Just look better than we did on Saturday and I'm happy.

 

[Stealth JD]

Play it like a scrimmage and give the bottom-6 players top-6 minutes. Just stay healthy and in game shape; no need to do much of anything else.

I'm excited to get a look at Byfield and the coming core of the Kings.

 

[TarasenkosForearm]

Where is Kostin?

 

[Thallis]

Where is Kostin?

Possibly still in quarantine

 

[Sgt Schultz]

This could be a real snoozer. I've seen the Kings several times over the last couple of weeks, and they looked like they were somewhere between disinterested and sleep walking even before they were eliminated. They had brief stretches where they were physical, but that was about the only life I have seen in them.

That said, they have a habit of giving us fits. I am glad this game means nada.

 

[mk80]

Possibly still in quarantine

Probably that is the case.

Let's get back to some winning hockey tonight to get some momentum going into likely our first round meeting with Vegas.

 

[CaliforniaBlues310]

I actually get to go tonight, and I’m very excited despite it being a meaningless game.

 

[GoBluz24]

Krug in tonight. Not sure who's coming out.

Binnington

 

[MissouriMook]

Barbashev - O'Reilly - Perron

Been waiting a while to see that combo instead of Blais or Sanford on LW. Let's hope Barby is feeling well enough after getting dinged up on Saturday to run with it.

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

Where is Kostin?

Berube said he might get in the last game of the season (wed I believe)

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

over/under on when Sanford and Barby flip lines.. go...

 

[Stupendous Yappi]

Where is Kostin?

Berube had previously said they expect him to be available for the last game. Still in quarantine.

 

[Stupendous Yappi]

What’s wrong with Dunn. Supposedly not close to returning? Is he likely to be available for the playoffs?

really good question.. I haven't even heard the obligatory "lower/upper body" thing

edit: not easy to find, but the blues site says upper body.. fwtw

 

[MissouriMook]

What’s wrong with Dunn. Supposedly not close to returning? Is he likely to be available for the playoffs?

One of the writers (don't remember if it was Thomas or JR) mentioned today that Berube expects that the other three injured players (Tarasenko, Dunn, Blais) will get one more game in before the playoffs, but he was non-committal on that. Sounds like all three are probable once the "real season" begins.

Driving home on 101 ESPN they said Berube said that "he expects all of Tarasenko, Blais, and Dunn, to be back before playoffs, but we'll see"

 

[AjaxManifesto]

Calm before the storm....

Enjoy it...

It will soon become a test of nerves and heart strength...

[BlueSeal]

Chief, why aren't you resting our boys? Call up the taxi squad and give Colt, ROR and Binny the day off. Wtf.

 

[JoshFromMO]

Back to back to back 9 pm starts is whack

Don't forget the liver....

 

[i aint Dunn yet]
