The confidence and cohesiveness of this Avalanche team is insane.
That's how they beat the Oilers 4 games straight !
Fr theyd have a time tough w my beer leauge team a couple nips down tho ngl
They are just the better team right now.TB will need adjustements but I dont think it will be enough.They are getting smashed,badly.
and with their speed they are scary, and a joy to watch
Yes, don't forget their speed. They're so fast it's insane
4 mins in and I had to double check that I wasn't just watching an Avalanche highlights video...such domination.
yo for real I don’t think I saw a single TB shot on goal
@@Rednasyl28 6:26 (early in the third) makes up the entire Bolts part of this clip. 😁
“Vasilevskiys gonna lock down in net”
Probably the most complete game I’ve seen a team play from start to finish. This is hockey at its best.
Hockey at it's best is seeing two teams play their best
@@saskk2290 yes sir
Never seen Tampa so exposed. Colorado was skating circles around them.
No, it's not
@@jamescash887 before cups vasilevsky was there only weakness TB would go in series and underdogs would beat them (habs etc) than for some reason he got invincible and now hes back to being their only weakness im like why couldn't he break down last year lol
Avs played as close to a perfect a game as you'll ever see in the NHL tonight. That crowd is electric.
They are literally crushing those toxic TB fan"s dreams and its awesome.
@@alpe6228 Tampa fans are hardly toxic. If you want toxic, look at Ranger, Detroit, Philly, or Boston
@@transws6am TB has only been good for like 3 years but their fans act like they’re the greatest team ever
Well said, that was pretty much a perfect game by Colorado.
@@P51DFreak25 they also won in 04. I guess they sucked then also? Sounds more like you think you know hockey, when in reality it's you that is clueless.
The Avs looks so hungry and energetic. It's breathtaking to watch this elecrtic and young team play!
They want it. The fans want it. It's beautiful. But it ain't over yet!
@@soadfan1016 you're right. it is on Wednesday
I like to think that Kadri's injury fueled them even more to win it.
Here's hoping they do (from a Leafs fan)
Avs average age - 28.08. Tampa is 29.59.. not much of a difference
@@Curates223 They didn't say the Avs being young is mutually exclusive to the Lightning being young.
Are these guys human?? I’ve never seen a team operate like this. Precision and perfection.
And don’t forget they are playing at a high altitude amazing the speed ect
You ever wanted to watch utter domination for 3 hours? Here 'ya go! Great job Colorado!
Easiest shutout of Kuemper's life
@@soadfan1016 🤣😂!
Tampa-TAMPAX!
Tampa is 100% reliant on the officiating.
3 hours? They've lost once in the playoffs so far. This has been a steamrolling round after round.
I just got home from this game, having been extremely lucky to get an extra ticket from a very generous person. We arrived inside the building at 5:00 pm, over an hour before puck drop...and the place was already deafening inside. And this was just at the arena entrance!! What an incredible atmosphere, and an incredible game to watch in person. The speed, tenacity, and hunger of the Avs against an elite opponent was amazing, and the arena was a non-stop party that began long before the first whistle. What an incredible night!
I wish I was in Denver again, I miss living there, I absolutely love this team.
Enjoy it. Most people live entire lifetimes without ever seeing their teams dominate to this extent.
I’m jealous!
What a game to go to
@@timothyhughes3303 me too man... me to
This could be the best played playoff game I've ever seen by a team, start to finish.
And, in the SCF! Even more impressive!
By far the best I’ve ever seen
Or the worst. Depending on your point of view lol
@@adamleblanc5294 Imagine if instead of Jon Cooper it had been a college or NFL coach in his position tonight. He’d have lost his voice by the end of the 1st period prolly😂
Exactly really and think about it MacKinnon hasn't even scored a goal in this series yet !! LOL
Can't remember the last time someone put up a 7-spot against a team in the Finals and also gave them absolutely nothing on the defensive end. A perfect game for the Avs.
AHEM…
My Boston bruins in 2011!!!!!!
