Nice return for Duchene!!! Fine night by EJ as well.
After giving up the tying goal with like :06 to go, nice to get that win!

Got back to Canada in time to see the oilers play the Hawks last night .
Hawks looked tired ... how long have they been on the road ??? Not the real Chicago Blackhawks last night methinks .

4th game of the Circus trip, Derrek, and their second stinker of the trip. McDavid looked good, and Klefbaum, what's up with that?

I'm a beaten down fan. I've always been fairly optimistic for the Avs, but this season has been a disaster. To a man, they are pretty much underachieving.
I do like Bednar, but it appears to be back to the drawing board.

Not sure really how much I put this on Varley. He needs help, meaning needs the boys to find the back of the net. Not to mention the constant mental mistakes that give up the odd man rush or fantastic opportunities.
Both Pickard and Varlamov are doing what they can, but when you're last in the league in goals scored, you're not going to win a lot of games.
Back at it tonight vs Arizona.

I hear you, Neil, I picked up Little for the fantasy team this AM. Jets D sure has the Hawks number so far this season
E.J., please have your boys tire out AZ before Tuesday.

I have no idea if the paper this morning had a misprint or in my early morning stupor, I had no idea what I was reading...but the Avs aren't playing tonight and are not playing Arizona tomorrow.
Came home, ask the Little One, hey, can you throw the Avs game on... She responds, "the Avs don't play tonight." I'm like yea, like 5 or 6(remember reading/thinking, it's on early, you can catch it in progress when you get home.
After a few, "Yea, check altitude channel" she schooled her dad.
Bout right for the season....

I needed a big fantasy night from Bernier, was hoping for a 97 save shutout, and it would have been nice if he had 12 assists and a couple of hat tricks too ... instead he gave up 8 goals

One bad game and he gets dumped. Hopefully Gibson gets that 97 shot shutout tomorrow.

Had a player go out, not IR so I couldn't save his spot, and found someone to pick up that I was looking at.
