Nowadays kids’ books have messages like “believe in yourself” and “you can do anything” but when I was a kid the messages were things like “a lady who has a candy house wants to cook and eat you” and “sometimes wolves can disguise themselves as old women”

@mnpucks11 @AlexMicheletti I’m a #goavsgo fan and no Avs fan with any semblance of sanity thinks this will be easy. Most I’ve seen are predicting Avs but at least 6 games. Jeek health will be a huge factor.

Heading to @ballarenadenver to watch the @Avalanche take on the @mnwild in the playoffs? Here are tips for getting to the game smoothly without worrying about the hassle & cost of parking: https://t.co/DEJqzycLvk #GoAvsGo #walkbikeroll #RideRTD

@GrahamTiedtke Clickbait. Anyone loses some games if they don't score enough but #goavsgo gave up least goals in reg. season. Final game vs. #TexasHockey won 2-0 & last reg. game vs. #mnwild won 3-2 in SO. They CAN win by those scores or 6-4 if it opens up. All they're talking about is D 1st.

@StrobelSkyler @D4Bean If you get him you put him on 2nd line wing, let him cook, and let Brock and Val teach him how to play d and hustle.

@HockeyMTNPod I think Olofsson or Colton gets moved with a prospect(s) and/or pick(s) for a mid-six wing upgrade -- ideally Tippett, Coleman or Debrusk.

[Mark Morgenstein @markmorge]

@BFlowSpartan 1st line center in NHL is most important offensive player on the team, almost always a great passer, often a top goal-scorer too. Think NBA point guards or NFL QBs. Not in elite tier but 2nd/3rd tier and still young enough to get better. Think Justin Herbert/Jordan Love in NFL.

[Mark Morgenstein @markmorge]

At #goavsgo game. Rarely complain about reffing but some interesting choices this game, especially on Cale’s “slash” where he didn’t hit anything. #mnwild are good enough. Don’t need bogus calls.

[Mark Morgenstein @markmorge]

@MalleyJimmy He was redundant. Malinski same type of player but better. #goavsgo 2 best D prospects, Gulyayev/Behrens also both undersized puck movers. Needed a defensive D who wont get pushed around. Pitt slightly won trade getting round 2 pick but if Avs get a good 3C & win Cup, who cares?

The Wizard of Oz turns 87 this year, and back in 1998, critic Rick Polito wrote what might be the greatest one-line TV listing ever for TCM.

Asked Marchand how often he skates with MacKinnon, his linemate at Canada practice, in the summer:

“Well, he skates and I kind of try to chase him down.”

Is that what you’ll be doing here?

“Yeah, exactly. I’m just going to give it to him and change. I’m not catching him.”

Brilliant reimagining of this meme. Little Mack will be pushing big Mack and mc very soon.

@batcountry1980 Love this. So hard to pin them down. So many influences on top of the nyc velvets/television/strokes lineage. A little early tom waits to me. And Long Island sounds to be as if wild-era Bruce incorporated velvets.

@Avalanche Which veteran LD incoming? #GoAvsGo

[Mark Morgenstein @markmorge]

@jessemontano_ Some team that has a 3C or 7D needs a goalie. Good time to showcase him with the woods not 100% and Nabakov still a few months from coming to the U.S.

[Mark Morgenstein @markmorge]

@HighCountryCush @Avalanche Last 3 games with landy and Toews out.

[Mark Morgenstein @markmorge]

@avrilanche Exactly less chance of injury. #goavsgo

it's messed up that there a million songs about love but zero about hopping on a quick call with key stakeholders
