Hopefully we start another winning streak.

Foppa Frossa · 12-30-2011, 12:42 PM

I'm guessing we'll be gettin Giggy with it?

Probably, I would like to see Jiggy play again in Anaheim.

9 of our next 11 games will be on the road, tough stretch.

We have the Kings on Monday, in LA, and then 4 days off until the next game.

I'd imagine Giggy here, Varly in LA.

McNabb said last night during the broadcast that this would be Giggy's first game in Anaheim as a visiting player and that he's been bugging Sacco about playing this game all year.

So I expect Galiardi or Quincey in net.

Freudian · 12-30-2011, 01:07 PM

Why does every game feel like a must win game these days?

Not Galiardi as he is due to be scratched.

This game is gonna be another huge game in my opinion. With the month we have in January, ending 2011 with a bang would be huge for their confidence.

Hopefully Duchene isn't out for too long. I think he has a much bigger impact on our overall play than we realize sometimes.

I'm hoping for 14 our of 22 possiable points on this trip. That should set us up for a nice strong playoff push through Feb/March

Im thinking Porter, and then Porter will get a 63 save shutout and his post game interview he'll say that he's the best goalie of all time and that he deserves the Jack Adams award for his play.

When did Porter say he played great? I completely missed this.

Avs_19 · 12-30-2011, 02:23 PM

Jiggy should definitely be in net for this one. It would really be a dick move to not start him.

Go Avs!

I don't think he did. I think he said "he played great" referring to Pavelec but it kinda sounded like he said "I played great".

It's at 1.50 in this video.

I'm pretty sure he signed with Lake Erie, not the Avs.

Granlund2Pulkkinen* · 12-30-2011, 03:39 PM

The Ducks are my third least favorite team.

I want to see a 15-0 blow out.

Sorry...3-2 SO win.

Goulet17 · 12-30-2011, 04:04 PM

Dater tweets that Duchene is still undergoing tests late this afternoon, so nothing new on that front.

I am expecting the worst on this one, so anything less than a ligament tear may be good news.

Still undergoing tests sounds positive to me. It means they can't immediately tell how bad it is... meaning it's probably not a severe tear or strain. Those are usually easily diagnosed.

Either that or it's one of those things that nobody's ever seen before and it turns out he's pregnant with a cancerous bear cub. The incubating fetus was awakened by the hit and is clawing its way out through his knee.
