![]() The Avs look like a great team. Fantastic speed. Those counting out the Bolts…… even my sparse knowledge of hockey I can see the Bolts can make this a great finals. |

Every once in a while, there's something truly interesting. But yeah, a vast majority of the time it's not really all that notable. |

I don't want to just blame Kuemper - clearly the Bolts were getting far better shots in game 3 than they were in the first two. But...

Interesting... yeah, Kuemper made some huge saves early and it's another one of those games where you define want him to make a couple more saves, but there's blame to go around on the defensive end, too.
It just goes back to whether he can be great if they have to win only scoring a goal or two. |

And attention is a precious commodity. If I ask people to pay me some of their limited attention, I’m not going to get a lot of chances if I keep serving up junk data in return. (And as an aside, there’s a DC lesson for me somewhere in there. I wonder if I’ll pay it any attention?) I guess this is both one of the blessings and curses of living in the Information Age rather than the Meaning Age. |

Makar wins the Norris. It seems like I should care more, but there are bigger goals now...

As uninteresting as the past two games have been (wouldn't necessarily say boring just because of the scores), it really sets up a game 4 where you really have no freakin clue what's going to happen.
Any other teams, I'd say it's likely a full reset to a game 1 style (not this series' game 1) defensive battle, but even when the Avalanche have really focused on helping out Francouz, they still scored 4 goals and had 30+ shots. Strange how it's worked out... after game 1 I wanted 6 more OT games. But then after 7-0 and now wanting to rebound from 6-2, it puts a little pressure to "salvage" a 3 game to 1 lead tonight. And I don’t pay a ton of attention to the talking heads, but they were REALLY trying to make a goalie controversy during game 3, so it would be annoying to have to listen to the same old narratives given another loss.... but hey, at least altitude will be on their side for 2 out of 3 after tonight. ![]() |
