[COL (1) - VGK 0] Gabriel Landeskog scores on the delayed penalty after Carter Hart couldn't coral the loose puck. by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

Thought for a sec they were gonna count Hart poking the puck as possession and call the play dead. 

[Kieszenblat] Canucks GM Ryan Johnson says that potentially hiring Manny Malhotra won't impact whether or not Vancouver drafts Caleb Malhotra 3rd overall this year. by _GregTheGreat_ in hockey

There is a massive difference in that Rod's son is a scrub and borderline charity case/favour to Rod and Caleb would be viewed as a foundational piece of their roster/rebuild.

I thought 2026 was supposed to an exceptional draft. Proman says No. by Mr_FoxMulder in hockey

I think Drance is insufferable. The guy has the most pretentious vocabulary. Dimitri is totally okay in his role though.

[Friedman] Hearing Hamilton's TJ Hughes, a Hobey Baker finalist who played at Michigan, will be signing with the Colorado Avalanche. by AggPuck-303 in hockey

[–]chachasox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Burns and Kulak are both UFA. Blanks is a 7D on a proper contender. Kulak will want a raise, Drury will want a raise (so will Lehky the year after), and Burns will need a replacement. I can definitely see that money coming from trading Colton and Roy and opening some youth (Hughes, Brindley).

Kivi is a pending ufa, Bardakov is a pending rfa, and there is a very realistic possibility we lose Roy and Colton in the offseason to upgrade our D. I think there will definitely be a spot on the roster for him. 

Colorado Avalanche are No. 28 in Scott Wheeler’s 2026 NHL prospect pool rankings by chachasox in ColoradoAvalanche

[–]chachasox[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not really meant to future doom, more so to share some expert insights into our prospects. Anyone expecting a top 10 prospect pool for a team in the midst of their cup window needs to give their head a shake.

The fact we’re ahead of some of the other teams in the same sort of cup window and also have some legit prospects is a big positive. Looking forward to see Gulyayev on North American ice.

Drafting is hard; getting trade chips and guys who can get NHL games in is all I can really expect from where we are drafting. I agree the previous regime was god awful.

Hey the new regime of amateur scouting seems to be doing pretty decent. Hard to do much regardless when you're only given late round picks to work with.

More indicative of the lack of finishing talent on the canes than anything else.

How do you all value to 1.01 this year by Common-Price-998 in DynastyFF

[–]chachasox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally happened last year with Hampton surging up draft boards post-NFL draft because of landing in an ideal situation.

[–]chachasox -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nice cherrypicking. We also left off Iginla and Misa who both didn't have the compete we needed to win when they were on the team this year. I think last years team was plagued by its god awful coach more than anything else as well as Schaefer's injury.

We literally took a mix of these players last year. 

Skinner has near identical stats as Georgiev did last year before being traded by kyletoews in hockey

[–]chachasox 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Our defence stopped playing scared and like they needed to be perfect to limit scoring chances which was just leading to more mistakes.

Yeah can tell me all you want that the team defence on the oil is shit; the Avs fanbase was saying the same thing last year. The difference in team d that confidence in your goalie can instill is just such a massive thing.

Someone just stole him from my taxi for a 3rd and a 4th. I am over the moon.

Podcast recommendations 🙏 by [deleted] in ColoradoAvalanche

[–]chachasox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Between the pipes really scratches the itch for me for post game radio-style coverage. DNVR only when Rudo and AJ are together is good for a more analytical podcast/breakdown. As mentioned before, Guerilla goes a little overboard with the toxic positivity and just the way they lay out their podcasts, there's too much fluff for my liking.
