[Linkens Mastery]

Blues and Wild do not like each other. Love it

 

[542365]

Huge saves by Husso at the beginning and the end of the period.

 

[m1a2lt]

Barby laughing at all the sticks hitting him helmetless head! Love it.

 

[Bye Bye Blueston]

Excellent period by Husso. For his first ever playoff start, couldn't have asked for better.

 

[Joshuar56]

How we feeling rn?

Foot on the gas peddle.

 

[LBlues24]

Foot on the gas boys. We’re having a tough time getting out of our own zone, need to be better there

 

[BlueDream]

Good start, boys. 1st period recap:

DP and ROR scorin.

Ville on lock down.

Schenn crushin nephews.

 

[BlueOil]

minnesota having more sucess in the scrums than during the play, might be trying more there too

 

[ChicagoBlues]

No slack
No bad habits

Hopefully Chief is reminding Husso to mind his posts.

 

[execwrite1]

Trouble in Paradise over in the Wild board. They're ready to jump ship.

 

[Louie the Blue]

Good god Husso. Come on Parayko, settle it down.

Yeah. I'm not gonna complain how Husso's played since he hasn't let up any goals and they're up 2-0, but I feel like he's going to give 2-3 WTF goals this series based off how loose he's playing.

At least he isn't a ticking time bomb with playing the puck like Allen.

 

[Zezel’s Pretzels]

That was a fun period; 11 more of those please

 

[TheOrganist]

I f’ing love Schenn. Two bad ass hits.

And a classic 55 turnover that almost cost us.

Good period though.

 

[mk80]

Good period overall! Some good PKs, and the PP goal shows our special teams are ready! Husso was great!

We started getting more pressure in their end toward the end, but we were hemmed in for a good stretch after the Bortuzzo penalty for a good few minutes. The Pks didn't help that.

Ans wow Fluery is serving up some good rebounds!

 

[Stupendous Yappi]

Leddy is paired with Parayko, or am I imagining things. JR’s practice lines showed him with Bortuzzo and Colton with Scandella.

 

[fishsandwichpatrol]

Can't argue with the scoreline but we've been quite sloppy. Husso has come to play though so that's nice

 

[AVictoryDive]

Oreilly and Perron heating up is going to be great for this team. Keep it up!

 

[Puck Luck]

From what I’ve watched this year I completely agree. He’s one of those players that you don’t realize how important they are until they’re out. RNH is like that for the Oilers. Different styles of course, but keystone pieces, nonetheless.

Oh i think it’s plenty noticeably how important he is when he’s missing. He brings that toughness that other guys feed off of. He was one Army’s finest acquisitions

 

[Robb_K]

Husso made a great save near the end of the period.

Great 1st Period by The Blues, staving off The Wild's heavy push. Husso has been very good against some very good scoring chances by The Wild shooters. Their forecheck has been very tough for The Blues to handle. I hope The Blues can move the puck forward more easily the rest of the game.

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

Trouble in Paradise over in the Wild board. They're ready to jump ship.

lol as borat say : very nice

 

[Chet Manly]

Wild are a bunch of bitches.

How you gonna go after FAULK of all players?!

 

[AVictoryDive]

Leddy is paired with Parayko, or am I imagining things. JR’s practice lines showed him with Bortuzzo and Colton with Scandella.

Scandella didn’t play so they added in Mikkola and switched Leddy with Parayko

 

[Louie the Blue]

That was a fun period; 11 more of those please

How about 47?

 

[TheDizee]

minnesota having more sucess in the scrums than during the play, might be trying more there too

And if the refs do their jobs, that will lead to more PP goals for us.

Scandella isn’t playing though.
