<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KakkoForMauriceRichardAward</b></div><div>Jost being a bust ish is huge to the Avs. By now, we should be a 2C, or at least an upper tier 3C. Yet he's barely a 3rdliner</div></div>

Rantanen being an elite 1st line forward is huge to the Avs. By now, he should have been a 50 point 2nd line RW. Yet he's a top 5 RW in the entire league.

Makar close to being a No.1 Dman is huge to the Avs. By now, he should be a 3rd pairing OFD, or maybe a 2nd pairing OFD if we're lucky. Yet he's an elite No.1 Dman in the making.

Timmins looking like a top 4 Dman is huge to the Avs....

etc etc etc

If Jost being a bust-ish is the price of hitting on all our other high picks, that's a price I'm glad to pay.

It would be nice if he could take the 3C role, but at least we are blessed with some other guys who can make up for his shortcoming.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>they were seconds away from beating the stars in Regulation bc of a defensive breakdown int heir own zone, Namestinkov being a pretty big culprit in that play. Injuries happen to every team, it sucks but you need to be lucky as well as good to win the cup. It wasn't just the goalie that caused them that series, they didnt execute to win those games...even game 2 when they blew that lead.

Lightning won the cup without Stamkos one of their top players, that would be like Avs winning the cup without Rantanen all playoffs. Thats not an easy thing to do either.

The bubble was dumb as well, the game that Grubauer got hurt, in a normal playoff format Avs would not be playing that night as the first round wasn't even completed yet, the NHL forced that series to start early so they have a game on a Saturday. the only one. Any other year Avs would have been chilling with extra days off but instead were playing early than they should have.</div></div>
Yes, damn now you got me thinking about how close the Avs where 😢

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Pond_Duck</b></div><div>Well yes, this is because in my mind the Avalanche lost their chance for the Stanley cup because of injuries, but not necessarily lack of depth. And 13th forwards and 7th
D’S are usually pretty cheap and easy to get. And it’s not terrible to be paranoid about having a lack of depth, and like the avs it’s good to have “to much” depth.</div></div>
