Alflives Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Can Murray still skate? The guy looked shockingly slow in the games I saw. Maybe he was playing hurt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoosh Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Not bad at all. If the Avs had a #1 goalie I’d say they would be my bet to win the cup next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he will just stand in front of his own net, no matter where the puck is on the ice? Maybe it’s guys named Murray, because this guy skates like Douglas.

People have been saying they are a “favorite to win the cup” for 3 or four years now. Not sure why, but they seem to go full leaf mode and choke in the playoffs. Their talent is starting to catch up to their salary cap, so they might plateau sooner rather than later. Wont be able to ride Macks five mill per for very much longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those same guys commit a lot of horrid turnovers, in heavy hockey, in the neutral zone, and give up high danger chances as a result. Without the puck their play really isn’t very good, and that gets exposed in heavy playoff hockey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lmm Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 man what a horrible draft year people complain abut Gaunce, but most of the early first stank and 3 players played more games in the next 15 picks coulda had Skai or Pearson but not much else in the late first early second Tom Wilson might be the best pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTramFan Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Avalanche roster looking much worse than last season. IN: Helm, Maitsev, Matteau, Sherwood, Murray, MacDermid, Kuemper OUT: Donskoi, Saad, Calvert, Soderberg, Bellemare, Graves, Nemeth, Timmins, Grubauer That's a massive drop in the quality of their depth players. They might have enough cap space to sign one more decent forward but such a disappointing off season imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put the pitchforks away. Can’t say definitively that this is a team friendly deal or not until games are played. I’d say the risk is mitigated because of the term and reasonable cost but whose to say this isn’t an overpayment when the player is on the IR or is consistently exposed on the ice.