8-0 in game 3 at home, when the BEAR WAS WOKEN UP!☺️
They are only the third team in nhl history and first from 1991 that score 7 goals and opponent score 0 in play off final
@@nicholasvandal6948 11 years ago, the Bear is washed up with face licking clowns like Marchand and crap goaltending. They won't come even close to a cup for another 5 years at least. Bruins are a joke. Bunch of old men.
@@nicholasvandal6948 It was 8-1. This was another level. Vancouver had few really good chances and score goal Tampa got literally nothing
@@luboss822 that game was probably the reason why Tim Thomas won the Conn Smythe that year.
Nichuskin is the MVP of the series thus far. As a Stars fan, it's awesome to watch him find a second wind with Colorado!
I would love to see him win the Conn Smythe
@@juhomantynen4638 makar is winning the con smyth so far
lol no mention of Rantanen feeding him for easy goals huh
@@DrZaius first off, he's working his own ass off to get in scoring positions. Second, he's gotten several apples himself by setting up linemates. Third, gtfo with the hate... he's been a stud in the finals.
I love Makar’s parents and MacKinnon’s parents sitting together.
COlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllorado
The Avalanche dominated the Lightning here worse than the Lightning ever dominated the Stars or the Habs, which is saying something considering how talented the Lightning are.
They had it easy against Dallas (mediocre) and Montreal (mediocre)
Different years, different teams.
So this is what happens when the lightning have to play an actual good team in the finals
@@buttbillington9463 Yup, off topic but it's laughable that Montreal made the finals last year LMAO
@@soadfan1016 Montreal was limping in the finals , Weber had 4 and + serious injury and Price was goaling on one knee
Wow. Just all I can say. I've never seen a team play this complete a game (in the Finals) in the 15 years I've been watching hockey. This was a completely one-sided game from start to finish. Well done, Avs
This wasn't just a win, this was an ass beating.
Avalanche are an absolute BEAST of a team. I love it. Happy for Mac and Lehkonen. Loved the kid here in Montreal.
Tampa fans “ AVs hAvENt PLaYeD A rEaL GoAliE YEt”
Avs “hold this touchdown Vasy.”
YUP
Right. Vasiveslky had a .766% save percentage.
Vasy has shittiest playoff stats this year since round 1
Yes
I love the Avs but you can’t compare goalies the Avs are winning it on offense I’m sorry no goalie could stop the avalanche playing like this stop being so cocky it’s a truth that the Avs weakness was goalie and IT STILL IS THEIR WEAKNESS
Im a Blackhawks fan til the end but I know talent when I see it. The Avalanche are absolutely dominating this series so far. It was a treat to see it live on tv. Can't wait for the next game.
As a Stars fan who despises Tampa and really enjoyed our last Avs series, this game brought me immense joy
Me too, loved seeing Tampa Bay getting slaughtered
This Av's team walks and plays with swagger and confidence Honestly,I've never seen (in my over 30 years in Canada) a team with more confidence and swagger,than this Avalanche team.I believe this team is better than the Avalanche team of the 90's or early 2000's...
In this entire video there was ONE Tampa Bay highlight. Avs completely dominated this game from start to finish.
WOW! Domination! Don't give the Lightning an inch! Keep it up Avs!!!!
The true Avalanche are back. They're looking similar to their mid 90s - early 2000s ancestors. Would be great if they can use this momentum to win lord Stanley. Looking really good for them so far.
This team is better
@@Rino37 They're going to need more than one good season to be compared with the team from those days.
Been watching since 95.
B E T T E R
@@b.c.2281 they’ve had more than one good season, just have been unlucky with key injuries in the past couple of playoffs
As a Wings fan we’re on our way up, I hope you guys win and keep up the dominance while we’re building so we can really reignite the rivalry, we’ve got to hold up our end now.
As a Rangers fan, I'm glad we're not on the receiving end of this beatdown. Silver lining yknow
I almost feeling bad my bolts reach the finals lol The avs are something else
My sentiments exactly. Rangers had a great run and I’m glad it won’t end with a broom. These Nordiques are crazy good.
