GDT: Blues @ Avalanche|Round 1, Game 2| Blues down 1-0|

[Celtic Note]

Man, I totally get that people are picking the Avs over us. I really do. But man, I was just listening to the Steve Dangle podcast going over all current the series and they just said it's not even close, we have 0 chance and spent more time in our series segment talking about the Leafs than this series.

If we lose the series, then it is what it is, but please at least earn the respect that no one is giving is. We're not even given the dignity of analysis. Analysis that concludes we have little chance is fine. But we're not even getting that. Just "0 chance, let's move on" and that's it.

So far we haven’t earned it.

I'm done here

The Avs came ready to play. May they get f***ed by TB or the Hurricanes and put their obnoxious fans in a summer long depression

ROR and Binny came ready to play. Everybody else on that team can go work on their golf game

 

[Eldon Reid]

like I said , I don't Hate this game cause they're not killing us... we just have ZERO Ozone time... they gotta figure something out here.. do what tehy did to boston.. dump out dump out dump out and counter punch.. pounce on opportunities

I agree. We don't do anything in O zone. That is more of the issue.

thomas hasnt looked like hes given a single shit since the cup run

Besides Mikkola, it is Thomas who’s disappointed me the most.

Kitten soft and too afraid to make contact.

I don’t know why he’s so scared. Can’t make him any uglier.

 

[TheDizee]

woof

 

[kreele]

Blues need a big body to plant in the AVs blue paint! Need to take away the goalies eyes and cause some havoc on their D! This is when I miss Patty Maroon!

and he would pass on a breakaway if given the chance.

Was watching Kyrou trying to leave Colorado zone after puck went the other way. Puck was across blueline going into blues zone, Colorado player held him, hooked him, and then slashed him as he tryed to leave zone. Never seen a bigger example of interference, hooking, etc. ever!!!

 

[Oberyn]

Blues aren’t fast and when you’re not fast you have to move the puck fast. Unfortunately the Blues aren’t good at that either.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

That’s soooo Andy McDonald of him.

 

[Celtic Note]

Hot take incoming in 3...2...1:

The only players I am certain are worth keeping moving forward are ROR, Perron, Kyrou and Binnington. I am not sure I have much attachment to anyone else. We really do look like a team in decline.

you actually have to GET in their paint first... then let's talk.. we can't stay in their zone more that 4 secs

that is THE biggest problem.. time in THEIR zone is time NOT in our zone

ya they will get away with whatever they want but it doesnt really matter if the blues give that kind of effort then they dont deserve to win anyways.

I’d be happier if the guys with the false positives were actually sitting out because at least I could justify that period as the Avs against the Utica Comet call ups and taxi squad

loooooooved mes some Andy Mac

[i aint Dunn yet]

[TheDizee]

Cards win Flaherty 8-0

now to watch the oilers game

 

[Oberyn]

Dunn would be pretty big for us, he has the skating and puck moving ability to match the Avs. Too bad we have Krug who skates like he’s in quicksand and turns it over constantly.

 

[Thallis]

where the f*** is dunn ? and its bullshit dp57 is still out

Dunn is still hurt and Perron actually has Covid

Once upon a time I was excited about about drafting 11th overall and little else. Turns out my instincts were correct and now I'm just annoyed we don't draft higher AND have to watch this embarrassment.

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

A water bug fan ehh?

had NO idea what we were getting with him, and I was a big Weight fan (at the time.. some of the 'stories' that have come out of the lockerroom has kinda jaded that) at the time, but man, was andy FAST and had INCREDIBLE hands.. wowzers

 

[ChicagoBlues]

loooooooved mes some Andy Mac

He was fun, but a NOTORIOUS wimp who passed instead of driving to the net or just f***ing shooting the puck.

McDonald in the playoffs passing off and not shooting? Sounds about right.

Thomas is starting to remind me of McDonald.
