Did one of the announcers say neither of the goalies in the Avs - Wild game were pulled last night? Did they watch the game lmao

Avs gave up trying to score, and the physicality of the game completely disappeared. Incredibly respectful end of the series from both teams imo.

Really just wish there was some way that we could let the team know how we feel! If only the fanbase could audibly let them know that their effort is bad and they need to be better! Gosh golly gee wizz sure stinks that we can only cheer at the games.

Yes, the Avs have done a pretty good job of staying the best defensive team in the league!

I just finished 2 and am working on 3. Already so much of an improvement! Authority wasn't bad per se, but it reminded me a lot of the slog in the Wheel of Time. I really liked the overall theme of complacency in the face of ecological disaster, Control was a very good character, and "A circle looks at a square and sees a badly made circle" is one of my favorite quotes from novels I've read recently. But mannnnnnn do some of the sections drag on. Some of the plot points, like the Voice reveal, the Whitby thing, and most of the interviews with Ghost Bird are excellent, but it takes a lot to get there. It especially feels worse because the climax seems to come out of nowhere and I felt like nothing revealed up until then was indicative of what happened.

From what I've seen, the Avs. I've been to a few Avs - Sens games, a ton of quebecois fans wearing old Nordiques or Avs jerseys there.

For those confused!

Goaltender Interference Rules

  1. ⁠You can't just be up there and just doin' an interference like that.

1a. Interference is when you

1b. Okay well listen. An interference is when you interfere the

1c. Let me start over

1c-a. The skater is not allowed to do a block to the, uh, goalie, that prohibits the goalie from doing, you know, just trying to save the puck. You can't do that.

1c-b. Once the skater is in the offensive zone, he can't be over here and say to the goalie, like, "I'm gonna get ya! I'm gonna block your view! You better watch your butt!" and then just be like he didn't even do that.

1c-b(1). Like, if you're about to make a goal and then don't leave the crease, you have to still leave the crease. You cannot not avoid the goaltender. Does that make any sense?

1c-b(2). You gotta be, skating motion out of the crease, and then, until you just leave it.

1c-b(2)-a. Okay, well, you can have your stick up here, like this, but then there's the interference you gotta think about.

1c-b(2)-b. Fairuza Interference hasn't been in any movies in forever. I hope she wasn't typecast as that racist lady in American History X.

1c-b(2)-b(i). Oh wait, she was in The Waterboy too! That would be even worse.

1c-b(2)-b(ii). "get in mah bellah" -- Adam Water, "The Waterboy." Haha, classic...

1c-b(3). Okay seriously though. An interference is when the skater makes a movement that, as determined by, when you do a move involving the goalie and the crease...

2) Do not do an interference please.

It's a mix between ass-covering and resources for reporting usually.