Makar's goal celebrations remind me of Bobby Orr. Barely any expression. Just another day at the office type reaction. He's so humble!! What a talent!
I havent followed the NHL for a while as a demoralized Canucks fan but started watching the start of the playoffs. The Avalanche are beyond impressive in every area of the game. They have to be one of the best team constructions in the last 20 years. How they dismantled Edmonton's high scoring speedsters in short order is mind boggling. Is it possible they are going to Crush Tampa in the same manor? How do you stop them if your Tampa?
Colorado is breathtaking to watch, my goodness!
Very quick team, some other fast teams that are fun to watch are Edmonton or Vegas, it's like an arcade on ice.
Boring team
@@cyeeDaRealGoat okay oilers fan......
@@cyeeDaRealGoat what
@@hypehky5326 the f
Thank you Colorado Avalanche for the joy, the delight brought, in this match!
This Avalanche team is electric.
LFG AVS!!!! This was EASILY the most dominant playoff game by any team I have ever watched!! What a performance! Two more wins baby!!!
The energy of the fans is just amazing...
I'm young enough to have barely missed the 2001 cup run but the energy in the whole state right now is something I've never seen before, so much fun
I'm from NYC but go to college in Colorado, was definitely rooting for a rangers and avs finals game, but after seeing how good the avs were I didn't even want the rangers to get to the finals just to get humiliated by the avs. This here is just pure dominance.
Yea as a rangers fan this this is why I'm happy we didn't make the cup final
My respects to both of you. But the rangers had a great run. Maybe an Avs / Rangers final next year? 🤔
Валерий просто супер, вперёд
I love how mackinnons parents sit with Makars parents
Tied for 2nd for largest shutout victory in a Stanley Cup Final Game. In '91 the Pens beat the Minnesota North Stars 8-0 in the Finals. They tied for second with the 1919 Seattle Metropolitans at 7-0. I remember the North Stars but a little too young to remember when Seattle had a team. Still amazing to see such a lopsided win in an important game.
The crazy part is this game could have been 10-0 or even 11-0 but varsy had some good saves
This is flawed logic; he also let a few pucks in that could’ve been saved, so to say every good scoring chance should yield a goal is moot and null.
Fantastic game though, without the hypotheticals ✌🏼
@@casualwest7130 Wouldn’t blame him for any of those goals. All beautifully finessed goals. His D-Men allowed too many odd man rushes and break-aways. If it wasn’t for him, I think it’d be like 20.
@@casualwest7130 yeah not really true at all
I counted at least 5 goals that were borderline unstoppable because the defensive effort in front was too lackluster.
And the OP has a point, I believe ABC showed a graphic after the burakovsky breakaway in period 1 that said Vasileskiy saved 9/10 breakaway chances from Colorado, 90% save percentage on breakaway.
Goalies have closer to a 50% save percentage on average on breakaways, maybe 60
This game should have been 10-0 lmao
I’m not argueing the likelihood, but in general I feel like saying ”it could have been” is always a moot point as it only takes away from what we actually did witness. And it was a fantastic game already, so I’d rather take it for what it is, that’s all.
@@casualwest7130 It’s a not a moot point as I am assessing the actual game and basing my assumptions on the odd man rushes that were created and team performance.
What I am saying here is: if it weren’t for Vasy, based off his performance tonight and series prior. (he still played well tonight) it would have been a lot worse and he wouldn’t taken his team as far as he did if he was letting in goals he should be stopping.
🤩 Amazing Colorado tonight, si siguen jugando asi!! Todo es posible, que Defensa y que forma de hacerl goles de los defensas… una Máquina de hacer goles este equipo!!!! Go Avs Go!!!!! Saludos 🖖 de Colombia! All the small things
Tampa-TAMPAX!
Awesome 😎😎 Saludós de Anaheim California esta mui padre que el deporte de Hockey esta Creciendo yo le voy as los patos 🦆 de Anaheim pero me q estoy mui feliz que el deporte no, no mas son para los Canadienses
@@maxmartinez3172 ya que me hablas de los patos de Anaheim me haces acordar los Mighty Ducks de los finales de los 90 y 2000 donde jugaban Teemu Salanne y Paul Kariya, tremendo jugadores!!! Que también jugaron una temporada creo que por allá en el 2004 en Colorado Avalanche, saludos!!!
