Half-Assed GDT: Broons at Blooz - 7pm Central

[Linkens Mastery]

And the reason for the two OT losses is cuz you didn't streak during the 2nd intermission.

Haha. I mean one of those was the game Gillies started.

 

[BrokenFace]

I am as unconcerned with our 4+ goal scoring streak ending as I am with how mediocre we are at 3v3 with the playoffs around the corner.

 

[Robb_K]

How did The Blues not take possession when The Bruins made their 3 errors in a row???

They must have really been gassed, to not be able to jump on those loose pucks. And The Blues lost a chance to keep their slim lead over The Wild because of that. Well, at least they got a point.

 

[tfriede2]

Can’t win them all. Still have the point streak, Thomas streak, Buchnevich streak, etc

 

[AjaxManifesto]

Could have gone the other way when BOS botched that OT pass near their goalie

Yeah cuz 3v3 play is HUGE in the playoffs

That’s his point - he said he was unconcerned.

Was wondering the same thing, but then thought of what @Mike Liut posted earlier; 4 games in 6 days.

Earlier in April, the Blues had another 4 games in 6 days grind and still another 4 games in 6 days grind the week prior to that at the end of March.

Vladi couldn't get to those pucks as he should have, but the boys might be a little exhausted. Plus, we just started another 4 games in 6 days grind with this game, SJS on Thursday and a b2b this weekend.

Buckle up!

 

[Bye Bye Blueston]

These Boston announcers are pretty good. They’re doing a great job highlighting St Louis and not coming across as too biased.

If you were watching ESPN+ it was national telecast tonight. Those were neutral announcers.

 

[Bye Bye Blueston]

I don't like Dominic Moore's style of dress.

Okay grandpa.

 

[Bye Bye Blueston]

Why couldn't we have a choice of The Home or Away broadcast crews?

ESPN national game. We have been on a handful of those.

 

[CaliforniaBlues310]

That’s his point - he said he was unconcerned.

Whoops I misread that lmao my apologies

Not confident in starting the playoffs on the road.

Eh, it's against Minnesota...

 

[ChicagoBlues]

I say all the time to people, make these and the powder blue retros the full time look. We would be best dressed in the league easily!

And that's not to say our normal home and road jerseys are bad, just that the retros are so amazing!

Looks like the sweater style they wore tonight is not for sale.

 

[Ridge1982]

Playoffs are a different animal

 

[ChicagoBlues]

Okay grandpa.

He's the one who looks like a grandpa.

Starting on the road is way better. All you need is a split and then you shorten the series to a best of 5 with 3/5 at home.

Home ice only really matters if you get to a G7 and I don't see a Wild-Blues series going to 7 anyways.

 

[AjaxManifesto]

I think MINNY takes home ice.

Too many botched games mid season

Yes. Although they SHOULD already have been exhausted on the past weekend, they sucked it up, and were burning mostly adrenalin against Division foes, Minnesota and Nashville. So, once they played an Eastern Conference team, they could relax a bit, and doing that allowed the effects of the exhaustion to show up.

It's just like when people that already should have died, hang on by sheer will, waiting for their overseas child or grandchild to say goodbye to them, or to see their great grandchild born, and then die a few minutes, an hour, or a day later, or die a day or a week after their spouse dies.

Well, I held out for a Stanley Cup Championship and I'm STILL alive!!

That means only one thing; the Blues will win more Cups before it is my time to go.

LAK/ANA is a huge game, if you're a Canucks fan.

Yeppp. We’ve played 16 games in the past 29 days, while having 2 days off between games only once. Thankfully we’ve gone 12-2-2 in that stretch.
