@fia First opportunity for @Cadillac_F1 and FIA intervenes to steal defeat from rhe jaws of victory.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

Multiple crashes, power failures, a red flag start, so many penalty timings! The #MonacoGP never disappoints for a fun race! Congrats to & @MercedesAMGF1 for 5 straight GP wins & the 1st Italian in 24 years to win Monaco!

[FIA @fia]

Youngest #MonacoGP winner ever 👏

At just 19 years, 9 months and 13 days old, he breaks Lewis Hamilton’s previous record from 2008 (23 years, 4 months and 18 days).

Just heard the news on #ClaudeLemieux
This is extremely sad no matter what feelings from past or present you hold. My thoughts and prayers to his family and friends and people who got to see the person off the ice wasn’t the person on. As I’ve said and will always call it as I see it

“If your on the ICE with Claude Lemieux and your turn your back. YOU Are an IDIOT.
But off the ICE I’ll turn mine”

And please. If you are struggling at all please reach out and talk to someone

Godspeed my friend

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@DarrenMcCarty4 As an Avs fan, I appreciate your class. That era was full of so much passion & emotion from both bases. Just a couple weeks ago I re-watched the special of you two. The proof that hatchets can be buried & enemies become friends is a lesson for our times & a legacy left behind.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

So sorry to hear this news. Was such a big part of the late '90s Avalanche & the Avs/Wings rivalry. Stanley Cup winner. Conn Smythe winner. Fierce competitor. He will be missed. 😞 #GoAvsGo

RIP Claude Lemieux

The legend carried the torch into the Bell Centre just a few days ago at Game 3

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@SportsCenter Avs were about finesse. VGK was about power.

Avs riding a President's Trophy. VGK changed coaches w/ eight games left in the season because they felt they weren't good enough.

Avs played like they expected to win. VGK played like they were determined to win.

Hard work wins

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@VicLombardi Ten times in Bednar's tenure the Avs faced playoff deficits. They lost eight of those series. The two they won they only trailed by one game. Not the guy to rally a team from behind.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@XColorado325 @VicLombardi The other option you are missing just won his third natty in five years about five miles from Ball Arena.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

Power over finesse. Defense wins championships. Call it what you want. Avs were outmuscled, outplayed, out of sync. Disappointing end to a good season. #GoAvsGo

[Colorado Avalanche @Avalanche]

final.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@AltitudeTV How about you play with some physicality? We spend a minute passing the puck around. They crash the crease and then press hard on defense. Avs teams shouldn't be pushed around like this.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@Stephhewitt1

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@Stephhewitt1 Outplayed physically and outcoached. No fire when it mattered most. Wedgewood getting exposed on any shoulder shot to his glove side.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@Stephhewitt1 The last winner of the President's Trophy (best regular season record) and the StanleyCup was the 2013 Chicago Blackhawks. It's the NHL version of the Madden curse. That said, yeah, a bad collapse for Kroenke teams.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@MobiusOneFox @Avalanche A killer regular season means nothing. The goal is the Stanley Cup, not the President's Trophy. And it's the same long, grueling season for everyone.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@Avalanche Bednar: "They came out in the 2nd with a hard press and we weren't ready for that."

Why? It's the same damned thing they've done for the two games prior. They were physical and we were finesse and they pushed us around.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

Epic fucking collapse of a game, a series, a season. Bednar needs to be fired as soon as possible. Absolutely soft play. #GoAvsGo

[Colorado Avalanche @Avalanche]

All comes down to Tuesday.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@Brett_McMurphy 1000x this. Like they care about Olympic sports or anything non-revenue generating.

[Colorado Avalanche @Avalanche]

GAME ONE IS OURS.

[Dave Collins @DC_303]

@pac12 @BroncoSports @CSURams @FSAthletics @GonzagaBulldogs @BeaverAthletics @GoAztecs @TxStateBobcats @USUAthletics @WSUCougars "The boundaries are gone"...just like all the teams that gave the conference meaning.