This has got to feel a bit legitimizing for the Oilers- who were widely mocked for their loss to Avs. People trashed Mike Smith, trashed the Oilers overall- but they put up a heck of a fight. The Avs are hungry and relentless!
Wow. Just wow. Let's keep rolling down South!! GO AVS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As a diehard lightning fan.. I am proud of avalanche for being able to dominate a team like Tampa bay. It was hard to watch, but wow.. just wow
This series reminds me of the pens and sharks in 2016. Just too fast, too skilled, wave after wave of attack. Beautiful hockey.
Great comparison
This comment hurts me as a Sharks fan haha
It is funny that you say that because I was thinking the same exact thing. The HBK line that year was fast and lethal, Kessel should of won the Conn that year. The main reason why SJ made that series competitive was solely due to Martin Jones playing at a high level only with Vasey, he is struggling. I know his team has put him in some rough situations but he has let some soft goals in and had has multiple games before this series where Toronto and NYR have had success lighting his lamp. Without superb goaltending that Jones provided for his team, Tampa's season could be over in 5 games or dare I say, a sweep.
@@jakepark7827 I think it’s a little silly to compare Vasey and Jones. Vasey is a two time champ and has proven champion pedigree. Colorado just out played them pure and simple. It happens. We will see what happens game three. Remember NYR went up 2-0 and look what happened to them.
@@jamescash887 i am not comparing their credentials on what they have accomplished in their careers, I am only comparing Vasey's performance in the Cup finals this year to Jones' Cup finals appearance in 2016, nothing else.
Rantanen again the best player on the ice, what a post season he's having!
Feels like you can insert any Avs top 12 players' name into this statement amd it would still be valid.
@@haynryan87 there can only be one best player on the ice and thats been rantanen lately but every avs player is on fire atm!
This Panthers fan congratulates the Tampa Bay Lightning with this historic loss against the Colorado Avalanche.
😂🤣 Love it.
Goodness gracious! I love my hometown AVS! An absolute force of nature! Speed and precision that goes beyond the bounds of hockey itself!
What an incredible display of power and skill, amazing hockey!
From a Habs Fan, Go Avs Go ;) ♥
Fellow Habs fan, but couldn't agree more! I wish our team played like this. This Avs team is like Habs circa 1977.
@@matthewweinberg9842 Ive been watching the whole match replay and it's incredible, they made tampa look like rookies haha
@@PeachRap Same haha! It's amazing. The Lightning made the Rangers look like rookies and the Avalanche are making the Lightning look like they are playing in the AHL. It's really like they are in a different league. Have never seen anything like it.
If someone had told me when the playoffs started that there will be a single game where the opposing team puts the puck 7 times behind the back of Vasy I would have laughed. Let's go Avs 2 more
Avalanche have the depth to win it …. Avs worked for this moment many many years
Super Joe
They've only lost twice this entire postseason. If they sweep the Bolts, they'll set the league record for fewest postseason losses by a Stanley Cup winner, a record currently held by...
Wait for it...
The Colorado Avalanche.
@@MisterVercetti I like the way you think.
“Give them nothing, but take from them everything!” This quote from the movie 300 describes this game so aptly.
That was as complete a domination of a game as anyone has ever seen. I had seen the highlights on the official NHL channel, but I had to check this channel to see if my mind wasn't playing tricks on me.
know what makes this even more impressive?
Missing 2nd line center and all star Nazem Kadri.And missing top 4 dman Sam Girard, who averages 21 minutes a night.
Two key players are missing and they pitch a shutout on practically all accounts. Breathtaking.
Лавины это просто нечто!!! Браво
Best hockey team in the world.
