didn't see the whole game ..just really the third..but i'm glad the avs are in the west. like maybe i'm wrong in thinking the leafs are a quick team? because there were points where the avs looked like they were double the speed of the leafs. i have no love for roy..but wow..the avs are kind of amazing

at least one of these fans does not look impressed with, the fourth line, or maybe its Deon and his weak game right now. Where has he gone?.

You must of been watching a different game then. The Leafs played a good road game and second of a B2B. They were not out shot awfully as normal. There was secondary scoring, and IMO the 4th line played well. Bodie needs to stay up when Clarkson gets back. As much as I respect Orr once Bolland is back, he should never play, unless we are playing BUF.

Not just back to back but 3 games in 4 nights with 2 travel days. I really expected a letdown game in one of the 2 back to backs after the emotional Habs game on Saturday. Really surprised me that they found a way to win. Sure it comes down to goaltending, Varlamov wasn't that great and Reimer was, but it's a win. Good teams win games like that.
Really good game last night. I started drifting in the second period and then watched some of the 3rd when I didn't fall asleep.
This team is better without Clarkson in the lineup. It's something else to me that Orr has kept himself in the NHL. The guy can't even skate, he looks like an ankle bender out there.

The Leafs were pretty bad to start the game and were really sitting back in the 3rd, but, they were clearly the better team for the other half of the game. I suppose I can understand a lower energy 3rd tonight, with it being the 2nd of back to backs on the road, and with the thinner air in Denver. It wasn't a masterpiece or anything, but, it wasn't a train wreck either.

Indoors is irrelevant. There's less oxygen in the air at high altitude, inside or outside.

It's pretty much mentioned in articles involving a team every time they play in Colorado. Definitely not the first time I've heard it mentioned. Google "Colorado + thin air" and there's tons of mentions of it.
I don't know the scientific reason behind it, but I don't think being inside or outside of an arena changes the fact that you're at a higher altitude where there is less oxygen.

Unless the place is generating oxygen it'd be the same I'd think.
It's not just while playing either. The time spent with less oxygen while in Colorado before the game would also effect their energy as they'd be breathing less oxygen.
This is what the scientician has to say:
When we breathe in air at sea level, the atmospheric pressure of about 14.7 pounds per square inch (1.04 kg. per cm.2) causes oxygen to easily pass through selectively permeable lung membranes into the blood. At high altitudes, the lower air pressure makes it more difficult for oxygen to enter our vascular systems. The result is hypoxia , or oxygen deprivation. Hypoxia usually begins with the inability to do normal physical activities, such as climbing a short flight of stairs without fatigue. Other early symptoms of "high altitude sickness" include a lack of appetite, vomiting, headache, distorted vision, fatigue, and difficulty with memorizing and thinking clearly. In serious cases, pneumonia-like symptoms (pulmonary edema ) due to hemorrhaging in the lungs and an abnormal accumulation of fluid around the brain (cerebral edema ) develop. Pulmonary and cerebral edema usually results in death within a few days if there is not a return to normal air pressure levels. There is also an increased risk of heart failure due to the added stress placed on the lungs, heart, and arteries at high altitudes.

I don't need to read that nerd's analytics of oxygen, some guy who's probably never taken a breath in his life. I actually watch and breathe the air.
