RECAP
A 3-1 victory over the Stars, Forsberg paired on a new line with Stastny and Bruno, a trio that scored a nifty deflection goal on the power play. Looks like the Avs are finally clicking *knockonwood* on the man-advantage.
Not sure if Foote played or not, very impressed though so far with the play of Ruslan Salei. The guy has more offensive upside than I realized (think Pavel Kubina but without the bad defense) and has been a force on the defensive side of things.
Keep it up guys! 6 straight! |

Hey! What's wrong w- Kubina!?
I still think this Forsberg signing was silly ... unless they're hardly paying him?
He's out with a broken groin now! _________________

It's one of those infamous "pro-rated" deals, so in effect they're not paying him much.
It's a miracle he lasted this long. And it's obvious without him, Smyth, or Svatos the Avs' offense is pretty sorry. |

And now he's hurt himself again..........see I tell you it was an attendance deal and a ploy to sucker in ignorant season ticket holders. _________________ "Don't think (Stay)

While I agree with you to a point that it was more a cosmetic move than anything, it was worth the risk, especially in light of the injuries to Smyth and Svatos. And quite frankly, the Avs HAD to do something, the product they had was mediocre at best.
So now we have injuries to Forsberg, Foote, Salei, Leopold, Smyth, and Svatos. Fuckin' A what'd we do to deserve Kings-like karma? |
