Avalanche Erase a 4-0 Deficit to Beat the Penguins in OT. Team and MacKinnon Streaks Continue

- This team is never out of it. Even trailing 4-0 against the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Colorado Avalanche found a way to get it done. Five straight goals, with the 5th coming in overtime by Jonathan Drouin lifted the Avs to their 9th straight win and they now have the outright lead in the division.
Speaking of Drouin, he has been one of the hottest players on the team recently. Is he playing his way out of Colorado, or will he sign a new deal for maybe a little less to stay in what clearly is a good situation for him?

Got to go to the game in person. After that first Avs goal, the whole crowd knew the Penguins were done. A pissed off Nate is an amazing thing to see in person. When Nate got his first point, the crowd went absolutely mental. The fans want him to beat Gretzky so bad! 😂 Also so confused how the refs never called penalties every time a Penguin held an Avs player down on the ice. Never seen so many players laying on top of other players and nothing happening. The winning end game hug/huddle was so wholesome and kinda a tear jerker. You could really tell the whole team felt that win. Nothing like an in person Avs game!
I bet that environment was magic
FIRST...
MAD JEALOUS!!!!🥺🥺
But I absolutely second what you said!😉😁😊😊
I can’t imagine being an opposing team against the AVS no matter how many goals you score you can never rest.
It has to be terrifying
I don't know if I've ever seen a team beat a 4-0 start. Wow
Magical stuff lol
How you Drouin?!?
drouin was a beast this afternoon
Well played sir
Are you MacKinnon me?!?
How you Drouin
Oui monsieur!!
Drouin , if a team like Chicago gives him 5x5 then he’s gone , but if he’s willing to take a longer contract for a bit less then it’s good ,,, let’s say 4milx7years then it’s possible,,, but I do believe that the Avs 1st priority is to keep Walker
I’ll give my left toe to help keep him lol
@@shaggyvondoom, I’ll give you my address and bring it down. Pack in plenty of dry ice.
I'll be honest, when they were down 4-0 my thoughts were just "Okay, lets just get a point for Nate so that the streak can continue, and we can just move on to the next game." It wasn't until we scored 2 at the end of the second that I was like "Okay, we can still win this."
Never ever dead
Down 4-0 I don't think any fan will be comfortable. Had they gone into the 2nd intermission still 4-0, next to impossible. Down 4-1, you have my attention. Down 4-2! Ok this is definitetly possible.
I truly LOVE that this game was on TNT...
Now everyone has been put on notice😂
I love when Mackinnon is angry, he's like agent Smith, just never backing down....
I hate that they keep putting themselves in this situation, stop having to come from behind. But man when they do have to come from behind, it's soooo entertaining 😂😂❤❤
@@madamebattleaxe4257 hi madame battle axe !
However they win is good with me, but I just worry that beyond a 1-2 goal deficit, comebacks may be mentally and physically taxing after a while. Plus, goals are at a premium in the playoffs, so it's just a matter of time before our luck runs out.
I think you have to conserve wear and tear for the deep run if at all possible.
Funny enough we did this alot the cup winning year as well, winning is the only thing that matters. In a weird way comebacks are a sign all is right I'm Avs country lol
Wins are wins and you are seeing the Avs do it in many ways and that’s what I like to see
What an awful first period from literally the whole team, can’t really single any one player out cause everyone was bad, but the boys picked it up in the last 10 minutes of the second period and never looked back from there! Obviously not an ideal start but this team is showing you that they can win games in whatever way they want and I absolutely love to see the resilience in these comebacks!
Exactly, it’s refreshing
The slow starts could bite us bad and eventually will. Could arguably be a big reason for some of our losses. I thought it was going to bite the team big here down 4-0. The team woke up at 2-0, but couldn't cash in. They could have easily sailed it in and avoided injury, but that comeback was impressive. I'd rather stop giving up the early chances every game.
Tempted to buy a Halifax Mooseheads jersey now.
Also, loved hearing some variation on this comment from several announcers: "Penguins up 4-0....buuut it's against the Avalanche...sooo...."
Edit: woops, forgot, Soundcheck: Who let da dawgs out.
The narrative exists lol
One of them said "If the Avs score a second goal before the end of the period, they're gonna win this game." That's the kind of thing I only expect to hear from Moser and Rycroft. The Avs have the league on notice.
My opinion on how they should play in playoffs is that they should bury the teams they can when they can. BUT i think the mentality that a game like the Pittsburgh game can make is valuable because it can push them to play until the very end win or lose. Like they wont just roll over and die if theyre down 2 y'know.
They have a grit they haven’t in quite some time
Felt like a trap game from the get go. A noon game on a Sunday against a team they should beat easily but has played the Avs well recently and still has a lot of great players. The Avs just decided to pull a Houdini and escape. Poof…Now you lead me, now you don’t 😂
I used to think sports are rigged, but NHL has been so easy to gamble on and win this year, that I truly don't think it is anymore.. At least the NHL isn't
Afternoon delight
@@michaelangst6078 The trap game comment had nothing to do with sports betting. Just a scenario where it’s setup to be a much tougher game than it looks on paper if you just looked at records before puck drop. But hey, glad you’re winning 👍
So what are rooting for right now? Meaning, for the Avs to win the West and Vegas to overtake LA? It could be better for us to match up against LA rather than Nashville in their current form, and Vegas and Edmonton could beat and bleed each other out in the meantime.
Avs Vs Everybody
I think if you see the same team for a series they have opportunities to figure you out. Touchdown hockey is fun to watch but not sustainable. All that said I am in. GO AVS!!!
