My latest for Mile High Sticking is all about Wedgie and the value of goaltending depth. Drilling down on the numbers even I was surprised. #GoAvsGo

Stability in net the key to hot start for Colorado Avalanche

The Colorado Avalanche are setting the pace in the Central Division behind stellar play from backup goalie Scott Wedgewood.

Both Avs games I missed live I at least got to watch recorded.. they were both wins.

And strangely, one I missed in Oct 2023 to see Ratboys was against Carolina. Avs won 6-4 and I remember LOC scored a shorty.

Burns scored once for the Canes too.

Going to Denver today to see Wednesday tomorrow night.

Gonna have to miss seeing the Nuggs opener for the first time in 13 years. Feels weird.

Also might miss the debut of those Nordiques throwbacks.

I’ve missed only 2 Avs games in the past 3 seasons and they were both for concerts.

The episode photo from Guys Pod this week is too much.

Why. On. Earth.

You see these dudes drive around in their trucks plastered with his face, slogans and whatever. As lame as it is I can sorta see how it’s a thing they do.

But on an arcade cabinet for Punch Out that sits in your house?

At least the Avalanche didn’t lose 5-1 tonight. That would’ve been objectively a lot worse.

Buchigross remains the absolute worst though man.

He let the ‘we’ slip at least three times in reference to Utah and loses his mind on every Mammoth zone entry. It’s like getting forced to watch a homer broadcast — but the guy is somehow less professional than that.

Woof. A bad OT there.

To be real though Colorado did well for themselves stealing a point tonight. A boatload of bad turnovers and their worst puck management on the young season. Take the point and get revenge next time. #GoAvsGo

Avalanche fall behind 2-1 in an extremely annoying middle 20. But they are still just one shot away from shifting momentum again. We might see Angry Nate here #GoAvsGo

God that was the longest ‘interview’ ever. ESPN hockey coverage continues to be dog doo.

The Annotated Fan @poormonger.bsky.social · 1d

I hate that explanation. Oh we, felt that your players existence caused the other guy to mess up so no goal.

They rule it offside and we go back to the one goal lead. Gotta shake off the disappointment and get back at it #GoAvsGo

Landy goal under review. Could go either way but you know the boys want this for their captain. #GoAvsGo

The Annotated Fan @poormonger.bsky.social · 1d

Colorado leads after one. Nate looks determined tonight. Would love to see the top line get on the board here in the second. #GoAvsGo

Makar finds the back of the net early and Colorado is up 1-0! Bardakov gets his first NHL point on the assist ! #GoAvsGo

I really liked the novel but the film never seems to be streaming anywhere. Noticed it popped up on Tubi the other day.

The Avs are trying to stay hot tonight in the late game against Utah.

Avs win - Under The Skin

Avs lose - Under The Silver Lake

This was also another movie with very graphic mouth trauma. Even more upsetting than the examples from The Substance. I did not know it was such a thing for me and all the sudden it’s everywhere.

Finally watched Bring Her Back last night.

Some people have called it the Feel Bad Movie of the Year. They were pretty spot on….

CB extended just be for the season starts??! LFG.

Front office is on fire man. I try not to get too crazy about ‘ offseason winners ‘ talk but it sure does feel like the Nuggets are doing so many things right already. Crushed free agency and now took care of Braun’s deal #MileHighBasketball

He’s about to be on Fox News labeled as a victim of far left violence watch.

Far left as his own left foot. Old man talked trash and got so immediately scared he probably gave himself a concussion.

Broncos going for 4 in a row today against the Giants! Don’t get the game, so it’s most likely a checking the ticker every three minutes kind of afternoon.

Broncos win - Happy Together

Broncos lose - Banned Together

Avalanche still rolling! Nate wouldn’t be denied and the D and Wedgewood locked it down again after the early goal. That’s a good sign. #GoAvsGo
