Ekupheleni kukaNovemba, iAvalanche yayikwimidlalo eli-13 apho yayidlala yonke imihla kangangeentsuku ezingama-25. Kusisiqabu kunye nomthwalo. Iinyanga ezimbini zokuqala zexesha lonyaka bezingazinzanga. Ukuqhelana nenkqubo yeshedyuli yokwenyani ye-NHL okokuqala kuyimfuneko.
Kodwa le nkqubo inzima, kwaye i-Avs (18-11-2) ifumene iziphumo zayo. Ngeli xesha, baphulukene nesihlanu kwimidlalo yabo emithandathu yokuqala ngo--14 umahluko wenjongo kunye nokulimala okuninzi.
Emva koko bazilungisa, baphumelela imidlalo emihlanu kwemithandathu elandelayo. Ngaphezu koko, iColorado iya isiba sempilweni.
Ngethuba lokuya kwiholide, ndidlan' indlebe nabadlali abaninzi be-Avalanche ukuze ndifumanise ukuba yintoni abayikhumbula kakhulu ukususela ebuntwaneni babo. Ayimangalisi into yokuba uninzi lwaqaphela izixhobo zehoki. Emva koko uMikko Rantanen.
1. UMartin Kaut uye wafumana elinye ithuba, kodwa sisiphumo somonde weqela xa licela umngeni. Xa i-Avalanche idinga uhlengahlengiso lwe-roster ngo-Dec. 8, banokuhambisa umdlali omncinci kwi-AHL ngaphandle kokunqatshelwa. Endaweni yoko, ulingo lwayekwa - emngciphekweni wokuphulukana nalo ngaphandle kokubuyisa nabani na. Ithumela umyalezo ocacileyo kakhulu.
“Sibone intsebenzo entle kakhulu kuye kwipesenti encinci yemidlalo,” utshilo uJared Bednar ngelo xesha. “…Umahluko phakathi kwabafana abadlala apha nalapha kukuba… bakuba bewufumene lo mdlalo, yinto encinci kakhulu yokutenxa kuwo. Baza kudlala qho ebusuku. Yizise. (Vavanya) ingxaki yokuzinza. Umdlalo ozolileyo. Umdlalo ozolileyo. Umdlalo olungileyo”.
Inkundla yakwamkela ukwala, yaye kwiiveki ezimbini kamva wabuyela eDenver. UBednar uthe kungenxa yomlo phakathi kukaCharles Hudon noJean-Luc Foudy. “Ukutshintsha kwabadlali rhoqo akulunganga,” utshilo. "Kodwa nathi asinakubukela abafana bedlala kakuhle kakhulu kumdlalo omnye emva koko bawe phantsi bamkele."
2. Kwiveki ephelileyo, i-Sportico ibike ukuba i-NHL icinga ukuhlaziya ishedyuli, eya kubona "abaphikisi belizwe" badlala ngokuphindaphindiweyo, kunokuba iphethini yangoku yeqela ngalinye elidlala kwisixeko ngasinye kwixesha ngalinye. Andikho apha ukuze sabelane ngendlela efanayo ekungekho mntu ufuna ukuyibona. Bendifuna nje ukukhomba ukuba esi sisiphakamiso sobudenge seAvalanche.
Amanye amaqela amathathu kuphela e-NHL aphakathi kweemayile ezingama-800. Iingqekembe zikufutshane. Isikhululo seenqwelomoya sasePhoenix sikwiikhilomitha ezingama-602 ukusuka kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya saseDenver. ILas Vegas ineminyaka engama-628 ubudala. ISt. Louis ineminyaka engama-772 ubudala. Akukho bakhuphisani bejografi apha.
3. URantanen uchaza isicwangciso esinomdla se-3 ku-3 emva komdlalo wesine wexesha elongezelelweyo le-Aws kwiiveki ezimbini, khumbula: "Ngokucacileyo i-draw yokuqala ibaluleke kakhulu. Imizuzwana engama-30 yokuqala yibambe i-puck kwaye ungayivumeli ukuba itshintshe. Kuba ukuleqa abantu imizuzwana ye-30 kuya kukudinisa. Emva koko ungenza indawo kwindawo ye-O ibe ne-4 entsha kunye nabantu abatsha kwi-ice yesibini. Ngu-3v3 ndiyazi ukuba ngamanye amaxesha kubonakala kuyadika, kodwa uzama ukuphumelela umdlalo.
U-Evan Rodriguez: "Xa ndisengumntwana, ndafaka i-Roller Coaster Tycoon kwikhompyutheni yam. Oku kwakuxa ndandimncinci kakhulu. Ndayidlala ... yinto endihlala ndiyikhumbula ukususela ebuntwaneni bam."
U-Alex Newhook: “Iya kuba yimpendulo ebalekayo kuba ndingumdlali wehoki, kodwa ndikhumbula ukuba ndinentonga eyayindifanela ngokukhethekileyo. mhlawumbi intonga yam yokuqala eyimbumba.”
ULogan O'Connor: Umnatha weHockey. Kwaye intonga yehoki. Kum, iphambili kuluhlu.”
UMikko Rantanen: “Imbethi-manqindi. Rhoqo ngeKrisimesi ndisengumntwana, ndandithenga iibhulukhwe ezimfutshane ze-boxer kunye neekawusi… iikawusi ezishinyeneyo zikamakhulu.