@@mampe8898 nah oilers are
@@cyeeDaRealGoat swept in the wcf says otherwise
TAMPA GOALIE WANTS TO BE A FORWARD AGAIN 3X
Absolute dominance. Idk if I’ve ever seen a Stanley cup performance that dominant in a long time.
What an Avalanche that came down on Tampa. Luckily for them it's only 1 game at the end. They've just been through this before but the Avs are a whole different animal than the Rangers were.
Burakovsky has owned Vasy since the 2018 ECF. As a Caps fan, I love seeing Burakovsky flourish.
I can’t believe i was there! The best crowd and the best overall game of hockey I’ve ever seen the Avalanche play with that much on the line. Truly an incredible time to be an Avs fan! It feels all the sweeter after having been the worst team in the league only 5 seasons ago. And suffering the playoff defeats then after. What a job Joe Sakic has done. Hats off to Yzerman too for building the Lightning! The underlying red wings rivalry of this series is fun!
Truly one of the most dominant Stanley cup performances I’ve ever seen
Wow I didn’t expect that! What a dominant win. Clearly a statement of intent from Colorado.
This was like a shooting gallery and breakaway practice. Never seen a finals game like this, Tampa better get it together.
No chance
The Avs are like the Habs of the seventies, every line is a juggernaut, they come in waves, unstoppable.
And there was some good saves from goalkeeper, it could be 14:0. What a game!
The over/under for combine goals was 6.
The Avs covered that by themselves.
The most dominant game of hockey I’ve ever seen.
I’m so excited to see my boys playing at sea level on Monday. Go Avalanche.
Wow Excellence at it's BEST. Just breath taking. Unbelievable.
Nichushkin is beast!!!
People talk so much about the rangers series and how tampa came back after losing 2 in a row but this series is SO much different than the rangers series. The avalanche and the rangers are very different teams. Vasilevsky got his bell rung tonight. To be honest, I would not be surprised to see the Avs win in 5 or 6.
EXACTLY! We aren't the Rangers!
Idk it might be a sweep or atleast 5.
@@northy320 Sweep for sure. Tampa just cannot match this team. In fact no team in the East would have been a match.
Vasil got his bubble burst each time he played the AVS. He is 0-4 or 0-5. Even if the AVs won in season, both teams had teir best roster and yet, the Bolts couldnt make it. This reminds me of Rask who couldnt beat the HABs, never did he.
Avs win in 4 if I'm lucky to go to the game hopefully 5 to win it at home
Tampa- It’s fine, Colorado has a strict goal limit.
Colorado- *Turns off limit*
Tampa- Oh fu-
Revisiting this one. I've never seen such a game like this in the cup final. How insane to do this to the back to back champs. It's maybe the most complete, dominant gamesI've ever seen.
40 years of watching hockey. I've never seen a team dominate a game this thoroughly since THOSE Edmonton Oilers.
That said, I'm surprised Jon Cooper made almost not adjustments from Game 1. He still committed to forechecking 2 and 3 men deep, despite every single time it got broke, it was an odd-man rush straight to his goal. He kept the same line combinations, even though his checking line simply cannot keep up with McKinnon's line. And his top line is getting outworked and penned in by the Av's checking line. Everything the Lightning did wrong in Game 1 was on display, worse, in Game 2.
That's taking nothing away from the Avs, every mistake the Lightning made was forced, and then ruthlessly exploited. While the Avs gave virtually nothing away in return.
Helm played with the guys who won 4 cups in det, against all those avs teams and now he's helping the bastards in the finals. They are fun to watch and I hope he gets to hoist the silver
Thanks for Helm. Dude is a beast. He brings that Detroit smash mouth hockey to Colorado and I'm here for it
Holy S&>t Helm has been a goddamned HORSE
As an Avs fan, Detroit and Colorado is the best rivalry in all of sports and it’s almost poetic to see helm doing it for us. Claude Lemeuix started the greatest rivalry ever, those were some amazing series in the 90s and early 2000s
This Avs fan from the battle era has made friends and shared snipes with some of the nicest Red Wings fans over the years. We'll take care of Darren Helm, promise.
