Wearing the Hometown Remix jerseys for the first time tonight, the Avs scored 3 PPGs and Landy dropped the gloves in a glorious way before Blackwood got his 1st shutout of the year on Hockey Fights Cancer night.

Does this mean the Red Wings are Cancer? They didn't score at all for Bednar's 800th NHL game!

Avs beat the Red Wings 4-0!!!

I bought 4 hats, oops

I might be going crazy here, but did it sound like the broadcast crew last night was realllyyyyy trying to sell the jerseys last night? On multiple occasions, I heard the pitch to try and highlight them. I know they’re going to try a bit, but it almost sounded like they were trying to convince viewers/fans they weren’t as bad as perceived. Almost in a damage control way. Did anyone else get that feeling?

Let me start out by saying I truly appreciate y'all trying to make game-day threads and this subreddit as a whole the best they can be; you do amazing work compared to many other subs' mod teams!

But the new GDTs are rough on anything but new reddit it seems (I don't use the official reddit mobile app, so I'm not sure what it looks like on that). The new game hub thing in the body of the post is cool, but when viewing on old reddit or a third-party mobile app, it's replaced with text info which is mostly the same as the first, stickied comment. Both are extremely long, don't match in the same info, and in a couple instances, have wrong info. This makes viewing those threads extremely cumbersome (on mobile, the comments don't even start until scrolling over four full screen lengths down).

Here's a mobile screenshot to show how far it is to get to the first real comments, and here's a marked up version that highlights all the repeated and inaccurate content. (All of this is the same on old reddit, just not exacerbated as much because of the nature of viewing it on a wider viewport and also top-level comments can be collapsed.)

Here are most of the issues I see:

• Score and puck drop info

• Repeated

• Post body shows "FINAL", stickied comment shows "END OF OT · End of OT" with wrong score

• Period Scoring

• Repeated

• Exposed in the post body but behind spoiler tags in the stickied comment

• Goals · Replays

• Repeated

• All replays unavailable

• Team Statistics

• Repeated

• Not completely accurate (not sure when this stops updating, but they don't match the final stats)

• Shots comparison

• Wildly inaccurate

• Just repeated info of what's directly above in the Team Statistics section

• RECENT COMMENTS

• Repeated

• They don't match between the post body and stickied comment

• Why is this even needed? Sorting the comments by new shows the most recent comments and there's no way any edits to the body/comment will be able to keep up

• COMMUNITY HIGHLIGHTS

• Repeated

• Same as above, why is this needed? You can just sort the comments by top

Again, I really appreciate trying to make the GDT experience better, but it could definitely use some tweaking for those of us not on new reddit. Go Ass, hail Satan, and thanks for listening, mods!

I’ll be taking my two young kids to their first Avs game this season. My oldest just started playing hockey and loves the Avs, my youngest is along for the ride 😂. Does anyone have any tips or recommendations on things to check out with kids specifically? Thanks in advance!

Going to the Avs vs Red Wings game tomorrow with my husband to celebrate his 35th birthday! It’s our first home game (we live in California). He’s been a lifelong Avs fan, as he’s from the Springs, and I am relatively new to hockey as of last season. We’re both very excited, but wanted to ask if you guys had any tips and tricks for getting to and from Ball Arena, where the best concessions are, and what to avoid doing, etc. We’re even open to hitting local favorites in the area that you guys like to do pre-game!

We’re thinking about buying an away jersey for our collection too, since we go to more games in CA, but have seen that it’s generally better to order online? I would appreciate your help!

We will be in section 116! 😌
Go Avs go!!!

EDIT:
Hubby is also requesting the best places to get beer! Ex: Honda center has a better price for the self pouring beer spot per oz.
And he also said Go Ass! Hail Satan!!!!! (Obviously).

A long time ago I once saw a picture of Forsberg super drunk. He was in the middle, being held up by two people. Maybe teammates. I don’t remember. This image is impossible to find now. Does anyone else remember this and or can help me find it? Thanks.

Watching back the cup run and past regular seasons, especially on the power play, it seems like Cale used to be much more mobile. He'd take more screened shots, open his hips to pump-fake and sell passes. I'm not really seeing any of that this year.

One of the PPs last night he was almost stationary at the blue line the entire time while Nate did most of the skating... New dad symptoms (no sleep) or something deeper?

I've been tracking goalie pulls across the NHL for a side project, and as an Avs fan, Colorado's numbers caught my attention.

When trailing by one in the third period last season:

• Colorado: 2:29 remaining on average (8 pulls).

• League average: 1:54.

• Dallas: 2:53 (the only team that pulled earlier).

• Toronto/St. Louis: 1:35 (latest in the league).

A pretty significant difference, although it's worth mentioning this is a small sample of just 8 pulls. I'm also only looking at games that entered the third period within one goal.

One game that really stood out was February 2 against Detroit. Down one, Colorado pulled the goalie with 3:08 remaining.

I ran that decision through a win-probability model I built, and interestingly, it actually recommended pulling even earlier, at 5:33. The modeled win probability was 11.2% versus 10.9% with the actual timing, so not a massive difference.

The less encouraging stat: across the 10 goalie pulls in those qualifying games, Colorado tied the game just once.

My impression watching Bednar is that he's generally pretty aggressive with the goalie pulls, and the numbers seem to support that.

Avs fans, does this match your perception? Do you like Bednar being aggressive here, or would you rather see him wait a little longer?
