DU up to 13 in PWR

Re: All Things Denver, XXX1X

Solid win for DU.

I would expect that if Jaillet plays well tomorrow that he would have to be the guy going forward. Cowley has a sub .900 svs pct in NCHC play, which will never cut it. A .915 is really the minimum needed out of a goalie to remain competitive in the NCHC and that's where Jaillet is at right now...not to mention Cowley's NCHC GAA is a full goal higher than Jaillet's...I am also pretty sure that Cowley has been pulled in 4 out of his 7 conference starts, which is a pretty shocking number.

Nick Shore's NHL debut as kings face the Ducks.

Drew will be the center with Colborne on RW as Flames visit San Jose.

Monday could be Shore vs Shore when Calgary comes to LA.

That's more shocking is the weak goals Cowley has conceded this season in conference play. Those are goals that you simply cannot give up. I can understand a softie once in a while, happens to every goalie, but Cowley has been giving up some howlers of late.

Re: All Things Denver, XXX1X

So...after this weekend, Jaillet is now pimping a 2.02 GAA and .925 SVS in NCHC action, which is good for 2nd and 4th amongst conference goaltending. Cowley will need to get back in there eventually but I think there is no doubt that Jaillet should be getting the bulk of the minutes. DU absolutely needed these wins and his work this weekend was key.

True. Cowley is still a bit raw and in a perfect scenario, he would still be in juniors as he is still young in the goaltending realm...Jaillet is almost 2 full years older. Cowley has a pretty high ceiling, I believe, and will have a nice career but DU needs to go with whoever gives them the best chance to win game in and game out. Right now that is Jaillet...

ASaaG posted a good article about Gwoz on XXXVIII.

LA kings Live mentioned the Shore parents were in LA to see Nick's debut and the game against the Flames on Monday.

BTW, how do we close the old thread?

On 1/16 Chambers reported Cowley's the one. (see post 18 for link)
After last night's game he reversed himself and proclaimed Jaillet is @1.

Chambers be a flip-flopper

I guess reality slaps everyone across the head eventually...can't maintain any sort of argument against an on-fire goaltender with currently deserved recognition...

Nolan Zajac has the #4 Goal in the NCHC's Top 5 Goals.
Trevor Moore's goal against Dartmouth was #5 a couple of weeks ago.

Re: All Things Denver, XXX1X

Conference leader UNO, 29 points, is idle. And UMD, 25 points, is playing out of conference
Since #2 North Dakota is facing cc, it is reasonable to assume that they will increase their 22 points and could pass UMD in the standings, unless cc manages to get 3 or more points

#9 Miami 7-5-0 21 pts
#11 DU 6-5-0 18 points
Pios do have 1 game in hand, but it would take a 5 or 6 point weekend, on the road, to pass Miami in the conference standings.

Re: All Things Denver, XXX1X

Nice story about the Shore brothers before te Kings-Flames game. And why Drew has yet to play a 2nd game with the Flames.
http://calgaryherald.com/sports/hoc...-love-between-the-shores-as-flames-face-kings

There’s also the issue with Shore’s contract. He becomes waiver-eligible after one more NHL game, meaning that if the Flames wanted to send him down to the Adirondack Flames, he’d have to clear waivers. (And the feeling is he’d be picked up off of waivers and they’d lose their asset).

Re: All Things Denver, XXX1X

Just more or less announced/confirmed - 2016 NHL Winter Classic to be held in Denver. Avs to host the Red Wings (from Detroit). Either Coors Field or Folsom Field. What if.....what if there's an NCAA game the day before? Denver - CC? Denver-North Dakota? Let the rumors begin

Winter Classic on New Years Day will be Montreal at Boston in Foxboro, MA. There will be two Stadium Series games later in the season with AVs hosting Red Wings, second game will be Chicago at MN Wild. Official announcement will come during All Star Weekend.

Drew Shore sent back to Adirondack

The Wings are from Michigan, why not an out of conference with Michigan?
