Re: Makar Money Bag: Avalanche 2025-2026 season

Great, fucking great. Reading that MacKinnon's movements look labored, and he was held out of practice beforehand, also took some bad hits during this Czech/Canada game.

Fucking hate this tournament. And I hate you all.

Re: 2026 Prolympics


Nate missing from practice today. Seems to be nursing an injury (knee?). He hasn't been great this Olympics and seems to be struggling to find a groove. Hope he can turn it up if he plays in the QF.


He's got 2-3-5 in 3 games, that ain't bad, but I also think Cooper is kinda being stupid using ...

Re: Oshawa Generals to their fans: You Stink!

I mean, I've gone to Lincoln Stars games, I don't recall smelling the players, and that rink is small with some of the worst ventilation possible. I didn't really think the people around me carried a stench either.

The floor is always sticky as fuck though.

Re: Colorado Avalanche Prospects Thread

Not a prospect obviously but Jacob MacDonald, who led the AHL in scoring by a defenseman (31 goals!) last season, the same time Cale Makar was leading the league in NHL defensemen scoring (30 goals!) just got put on waivers, hasn't played a single game after undergoing offseason surgery. Looks like ...

Re: 2026 Prolympics

French defenseman Pierre Crinon suspended by his own organization for the remainder of the Olympics. It was a dirty hit he put on MacKinnon, and he apologized for it afterward but MacKinnon said he still wasn't okay with it. Then Crinon got into a bout with Tom Wilson afterward, I guess he was also ...

Yeah, helps when he gets McDavid and Crosby to set him up!

Also helps when he goes to the net and doesn’t just sit there in the Ovechkin spot waiting for a perfect pass.

My God, some absolute SHIT performances by NHL goalies so far. Filip Gustavsson nearly blows it for the Swedes against Italy (look I get they're the host nation but COME ON) letting in two goals on four shots, while the guy on the other end initially let in two goals on 28 shots!

Re: 2026 Prolympics


Most rinks have pretty good programs to encourage new curlers to join. It would typically be one night a week, you and your wife would join a mixed league and hopefully be paired with an experienced couple who introduce novices to the game every season. Its a really social, laid back sport.

Re: 2026 Prolympics

Haven't watched a single short track race, I'm assuming we have no one favored to win any of the events so they've effectively shelved it for prime time.

I'm hearing about lots of crashes though, and shitty ice. Hope that ain't the case for that stupid hockey rink they put together last minute.

Ohhhhh shit. Slovaks up 3-1 on the Finns. Saros did not bring his best stuff, getting outplayed by a below-average AHL goalie.

Somewhere, Barry Trotz is not regretting his decision to quit.

Re: 2026 Prolympics

Technically the Avs have the worst (yes, WORST) power play in the league. If Nate and Cale can't score a goddamned goal alongside Crosby, McDavid, and Reinhart, they should never be allowed on the man advantage ever again.
