i know this. yet you people continue to claim Carter was picking a fight with a midget somehow and that's why he was doubled up on.

Well he was doubled up on because C.Miller and Randall usually stick up for players like that, especially one of our main weapons like Krug. I would expect the same thing if the situation was reversed...the issue is wth happened to Zucker. I guess when word of the injury is out we will know better what caused it, if it was Beleskey's fault he should be have a meeting with the league, it was a slash regardless of how soft it seemed.

as pissed as i am, if they suspend him it will be for the result, not the action and as a lot of slashes that look like that are thrown, not sure they'd want to do that.

Getzlaf with his patented no look pass to the other team.

He and Vanek must train together.

I understand it's a routine slash but there shouldn't really be a routine slash. If the NHL wants clean hard hitting hockey with more goals cracking down on the subtle **** like that and the picks is a start. Liked Beleskey's game but it had to be more than a tap if it was his doing and not a cramp or ice quality issue.

we've seen this scenario before, so we're assuming it was the stick like it was last time it happened. Ohlunds was much harder though IIRC.

Blues have perfected the 5 on 3 PK....my god this team loves to kill penalties....smh

The Buffalo PP ranks 3rd in the nhl. Best way to stop it is to put them on a 5 on 3 lol. 0 for the season and counting

i know this. yet you people continue to claim Carter was picking a fight with a midget somehow and that's why he was doubled up on. edit: it's neither here nor there, as I really don't care about anything other than the slash. I believe i got off on a tangent when someone seemed to imply Carter was gooning it up vs Krug to distract from (or justify) the later slash.

Just about if not every player on every team in the NHL dishes out slashes like that every single game.

Is it a slash?

Sure.

Crappy outcome?

Absolutely.

But do people really think Beleskey was aiming for the unprotected sweet spot of the knee?

C'mon now.

That slash is so routinely redundant people cannot possibly think it was dirty.

 

[gallagt01]

Jake Allen has been great for STL tonight.

I don't think anyone is disagreeing with you.

 

[Ace]

While I have a feeling I know how this ot will go...really impressive fight back from the hole Ennis put them in from the Sabres tonight. Thought the last 2 periods were real high end quality work against a great team

 

[Puckstop40]

That 3v3 was insane between Blues/Sabres.

It was awesome

 

[Ace]

Ennis might have to go away.

Not gonna lie, that was hilarious

 

[Bread and Circuses]

I don't think anyone is disagreeing with you.

I was just trying to clarify that I was not justifying the slash/injury because of the scrum just prior & IMHO I don't think it was a malicious play because of the prior events in the game, that's all.

 

[TLEH]

how is that a goal by steen thats so dumb

 

[Ace]

No Eichel in the shootout. Had to let Ennis go.

Hey Disco Dan...you're fired

 

[EichHart]

I blame Ennis and Gionta for that loss. We outplayed St. Louis quite handily.

It's in the rulebook that all goal reviews go against Buffalo. He could have hit it 4 times and the result would be the same

For sure, Buffalo looked good tonight. We were lucky to get 2 points

Yep, Blues hung up the "do not disturb" sign tonight. Buffalo took it to them. That 3 on 3 was heart attack filled...my goodness

 

[TLEH]

looked pretty obvious that the puck was stopped and then kicked in or either hit with his stick again

 

[Ace]

Heh...thanks to coach's challenges and ot/shootout incompetence the Sabres have lost 3 in a row despite playing hockey no one dreamed possible the last 2 years. Amazing.

Not really amazing though...Gionta kills everything and if he misses something Ennis kills it for him. One of them is always out there.