They are winning despite the odds and when they don’t have to so that shows grit
“I’ll raise Electrician Ziggy this….” 😂
With this team, as long as there’s time on the clock, there’s hope.
Preachhhh
That game was the best and worst game all season. Mega-paradox. It was so fun to watch, after all that aggravation.
Gotta love it lol
Kyle still got the grease on the camera I see 😂
Some say not greasy enough
I think it should be another one-year deal for Drouin. Maybe as much as 3mil or more. See if he can do it again, before committing long term at a higher dollar amount. I don't think he's worth as much to other teams as he is to the Avalanche.
One year him for life lol
Personally I’m not asking for style points, nor do I think they can’t come from behind in the playoffs. I am however very concerned that the team IS in the habit throughout the entire season of not playing 60 min. It’s more than a trend it’s happened the entire season. Not playing 60 min games in post season will not get you a cup, that’s my concern. That’s why you can’t win like this in the post season.
Now that is a honest and legit concern.
I think the avs offer him a 1-2 year contract at about $2.5 mil and he stays. I would be quite happy to see him stick around for something like that
Agreed
The thing about these Avs is they can score in any way they want. They can just fallout score goals.
It’s a good problem lol
Drouin, like burky and Rodriguez before him, will take the bump in pay and go play somewhere else. The avs will have to find a 6th forward looking to do the same this off-season
Oh well lol
They'll definitely have to give him a raise, but it seems pretty clear that it's the pairing with Mack played a huge part in elevating his game... makes me wonder what other teams will offer him.
The Avs can play poorly but they seldom do it for an entire game. They have all the confidence in the world that if they keep playing their way, they can win any game.
Come playoffs, yeah, anything can happen, but I am not afraid of anyone. This team is as good as any in the league. They can win it all again.
That’s exactly where I am
Did Mitts get an assist on Pittsburg's 4th goal? he should have...
I don’t look at Pittsburgh stats for health reasons lol
Drouin it and Drouin it and Drouin it well
Drouin it with class
It’s not that I don’t believe they can’t come from behind in the playoffs,,, but in the playoffs the teams are better and the games are more intense,,, you can do it once or twice but could you give up let’s say 0-3 after one period to LV? I personally think that yes it’s a great thing to believe you can come back against anyone but you don’t want to put yourself behind the 8 ball every game either
But the Avs can do it , not many teams are tested like the Avs are
Try that comeback against a playoff team. Pittsburgh is not a good team. The Avs have got to come out and play well from the start of the game instead of getting behind early and then trying to catch up.
I'm not saying it's ideal, but they have done it against playoff teams. Vancouver recently and Dallas twice. Again, not the plan u want going into a game, but the 'because it's the playoffs' phrase doesn't mean this team can't do it just cause it's the postseason
But they can do it, they don’t close up shop despite it being a inconsequential game
I get it you guys are pumped about the win but let's be actually honest here, we all know that come from behind wins are not sustainable throughout the course of the playoffs. You honestly think that if the Avs go up against Ottienger, or Helybuck, or Saros, that they're going to get away with not starting games on time and getting into a two or three goal deficit? They might get away with that once. Maybe even twice. But there's no way they win the first round let alone the cup if they don't learn to start games on time.
No u don't want this to be the every game norm in the playoffs. But once or twice in a series? Sure.
All I see is a win. That’s all that’s remembered lol
Crosby is still that dude! The boys got their poop in a group just in time. The goal at the end of 2nd was massive. Down 3 to start the 3rd against 87? 😂No f'n thank you
Shaggy, you decided to go with NIN over highschool musical? They're basically the same, right?😂
In my world…yes lol
This team is far set apart from last seasons roster. Everyone can see it and it’s obvious. The offensive production can’t be stopped in its tracks. Only team I’ve seen slow us down is Winnipeg. I fear them and yes, Vegas, the most.
I’m running out of fear lol
Only team to fear is Vegas. Winnipeg is overrated
Holy shit
I can get behind the avs needing to win a few comebacks. Anything to avoid a game seven😒
None of those lol
Oh, how foolish one can be! Yes, let them do that - falling behind, until in the playoffs they get their asses kicked, because then there it is not a tired Pittsburgh team but a Dallas or Winnipeg or Nashville team that will not let a 4-goal lead disappear. Coach Bednar should make them clear, that is not the way to win games! And Kyle, why do you hate Georgiev so much? Just go to your NJDevils and hate Allen for a while. It is so annoying! 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
I’m fine right where I am, I thought you followed Burky and Donskoi to Seattle?
13:27 You will be playing better teams with better defenses and better goaltenders that are going all out and playing their best hockey at the time. You will lose if you fall down 0-4 in the playoffs. It’s a different animal.
Playoffs are different circumstances
I really get a kick out of these podcasters who denigrate fans who get down on their team when they aren’t doing well. First those fans are your listeners so that’s pretty dumb. Second it’s only human nature and the ups and downs of fandom to get negative when their team struggles. And third, I would bet dollars to donuts these muppets do the exact same thing privately. No thanks …
Don't denigrate people. Calls us Muppets. Got it.
cool story bye /
I just gamble on sports and make money and don't conversate with other people about sports because it's pointless. You have people in the comments saying avalanche should start losing so they will avoid Nashville in the first round blah blah. Not worth wasting my breath argueing with them
@@michaelangst6078 I'm terrible at sports betting. The latest example is my NCAA bracket.
Just call me Gonzo bay bay
