Blues @ Nucks: Nucks stealing our men of the river edition

Digging the organ version of Take a Walk

Haha... it seems there are many great minds on this board.

Lol thought the same thing. I posted my comment, and then read 10 people saying the same thing

 

[Gullibull]

Haha nice draw Bergy!

 

[Twisted Blue]

Blues with some great pressure on that shift.

 

[Lord Helix]

Boy, was McDonald ever vigilant on that play? Good save.

 

[Vladys Gumption]

Shoot the puck Frenchie! Shoot the ****ing puck.

Seems like they are letting everything go unless its ridiculously obvious (didn't see a replay, but I'm assuming that Bergy embellished a bit to make it more obvious). I've seen slashes, holds, tons of trips, and some offsides that usually would be called. As long as they are consistent, I'm cool with it.

Darren Pang is that you? Giving us the ole nine of hearts eh?

 

[izzy]

Reaves is much more effective than other tough guys. Great boardplay.

Let's get one on this PP

Both PP's suck anyway.

 

[izzy]

Bad play by Backes...

 

[Vladys Gumption]

Schneider looks excellent tonight.

 

[Lord Helix]

That pass has to be earlier and better Perron...

 

[Celtic Note]

1st star of the game thus far: Cory Schneider

 

[Alklha]

Pathetic second PP.

 

[izzy]

Schneider is holding the nucks in this one.

Since you said this, I've noticed three separate plays that would have been interference calls 6 weeks ago.

 

[TheOrganist]

The injury was probably a blessing for McDonald.

He's skating well.

 

[brendan]

Blues piling on the shots, will hopefully break through at some point

 

[Vladys Gumption]

Redden looks terrible

 

[izzy]

This game is going to get intense.

 

[542365]

Pretty good period. We should probably have one by now with all the great chances we've had. Combination of some bad choices and great saves by Schneider.

 

[TheOrganist]

I remember when Vancouver was the best transition team in the West.

They look brutal.

 

[Twisted Blue]

Not quite playoff hockey, but close. Fun first period to watch.

 

[EastonBlues22]

Shot discrepancy aside, that period was ugly as hell. Tons of broken plays in the defensive and neutral zones, very few pucks getting in deep, and almost no clean puck movement. Ugly, ugly hockey.
