time to blow it up ?

It is blown up.

 

[Bye Bye Blueston]

We had a 6-3 advantage for a short time.

Oops. That was 1st period.

We started strong, but just completely outclassed after that.

This is year 4 of the blow up lol

Good road game against a really strong team. Final score isn’t really indicative of the play overall, but indicative of the talent disparity. Perfect result. Played well, lost in regulation.

 

[TheDizee]

wtf we needed to let in 4 more goals

 

[Mike Liut]

4-0 loss is my guess

Sorry, didn’t see us scoring 1. My bad

 

[Reality Czech]

We started strong, but just completely outclassed after that.

Even with our full healthy roster, we'd be a heavy underdog against the Canes. 2nd best team in the league by points percentage. Predicable outcome.

Can't feel too bad about going 1-1 against them on the year.

There are only 3 forwards with a +1 or better on the team.

Theres also only only forward on the team pacing to have over 50 points.

Blues weren't great roster to begin with, but injuries killing us:

"In season" MGL through 16 November (i.e. excluding any absences that started from Game 1 like krug)

49 STL
42 NYI
40 COL
31 VGK
29 CBJ
24 OTT
23 BUF FLA
22 PHI SJS
21 PIT
19 WSH
18 DET MIN
17 CHI SEA
16 NJD
15 CGY
13 ANA CAR UTA
12 MTL
11 LAK TOR
10 DAL VAN
8 NSH
7 BOS
5 EDM
4 TBL
3 WPG
0 NYR

This doesn't reflect the value of the roster spot where the injury occurred. The Blues have high number of injury days, and they're at our top pairing and top center, among others. There's bound to be a negative impact.

There are only 3 forwards with a +1 or better on the team.

Theres also only only forward on the team pacing to have over 50 points.

Can’t imagine certain people will guess who is in both categories

For a team that had little expectations -- they are having a hard time meeting them.

They either need to commit to playing him and letting him learn on the fly or just send him down. I hardly think benching him after playing 10minutes with Sunny after sitting out is best development path.

How you scratch Bolduc after the game he had in Boston is beyond me. Walker's game tying goal against Boston only happens because of a good play by Bolduc to get the red line and get the puck deep. He was good all game, and his advanced stats were stellar. I really don't know what more the coaches want from Bolduc given his current minutes and linemates.

Anyway, good effort today against the canes. Tough luck loss, way she goes.
