Roy wins it!! Kadri and Manimal with the helpers! Colorado takes care of business and earns the 2-0 series lead!! #GoAvsGo

OT in game two thanks to late heroics from Landy.

Why not - already got what amounted to an extra intermission thanks to broken glass. Now we get an official third intermission.

One shot to win. LFG #GoAvsGo

The captain ties it! Tap tap tappy. #GoAvsGo

Another scoreless period. The penalty shot , glass breaking, and soft call on Nate sequence early amped and then killed the flow of the game.

That’s why you never take a cue from Dallas goofs Avs faithful. Glass banging is silly shenanigans.

Avs turned it up late though.

#GoAvsGo

This delay has me reaching for a dang Mountain Dew rather than a beer. Already late and this is going to set us back another 20 minutes or more.

Tried this new Dirty Mountain Dew. I’ve never tried the trend but this tastes like Twinkie soda

A scoreless but chippy first period. Avs are out working them and should break through here soon if that continues. #GoAvsGo

Game Two for Avs / Kings

Theme is an odd one. Movies with single word titles that start with A — that I had to look up the meaning of.

Avs win - Atropia

Avs lose - Atrabilious

The Playoff Assist Playlist Volume 3 starts here! For every Avalanche playoff assist I will share a song I love with the #GoAvsGo community — when it’s all said and done, for however long it lasts — I’ll keep track in this thread.

The link will be shared when it’s done.

That game sucked. I know it was early , but the feeling of giving up a 19 point lead in the playoffs is excruciating. This team plays those type of great & terrible halves too much

Also Minnesota shot like doo doo from the foul line and you let em off the hook.
#MileHighBasketball

Fire first quarter for Denver. Give me three more of those, thanks. #MileHighBasketball

Game Two feels right for action sequel night!

Nuggs win - Sisu : Road to Revenge

Nuggs lose - Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness

#MileHighBasketball

Thanks for the recs! I especially dug Amyl and the Sniffers — they will def make an appearance on next week’s music post.

Two straight days of afternoon starts. I felt like I shouldn’t drink too early both days.. so I opted for a postgame victory beer. #GoAvsGo

I’ve mentioned it before but Dunkels are one of my favorite classic styles.

The Avs prevail in Game One 2-1!!

This was largely LA’s kind of game and Colorado was able to win anyway thanks to some big guts from guys like Lehky and LOC.

Wedgie was great too. I wanted that shutout for him but the end result is what matters. #GoAvsGo

The ref was right there and he didn’t call the shot the back of Cale’s head??? #GoAvsGo

LOC!! My god man. That was sick! Way to earn your goal 25! Colorado leads 2-0 #GoAvsGo

The Avalanche found a way to get in front. Now to see if that reality can open up the ice some as the Kings will have to take chances.

Press your own advantage and finish strong. #GoAvsGo

The Good Stick breaks the scoreless tie late in the second period!!!

Apple to Nate.

#GoAvsGo

A third chance on the powerplay. Time to quit with the cute stuff and shoot please. #GoAvsGo

I agree. But with how fast they were to waive it off. I was unsurprised that they chose not to overturn their own call

Well, he definitely hip checked him into the goalie there — but I’m not shocked the refs called it how they did.

Kill the penalty and get back to work #GoAvsGo

Avs gradually settling into the game. After a hot start they pulled back a bit.

Simple stuff. Crank it up. More pucks on net.

Wedgie did make the best save of the period #GoAvsGo

Game One vs The Kings.

The Avs were the best in the league all year long. Time to prove it when it really counts.

Avs win - The Angels’ Share

Avs lose - The Devil’s Bath
