    Just as the Avs started to get some momentum. Smashed by the flames. We just can't stop the puck getting belted into our net.

    Bad loss for the Avs as the West is very tight with only four points separating last place and a playoff spot, making winning games against the teams around you vital. 

    That being said, Colorado has some very good young players and a solid goalie tandem. I'd be surprised if you didn't make an impact in the playoffs.

    And then we come back with a big win over the Sharks.. Like you said GTG it is really tight now for the wildcard spot and we need to keep that momentum going. I just feel like we give up to many goals to make a real impact in the playoffs, if we can make it.

    It'll be very interesting to see how the Western conference pans out over the next couple of months, but my money is on the Avs making the playoffs.

    On another note, the All Star lineups were announced today. It's going to be a 3v3 format with one team representing each division (4 teams total). Quite a few surprises here:

    -John Scott (Arizona's enforcer) named as captain of the Pacific after a fan campaign to vote him in.

    -Jagr captain of the Atlantic despite requesting fans to not vote for him because he would rather have the weekend off to go to the Bahamas.

    -No Crosby

    -The Central Division is the strongest by a fair way, IMO.

    How do Habs fans change a lightbulb?

    They don't. They just sit around in the dark talking about how good the old one was.

    Ha, I think you could sub in Maple leafs into that gag as well.

    That's enough out of you. '67 was great. Or so I've heard...

    GTG I have the NHL season pass and was listening to the Leafs v Habs intro's before the game on Sunday. Steeped in the past it was, but it is a glorious one.

    Avs bounce back from a horrible game with a big comeback win in the Kings. Move up in the standings again but the teams around us have plenty of games in hand on us. We really need the break to recharge.

    The Western Conference race is going to be really exciting to watch in the second half, with only six points separating fifth and eleventh. 

    I think the teams that are currently in the top 8 will be there at the end of the season, but the order will shuffle around a lot over the next couple of months.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