Hatchet Buried, Long Live King Helm
You know it's bad when a highlights video shows only one team.
The deepest team I've seen.
That forecheck though. Hungry.
I'm actually proud of my Blues beating them twice especially on home ice
Might be the only team to win against the avs in the playoffs 🤣
After the game was over, ESPN’s Emily Kaplan interviewed Cale Makar and asked the following question:
“Will you celebrate at all tonight?”
Cale Makar: “No”
This is how locked in the team is right now. There is nothing to celebrate. The job is only half done. They played their most perfect game of the season and they are still not satisfied. They will not stop until they lift that cup above their heads.
Everyone contributed. The bottom six came back with vengeance and just completely destroyed the Bolts. Kuemper remained sharp to earn himself a shutout. I was thrilled to see Cogliano come back and make a difference in game 2. The Colorado Avalanche stuck to their game plan and did not blink once. You can’t ask for anything else from this team tonight because they gave you everything against the two-time defending champs.
There is honestly nothing else to add because they played a flawless game from start to finish. They put their foot on the gas and literally did not let go. This is the exact type of effort that the Avs must duplicate in the next two games.
The reason why I predicted Avs in 5 was because the name of the game for this series is speed. Tampa can’t keep up. In the last 2 games, the Avs have outshot the bolts 68-39. Vasilevskiy can only do so much. In fact, 7 goals were the most he has ever allowed in his career whether it was in the regular or post season. He may have just have met his match.
Here is something for you, Bolts fans. Valerie Nichushkin outshot Nikita Kucherov, Brayden Point and Ondrej Palat combined in two consecutive games.
YUP! It ain't over, nothing to celebrate. I absolutely LOVE the Avs players' attitudes all playoffs long. They're determined, they're hungry, and they aren't satisfied until they lift LORD STANLEY'S CUP! It ain't over. Lot's of work to do. It's encouraging, but now it shifts to Tampa. The Avs need to stay hungry, determined, and committed cause it takes 4 wins, not 2!
Yep that what happens when you play too many game seven in a weak conference!! We sweep our opponent's!
Tampa-TAMPAX!
Best team I've seen in two decades. Deep, focused, capable. GO AVS GO.
I have a tremendous amount of respect for Vasi, but the one thing that has never worried me about the Avs is scoring on any goalie. You know they're good for like 3-5 a game, just a matter of shutting down the opponent and getting at least average goaltending. And it's working perfectly so far, hope they continue it
Great job Avs.
I am beyond impressed with Cale Makar. The way he is able to transition from defence to offense and also dictate the play is incredible.
It's like we're watching Hedman pass the torch to him.
@@gdiggedy9 I agree.
Makar is absolutely mind blowing talent. He’s only 23 too he has many many years to grow and develop even more I’m excited to watch him I’ll be following him every season from now on.
Usually this wakes a team up to go home for a win. The Aves look like the greatest team ever right now!
2 of those goals Vasy probably wants back. The rest were pretty hard to stop almost unstoppable without luck added. Great goals by the AVS. Made the bolts look like a new franchise where the players just met 5min before game time and have no chemistry yet.
This Tampa team is good but I think this really shows what proper rest gives to teams that are young and fast. Tampa got by a tired and gassed Rangers team. I have never seen a more one sided game and it’s all credit to colorado. You simply cannot do anything against a team that plays that fast for 60 minutes. Utterly insane.
Tampa-TAMPAX!
Pretty good team. Been a fan since they moved to Denver in 95. Have never seen them this complete since the cap started. All credit to Bednar he's been the change imho
They were down 2-0 to the Rangers and found a way to win..This is a different 2-0 deficit..They’ll be lucky if this ends 4-2
@@raidersacdc4892 yea but no offense the Rangers are nowhere near as good as the Avs
Just remember that Cooper said the Avs can't keep up this pace.....
I think he's referring to the pace they have been playing at for the past 16 games but I'm not sure.
