Dejà Vu in Vancover, Avs Lose 5-2

Sorry for the late review (I'm not sure how many of you want to relive this one anyway) -- I got some late minute tickets to see DU beat North Dakota 1-0 in a really entertaining and spirited hockey game.  I watched last night's game this morning, no idea of the horror awaiting me...
  • The wheels have come off in 3rd period in 3 of the last 4 game for the Avs - 11 goals in the 3rd periods of those 3 games.  Obviously, this is a very disturbing tread.
  • I don’t have a player to throw under the bus today; this was a team collapse.
  • Sedin’s game winning goal was simply unacceptable defensive coverage, especially in a tied hockey game in the 3rd.
  • While it was understandable, I wasn’t happy with Andy body language after Sedin’s goal.  He looked defeated.
  • What happened to the team that seemed to never give up?  In October in Detroit - the Wings scored what seemed to be a backbreaking goal late in the 3rd, and it didn’t seem to even phase the Avs.   In these last two, the game was over as soon Nucks / Oil scored the go ahead goal.
  • I think the Avs really missed Footer’s veteran leadership in these last two games.  Maybe he would have been able to calm the team down a little more when things started to go south…
  • O’Reilly was invisible all game long.
  • On the plus side - the PP seemed to be much better with Liles back and Clark played his best game of the season.
