GDT: Game 14: St. Louis Blues @ Calgary Flames 2/15/13 8:00 pm CST FS-MW

[Lord Helix]

Guess which team has stepped off the gas with a 3 goal lead...

 

[Mike Liut]

as soon as they built the 4-0 lead, they stopped working

 

[Celtic Note]

I had a feeling we would wilt after the 4-goal 1st period.

 

[brendan]

Are people really complaining?

wow

 

[Wiems35*]

Anyone else notice the whole Blues' bench flinch when Jackman went to clear it off the boards?

 

[RandallRitchey]

Jake Allen continues to impress. Love his game.

 

[542365]

Good play by Russell there.

 

[Mike Liut]

Jake Allen continues to impress. Love his game.

same here. Very quick

 

[Blanick]

Are people really complaining?

wow

yeah because even though we are winning we have been playing poorly for most of the 2nd and all of the 3rd so far. Complacency is what led that 5 game losing streak we all loved so much.

Most of that was due to Brian Elliot and the team not willing to work hard when he would just let in soft goals. Give the boys a break tonight. We are getting the win tonight.

 

[Mike Liut]

It's amazing how much better a team looks when a goalie makes some saves

 

[Lord Helix]

I'm just noting that they're not playing...Hitch can ***** all he wants, but can you blame them for shutting it down a bit with a big lead on a road trip?

 

[Twisted Blue]

Good to see a goalie carry the defense through their lapses.

Normally, not so much. After how poorly they played for a long stretch, I think you can.

 

[brendan]

As long as the Blues are winning...

 

[542365]

Shatty WTF?

 

[Robb_K]

Nice cover by Allen!

 

[Wiems35*]

Would love to see Perron get the hat trick.

 

[542365]

Would love to see Perron get the hat trick.

He had a good chance a few minutes ago.

 

[Blanick]

I just remember shrugging off the first loss of that homestand because we were still 6-3. While I am aware that barring a tragedy were gonna win this game I just don't want to see us fall into bad habits. Another 5 game skid could axe our entire season.

and Allen's not gonna play like that every night.

 

[Robb_K]

Quite a bit of ragged play for the last 2-3 minutes. The Blues missed two close in shots after giveaways by The Flames.

 

[Mike Liut]

Anybody give Jaskin and Rattie for Iginla for a couple cup runs?

 

[Wiems35*]

Well, you just knew they were looking to call one on us. Let's just kill it and get ready for Vancouver. We can't afford to play like we have this period against them.

 

[Wiems35*]

Anybody give Jaskin and Rattie for Iginla for a couple cup runs?

Not me.

Edit: Not saying I don't want Iginla, I just don't want to give up those 2 for him.

 

[Celtic Note]

Nope. Age is slowing Iginla down.
