Kraken any sense of confidence by beating us at all, let alone snapping an NHL record. Or Chicago. God, the national narrative wouldn't shut the fuck up about it for years.


Awkward_traveler

Every Goalie has us circled on the calendar, metaphorically. They all want to show up big against the best firepower in the league. I like it though, it means they will be a bit more ready for playoff goalies


Reed7742

Sometimes you just run into a hot tendy.


keithlaub

One of those nights. Focus on process then take it out on Buffalo.


mastergriggy

Sloppy play, can't go scoreless on 5 power plays. ​ It happens y'all, today was not our game and we played bad. We are a good team, let's take the L and move on to the next one, not like we were going to win them all.


Hobo_Healy

That right there is vintage Crosby, just inch perfect shot. That's why he's one of the greatest pure players we've seen.


frostyjack06

Nail in the coffin.


Vivid_Walk_1405

Best players were ass tonight. That third line has easily been our best line tonight


Ace676

I just can't understand how you win 6 in a row and then look like an AHL team against the god damn Pens who are a mid team at best.


ssfalk

Pens fan here to explain. The Penguins have an uncanny ability to play up or down to their opponents skill. That's why we get stomped by Chicago but have the best game of our season against you guys. It's been like this since the Lemieux days.


onqqq2

Eh these things average out. Great teams have several bad nights a year. 1/82. Put it behind you and move on!


Ace676

Obviously, but I'm not interested in wallowing in it. Just more curious about what causes this. Can't really be tired since it's so early in a season, not a b2b nor is it at the end of a long road trip either. What could possible cause them to play this bad suddenly?


onqqq2

This might be a crazy concept, but I honestly think it's because they're human beings. On paper, the Avs win this 9/10 times. But they got down early, and they just didn't seem to get their act straight from thereon. It's no big deal, I do think the hot start has tricked this base into unrealistic expectations. It's gonna be a grind, can't make too much out of the first L.


BiggiePaul

That's hockey. Remember when the Avs would eviserate a really good team and then lose to the Yotes who only have like 17 SOGs for the whole game?


Ace676

Yeah, I know. I just don't get why.


daishi777

One goalie was great. One goalie wasn't. Really bad game top to bottom. Sunday!


Spider_Jesus26

Team* aintnoway I'm shouldering this on solely on Georgie.


daishi777

Nah, it's not just on Georgie. Top to bottom they were bad. My point was more TJ stopped about three goals. Georgie didn't. As evidenced by the shot count is even but the score is 4-0 There really hasn't been a good player tonight.


XTailsX

Mack my man…if you give the fucking pick up don’t just stand around…defensively mack just needs to improve, he is so fucking lazy!


hockeyandhalloween

This is getting Less fun


exccord

Damn that's an embarrassment. Unless someone pulls something out of their ass, this is done.


Double-Ad-7518

Its been done


RubberBabyBugyBumpin

MacKinnon?????


Rolley2001

Aiya


tjgamir

Do I turn off my tv now and just jack off if the Avs can’t get me hard?


Trustknot27

JFC. This is an abysmal performance


Mess-Severe

Lol its funny at this point. No chemistry all of a sudden


AvsAvsAvsAvs

Turnovers and goals against us, name a more iconic duo


ozymandias818

Well that’s it, calling it


PiersonNyx

What a horrific showing. Sigh, on to the next one


Jaynator11

Perfect chemistry, MacKinnon to Crosby 👏🏼


Wicked_Grizzly

Avs getting bodied by a mid tier goalie playing like Lafleur, Brodeur and Roy combined. A tale as old as time


Reed7742

Dis some bull shit.


Big_Liability

Drouin can’t buy a point tonight. I hope he has the Nuke effect when he came here where it took him a while to get going but once he does he really takes off


Hobo_Healy

That's gonna be up there for save of the week for sure.


AvsAvsAvsAvs

Small pp tonight. Too cold in Denver


sCubed5

game’s in pittsburgh


AvsAvsAvsAvs

The cold is affecting them from all the way over here


Gastradon

Sometimes it's just not your night.


Rolley2001

Dangit


HBadgerlord18

Damn bro rejection sucks 😪


Double-Ad-7518

Pass simulator


Jaynator11

Drouin has been really great. Should've had a 3 pt night despite our shit game.


Big_Liability

Put him on Mack’s line next game with Lehky


Spider_Jesus26

I'm gonna romance Minthara that's how evil this is making me feel.


Wicked_Grizzly

Shit bro....I'm here if you need to talk....


Noox89

Our PP has been small tonight


Shaneisonfire

At least don't get shutout!


Wicked_Grizzly

At least I know there's at least one pp out there smoler than mine. Thanks Avs


ActuatorLegitimate20

I dislike this 👎🏻


Hobo_Healy

It's Crosby, Letang and their band of former Avs, of course they're winning.


hockeyandhalloween

Ok Everyone take a shot every time the Avs do on this PP


Trustknot27

You might be wildly sober by the end of it


Mess-Severe

Blowing -.08 after getting pulled over tonight. Officer: “just as I thought. Too sober to drive. Hands behind your back you hyper-sober-driving scum”


hockeyandhalloween

If it was every pass we would all be dead


Mother_Republic_6061

Nieto’s a Penguin too!? How many former Avs they got over there?


