A TJ Galiardi mention means a post of him getting hit in the stuff. It’s tradition.
December 19: Cale Makar once again puts his arrogance on full display against the Islanders.
Here’s is Linus Ullmark’s goal he scored on February 25. This is mentioned in this show.
Also mentioned in this show, from the same game as above, Wes McCauley drops Brad Marchand in the corner.
And it’s never a bad time to revisit Ilya Bryzgalov’s best quote (of the many he had.)

In this show, James “Tapeleg” Gralian and Jay talk about Cale Makar’s greatness according to us (as well as his teammates), who should and who shouldn’t be dropping the gloves to protect their teammates, and they also break down the moves the Avalanche made at the trade deadline. Those topics and much more Avs and hockey stuff coming at you in episode number 136 of The Avs Hockey Podcast. Buckle up for the final stretch before the playoffs, friends.

Defenseman Josh Manson is working on being strategic with the feedback he gives Cale Makar. Great stuff.

Jay thinks the honkage on this goal should have began when Cale Makar picked up the puck at the blue line.

Minnesota’s Matt Dumba went for the big hit Mikko Rantanen and Nathan MacKinnon didn’t hesitate to stick up for his teammate. MacKinnon ended up missing the next game. Should MacKinnon, Gabe Landeskog, or Nazem Kadri be fighting right now?
Shout out to Pierre Lacroix’s niece for hooking Jay’s Dad up with a couple Lacroix night warm-up pucks.

Those topics and plenty more Avs and hockey stuff coming at you in episode #134 of The Avs Hockey Podcast. Happy New Year and thanks for the support, friends!

How about some throwback hockey? We don’t get to see heavyweight bouts like this one between Kurtis MacDermid and Ryan Reaves (on December 14) very often at all anymore.

Cale Makar had a chance to end overtime on January 4 in Chicago and he did NOT disappoint. What a goal.
Too many men in Nashville on January 11th? It might be worth another look.

Check out Kukla’s Korner. It’s a good hockey resource which has been around for a very long time.
