Avs Really Are This Bad?!?!

Kinda surprised actually. Ducks with a much better performance behind the net and scoring when have the few chances. 

I've watched 2 games with the Av's. When you're giving up 5,6, or 7 goals every game, you need to look at the coach, defense, and goalie. This team is a couple of years removed from winning the cup. Still have some of the same pieces. Hard to believe they're 0-4 and maybe 0-5 after tonight.

Such an Avs thing to do too. Claw all the way back after being down 2 rip for Cale Maker with a penalty the final minutes of the game and up give a game trying goal with 13 seconds to go.

 Huh?

40+ shots on goal and had 2 goals 

scored 1 goal in first 15secs of 2nd period and just barely escape in OT 

giving up game tieing goal with 12secs left 

If Georgiev (FOUR-giev...because he gives up more than 4 goals a game) doesn't get better, then the Avs are sunk this yr. Kahkonen did shit last year and isn't a better replacement. Annunen didn't do much better last night with a .765 save % which is WORSE than Georgiev. 3 BAD goalies on your team...and we knew Georgiev had a bad save % last yr and that was hidden by the offence. Still too early, but their goalies metrics are in the shitter.

It kinda makes sense...  Here's their Injury report:

Nishushkin Out

Landeskog Out

Lehkonen Out

Toews Out

That's 2 of your top 6 and 1 of your top 4 D, and Toews actually plays D.  And Lehkonen is a solid bottom 6 winger.  That's a lot of talent to be missing.  But they do need a goalie upgrade.  Maybe Annunen rounds into a decent Tender, and he looked pretty good last year.  Georgiev is just not an NHL Starting-Caliber Goalie.

They have 0 defense