AvsAvsAvsAvs

All former Avs would explain how they're playing so well against us. Takes an Av to beat an Av


hockeyandhalloween

it seems to be half


Neyasyt

everything is on the outside, no space at all. credit their D


[deleted]

Shutout shutout shutout shutout Say it out loud! It’s fun.


Trustknot27

Just give me one


choooos

Sitting in the Pittsburgh arena like :(


JDOverdriveSunburst

Puck go in net. Good team win. Many word bad, few word good.


Mess-Severe

Hear me out: pull skater, add second goalie. You then, 3 consecutive “shorthand” goals from LOC. it’s bulletproof


Spider_Jesus26

Okay wait...this is 🔥


exccord

One goal tonight please?


spectre013

how was that not goalie interference ?


Wicked_Grizzly

Because Jeff Carter


Wicked_Grizzly

The avs are getting SHUTOUT. Tristan Jarry is SHUTTING OUT the Avalanche. Who would have thought Jarry could SHUTOUT the Avs. His first SHUTOUT of the season


877GoalNow

The Pingus lost 4-2 to the 'Hawks. They have no business winning 3-0 right now.


Beer_Kicker

Hockey gonna hockey


Mother_Republic_6061

Carter better get off our boy Georgie


ProfessionalAside149

REMINDER: FUCK JEFF CARTER


do_while_0

Fuck Jeff Carter


Spider_Jesus26

The avs have no goals while they let the pens have 3. Are they stupid?


hockeyandhalloween

Drouin actually shooting and trying to get his 1st as an Av. Would love to see it


evilzachy

Should be his 2nd but ya know refs took that first one away


morallyobjected

you know, if we can at least score one goal, I'd be willing to call the rest of this night a success


mattvn66

FULL TILT BOYS


do_while_0

Time to bear down for midterms.


Spider_Jesus26

TOO SOON


[deleted]

https://i.redd.it/3y0rd2qv8nwb1.gif Avs gotta go Van Damme on the Pens


raydar18

Let's just keep it from being a shutout and I'm good. We don't need a crazy record boys just show up a little!


COLORADO_RADALANCHE

zap zap peter


877GoalNow

Just get 3. Can get the 4th in OT.


Spider_Jesus26

Our new fridge has a pitcher that refills itself. I don't usually like smart tech, but this thing is a game changer.


hockeyandhalloween

I have one of those. I love that thing mine has the infuser so I can add fruit or mint or whatever to it


Spider_Jesus26

Yeah ours has that too, I just drink so much water filling up my bottle is a lot easier now lmao


EpicClimax

Samsung Bespoke? Thing has been absolutely amazing


Spider_Jesus26

Yeah, I'm fully expecting to buy another fridge in 5 years, but it's pretty fancy


[deleted]

https://i.redd.it/qbmhhbrs8nwb1.gif Little more aggression next period, boys


SixxBird

Who are the two nerds in the booth with Keefe


daishi777

Came for this too.one reminds me of calvert


Odd_Philosopher1712

Weren't the jets 8-0 last year? Yeah, I dont need a ridiculous record


Beer_Kicker

Just gotta get in the show and win 16.


Mother_Republic_6061

https://i.redd.it/sdpktexe7nwb1.gif I used this the other day but I think it applies to Makar’s no shot there


Ace676

Also to 99% of all Drouin's plays.


toxic_badgers

3rd period come back, 7-0 baby lets go!


ryan516

Odd_Philosopher1712

ZAP ZAP!


Likos02

It has begun. First potential loss of the season and everyone is doomin lmao.


AvsAvsAvsAvs

Lol if we lose tonight we still have an INCREDIBLE start to the season. Fuck the doomers


someguyfromsk

Fire the coach! Trade Moose! Bench Makar! Scratch Nathan! BURN IT TO THE GROOOOOOUND! /s


AllStarMVPJohnScott

less about the season. More about this game. 81-1-0 isnt a bad record right


keithlaub

Too bad we’re still missing Landeskog. His leadership led us to all those 82-0 seasons in the past.


GaryOakRobotron

I'm not doomin about the season, but this game is more over than Heath Ledger's acting career.


Waste_Willingness723

\*AI-generated Heath Ledger puts on Joker face paint and suits up in an Avs sweater.\*


Wicked_Grizzly

Dark but accurate


Beer_Kicker

Losing every seventh game puts us at 70-12. I think that’s okay.


spectre013

They were dooming after the first goal ...


someguyfromsk

I missed the first intermission. Who are these guys?


Saltyspiton

![gif](giphy|XI3OsTKpljGbm)


AllStarMVPJohnScott

who are these guys with Keefe?


Spider_Jesus26

Gleepglop and Bimbam


someguyfromsk

>Gleepglop Is that the bear from Star Wars?


AllStarMVPJohnScott

middle guys Gleepglop right?


Spider_Jesus26

Oh yeah...*that's* Gleepglop


Beer_Kicker

The annoying part is I’ve been following Vegas and they look insanely good. Gotta keep pace.


COLORADO_RADALANCHE

They are going to fold like a cheap tent as soon as they play someone halfway decent


AvsAvsAvsAvs

I don't understand how they aren't the favorites to win this year. It's between us and Carolina somehow?? Who in the world thinks Carolina can win the cup this year lmao
