Mebbe the Avs are playing so well because they know what Roy will do to them if they lose. Beat them senseless?

It's us Hawks fans that are bandwagoners.

Well that was a dissapointing game last night. Fourth Avs game I have been too in my life but first time they have lost. They just came out so flat in the first period and gave up two and had nothing going for them. I don't feel they really even showed up till 12min mark of the 2nd period and then they dominated but couldn't really get anything to go in. Was hoping this would be an easy win for them since they have a tough schedule coming up for the next seven games. Seven of the next eight games against the Hawks, Blues, and Wild

Started watching them right when they moved to Denver. Not after they one the first cup. My sister used to live out there at the time and I had just started playing hockey and she was sending me Colorado stuff. I lived less than two hours away from Philly but somehow became an Avs fan and have been following them ever since through the good and the bad. 
I have been really hesitant to get excited about them yet though as this is just like our start a few years back when they brought in Sacco. We started good then fell apart but had started so well we managed to slide into the playoffs with the 8th spot.
Based on what I saw last night I hope it was just an off night and not a preview of things to come. They just lacked any physical play. I hope the loss of Downie doesn't mean that all year.

Divisional games FTW. This is where we see just what teams are truly made of. Admittedly, the Western teams have not played each other much and have fattened up on feasting against the Eastern squads.

Kings call up the back-up goalie to the back-up Scrivvvvvenszzzzz.
Quick is sent home from the road trip. That's not a good sign.
Groin or hip flexor perhaps?

2014 STADIUM SERIES CHROME TEAM LOGOS
http://www.nhl.com/ice/gallerylandin...d=nhl:topheads
Hey look! We applied some filters to existing logos in photoshop, now go be a good fan and buy some new merch!
The Brooklyn Islanders logo looks odd without the circle and the island.....perhaps that is a sneak peak at their new logo?

Well, you don't see a bench-clearing brawl in women's hockey everyday...
19 ejections and 303 penalty minutes.

Sutter on Quick:
We don't have a rocket
There's no magic
Sutter wins hands down for NHL coach press quotes.
On whether Quick has gone through any tests at this point:
No. I just said it – he’s flying home to be evaluated by our doctors, and we feel it’s muscle-related. Our trainers would evaluate him. Those would be tests. That would be the normal procedure. We don’t have a rocket that can get him right back to L.A. You know what? You’ve got to leave Buffalo, and you’ve got to get somewhere else to get back to L.A, so it’s not quite as easy as you think. There’s no magic.

^ The best quote still goes to Hartley when he said gluing Roy, Belfour, and Brodeur together and still would not have won.

Hejduk is calling it quits. Guys like him retiring makes me feel old.

"I decided to quit hockey," he told Blesk, a Czech daily newspaper. "I just have to announce it officially. In frame of one month there will be a press conference. And that's it, I'm done. … I wanted to quit after the end of last season. But my agent told me not to be crazy, that maybe some interesting offer would show up. But I realized I did not want to move somewhere else."
The youth hockey season also is underway. Hejduk and his wife live in the Denver area. His sons David and Marek play hockey and Hejduk coaches their peewee team.
"I am on the ice every day," he said. "I train the guys, try to teach them some things. To be honest I can't say I miss [pro] hockey."

Quick had a level 2 groin strain. No surgery needed.
My guess is he will be out 3-4 weeks.
3-4 weeks of Bernier is not that bad....oh wait.
