Short side backhand goal? Come on Jake! Allen isn't a small goalie but he made himself look like Darren Pang on that goal. From that angle Allen had room to be "taller" in the net.

Whenever someone goes "It's not Allen's fault the team plays like shit in front of him" I want to point out a silly goal like that one in a game were we scored to get momentum back and have had some good offensive setups going. It's a momentum killer every damned time.

All he had to do was stay square, ALL (well except Allen) NHL goalies do it. Angle was so close and tight it would not have gone over his shoulder. f***ing BS.

We are back to the old Blues. Can't score to save their lives. Jake playing shakey again.

Figures that their only goal is from a D man coming back from a broken arm.

Moreover, its at home. This team likes to crap on its hometown fans.

Replay just showed how bad that goal was, he didn’t seal the post then got beat over his glove. Defenseman pushed the player wide, no passing threat. Bad positioning.
Dunn was beaten because of the late change. He made contact with the puck, but he was coming in at pretty much the same angle. It pushed the puck forward. Jake wasn't in good position though.

Sad home ice game once again. Will we see some serious intensity to start the 3rd? I think not, but hope so.

We must figure out a way out from under Allen’s contract. Give up a pick or two if we have to.

Starting to believe that Allen should not be considered a starting NHL goaltender, I don’t care about his size or athleticism, he just doesn’t mentally play the game correctly. He doesn’t understand or play shot angles correctly. Bernie trying to talk about how good the shot was, no it was a routine NHL backhand shot on at the short side. Didn’t beat him top shelf, just a routine shot at the short side!
