waitahochiminute 2 Report post Posted October 2, 2009 Was it me or did it look like Duchene and the Avs were skating circles around San Jose lastnight? They looked good... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Theophany 110 Report post Posted October 2, 2009 To be honest, I took that more as SJ sucking, not the Avs being a great team. They're average, IMO, if they keep playing like they did last night. They definitely DID have more fire, though. SJ looked like they had just woken up from a 48 hour nap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kidish 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2009 Anderson (is that right?) was pretty ******* solid in goal. I thought the entire Avs lineup just looked more prepared to play. San Jose...they looked teh sux. Heatley can't backcheck worth s***. Their D looked tired. Thornton was just ok, but he can't do everything. And their former captain...still clearly leads the team.

k3sparks 1 Report post Posted October 2, 2009 Duschene looks like a good skilled player, but he is only 18 so he has a long way to prove he is going to be a power in the NHL. I think the av's were just a little more pumped for it being sakic night too... anyone remember who we played and the score of Yzerman night? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted October 2, 2009 Duchene looked fantastic! Incredibly quick and found himself with a couple of real good scoring chances, he actully should've had at least 1. Uses his body well on the PP to screen the puck, got huge potential that's for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Extremely boring game if I recall corectly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