Сегодняшнюю игру можно описать одним словом - унижение. Двукратных обладателей кубка, действующих чемпионов унизили. Раскатали как котят. Сегодня на поле была одна команда. Проиграть можно по-разному. Но в финале кубка так нельзя. Теперь посмотрим что у молний с самолюбием и честью, ибо и то и другое сегодня просто втоптали в грязь.
Полностью с вами согласен,можно проиграть как это было в прошлом матче,но так как это сегодня вышло можно охарактеризовать двумя словами-позор и унижение.
Поддерживаю всецело!
Это всего лишь тотализатор,,,Тампа не играла,,,просто слили игру,,,при чём тут самолюбие,,,
Okay English speaker here... what did the translator do when you say rolled out like kittens

As a panthers fan, this makes me very happy
Ranger, Panther and Maple Leaf fans - all aboard the Colorado train!
Lol
I've been watching NHL since 1991 and I've never, ever seen a team so dominant in the finals as the Avs yesterday. It was quite amazing to watch. Sure the Tampa home games might not be as easy but this looked like men versus boys... so TB needs a freakin' miracle to win this series.
Ok...have to say - the camera work/angle at 1:05 - LOVE IT!
Yeah that's dope
Almost looks like a video game.
yea their using a sky cam like what the nfl uses on field
It should be 10-0, What a game !!!!
Makar for Conn Smyth looks like it's locked in. And think, he isn't near his prime yet.

Never thought I see tb get wrecked in the playoffs this yr
I didn’t expect that but it’s still only 1 game. Keep your foot on the gas, boys!
Wow!!! Colorado destroys Tampa Bay 7-0!!! I really enjoyed watching this match, thank you Colorado!
Up 2-0 in the series, but do not underestimate the capacity of the Lightning to come back in games 3 & 4 in Tampa Bay. In the first round, in game #3, Toronto beat the Lightning in Tampa in a close one. But then Tampa came back with vengeance in game #4 to win 7-3 !
That was the most dominant 60 minutes of hockey I've ever seen, regular season or playoffs
Never have I enjoyed a game that much like this one last night.
Holy damn it was incredible how the Avs dominated the game from start to the end. Tampa looked like juniors team
Amazing command of the game by the Avs - I want the cup to come back to the West - Go Avs Go!
🙌 awesome!! what a performance by the avalanche
Sooooo awesome! Historic playoff run going here.

Will the Lightning come back in their home ice advantage.. Probably.. Will they win both games at home?? Doubtful... This Avalanche team is amazing. And surely by now they have learned Vasilevskiy inside and out.
Makes me remember the old days of Forsberg and co. The Stanley Cup is heading back to Colorado me thinks.
What an Avalanche that was. Perfect name for us.
i can't believe that Brian Elliot didn't come in. not that it would have mattered, i just think it's cruel to leave the same goalie in for an entire game like this.
St. Patrick quit the Habs for this
I can't wait until he pulls a Patrick Roy, and says "this is the last game I play for this team".
@@kyledavidson8712 beat me to it lol
Cooper seems to think that Vasy is Superman. "Oh, he doesn't need a rest, he can play for 19 games straight and never run out of gas! Surely this man is a GOD!"
Tonight was Cooper's wake up call. Elliott not manning the pipes on Monday is tantamount to Cooper giving up and waving the white flag. And yes, I do hope that prompts ol' Andrei to give Cooper and the Bolts the proverbial middle finger. The man's going to have back issues for the rest of his life given how he's carried this team on it for nearly a decade.
Elliott deserves to win a cup. He should start game 3
So awesome to see Avs make Tampa look like an absolute joke. I love it
Lets go for the sweep
Makar is such an offensive weapon for a defender, this team knows how to really steamroll its opponent if it gets going early. They say that speed kills, but so does lightning! The series ain't over yet, but Avs are halfway there, they're looking to snuff out a storm...exciting hockey going down
I was laughing with each goal watching this. After years of watching my Avs sputter and flop in the playoffs, seeing my team dominate and get a 7-0 shut out in the finals was like food for the soul. Too bad this year went the other way, but memories from this great performance take the sting out of future disappointments.
WOW! Total Domination!
