My favorite day of the year! LET’S GO BLUES!!!

 

[Vektor]

Where is everyone at? First game of the year!

 

[BlueDream]

Excited to see our new faces in the lineup tonight.

Avs are icing a pretty weak roster. We need to win this game.

Yeah I absolutely agree. It’s looking like they’re playing a man short tonight. No MacKinnon, Landeskog, or Nichushkin up front.

 

[DangledUpinBlues]

's go blues

Exactly! A must win! Start off the season right with a road win against a shorthanded Colorado lineup! Let's see Neighbours get his first NHL goal!

 

[BrokenFace]

I'm calling that Buchnevich will have multiple points with at least 1 goal tonight. Casual fans are gonna like him quickly.

 

[Bobby Orrtuzzo]

Boys….this has been the longest short offseason ever. We’re finally f***in back!

That being said….I will be missing this one cuz I’m out of town.

 

[Mike Liut]

Is there a better 4 lines in the nhl than the Blues?

 

[tomin]

LGB! So excited to see this team. So many questions....Colt, Vova, Thomas, Buch, Krug. All different questions but all very exciting to watch.

bagdad dan is on the blues broadcast now

Colorado, Boston, Vegas, Florida, Tampa

Yes Tampa. Boston and Florida are questionable.

Lol at Colorado and Vegas. Look at the Avs’ lineup tonight, they have zero depth.

 

[TheDizee]

lets get some goals and take some runs at some of those punks who ran at us in the playoffs.

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

Yes Tampa. Boston and Florida are questionable.

Lol at Colorado and Vegas. Look at the Avs’ lineup tonight, they have zero depth.

Burakovsky - Kadri - Rantanen
Jost - Compher - Ranta
Helm - Megna - O'Connor
Matteau - Sikura

yikes !

 

[Thallis]

Yes Tampa. Boston and Florida are questionable.

Lol at Colorado and Vegas. Look at the Avs’ lineup tonight, they have zero depth.

Colorado has 5 of their forwards out tonight. Their healthy lineup is comfortably better than ours top to bottom. Their top line and 4th line blow ours out of the water, and our middle 6 can only compete if Tarasenko is a valuable player again

How do you judge best 4 lines though? Is it who has the best bottom 6 because they are deep? Or does Colorado,Edmonton, and Boston get credit for absolutely outstanding top lines.

That's a joke. They have a top line and nothing else.

 

[AjaxManifesto]

I hate these meaningless preseason games....

 

[TheDizee]

That's a joke. They have a top line and nothing else.

yes theyve always been a one line team, even back to the sakic days

i love the media hyping them up every year b/c their team has shown they choke harder than the blues/caps/sharks combined pre 2018. Refalanche are the new Ref Jose Sharks and deep down everyone knows it. they make the second round then choke in glorious fashion.

 

[Majorityof1]

Perron is in according to pre-game show. Neighbours is the 12th forward tonight.

Saad-ROR- Perron
Kyrou - Schenn -Buch
Neal - Thomas - Tarasenko
Neighbours -Bozak - Barby
