GDT: Game 20/82 Wild @ Blues 7PM CST ESPN+/HULU

Deflected off Walker, not sure what Binny is supposed to do

Yeah I saw that on the replay but that does not absolve Binnington of all fault there. He was cheating off the post hard there. From where that shot was their should have been far less daylight on the short side.

Overall not Binningtons best game tonight.

I'll go to war with anyone saying Binnington isn't a good goalie but he has not been up to his standard this year. Both he and Hofer have given up way too many stoppable goals.

I hate to say it because I love the guy; but Schenn is toast.
He really needs to go the Marian Hossa route and find a reason to retire before he completely destroys his reputation here.

Schenn is done. It's not just that the physical skills have declined. His mental game has been terrible this season. He's making mistakes that a captain shouldn't be making.

first goal was soft also

he needs a week off.

Faulk absolutely sucks. He loves to talk a big game to the media about how our losses are “unacceptable” but he does very little on the ice to help anything.

Now that Krug might become LTIRetired, jettisoning Faulk and his contract should be Army’s next priority on the blueline in the offseason.

While I wouldn't be surprised if he is moved, I wouldn't be surprised if he stays either. We are severely lacking in RHD, but, it would be nice if we could get someone younger and a better fit.

 

[Snubbed4Vezina]

He's a lousy captain too. worst since brewer and drake.

We really should have went with no C and just all A's.

Better captain, Brayden Schenn or Shayne Corson?

So glad Thomas is back. But Man we really need our Three top defenseman to be better. Tex needs to be scratched next game for M. Joseph. Not a big fan of Holloway and Bolduc getting less than 10 minutes of ice time.

Parayko and Suter have had a couple really rough games recently.

A high profile coach, another top 6 C, and getting Broberg/Leddy back would do wonders for this roster lmao

Broberg and a top pairing vet D-man and you're onto something.

Parayko and Suter have had a couple really rough games recently.

It's because they are getting stuck in the same spot Leddy-Parayko were last season. They are getting severely overworked defensively. Part of that is injuries to Leddy and Broberg, but a part of it is Faulk has been terrible.

corson got his teams to the playoffs

schenn is in year 2 and the team stinks even worse every new year. might as well give Kyrou the captaincy, would make me tune in every night to see that alone. couldnt be worse than schenn.

Agreed. Another solid game for Bolduc, I actually like him and Holloway together. Texier has been frustrating, had reasonably high hopes for him this year but so far it hasn't been pretty.

4th line is getting over played IMO. Give some of their shifts to Bolduc - Holloway - Joseph.

 

[TK 421]

It should have been Rob Thom.

Edit: And they better fix that as soon as Schenn's gone.

Blues 1st is currently 5th....

 

[shpongle falls]

Unlucky bounce off Walker is the difference in this game. Liked the effort overall tonight nice to see them get more shots on goal the past few games.

Joseph should be in for Tex. Joseph, Holly, and Bolduc would be a good line. Bolduc seemed to play well in limited minutes tonight, would like to see him get more shooting opportunities.

Nice to see Scottie get another goal, I always believed in the talent he has.

So nice to have Thomas back especially taking important faceoffs.

Corey Schueneman has continued to impress me, never seems to get burned defensively and makes some sick passes out there, good IQ.

With that result the Blues fall to 5th worst points percentage. Given up the sixth most goals and scored the 6th fewest. Neither goalie has played as well as they did last year and our injury luck hasn’t been nearly as good. Recipe for a real tough season. Tank should be on IMO. Move the pieces you can near the deadline and play the kids who are borderline ready.

 

[LogosBlue]

the jets are the best and the sharks are the worst, it's a decisive outcome in west side story

Buccigross genuinely likes the Blues, the city, Binnington, and adores the uniform. And he sees a lot of subtle things when he calls a game. I appreciate him

Bucci is the best.

I agree with most of this, especially about Scheuneman, he made a couple plays last night that were very noticeable to me, hope he can keep up the solid play until we get healthier.

Bucci is the best.

Love Bucci, he's great

Tough game. Seemed fairly even. We fought back to tie it twice. Couple thoughts ..

I don't understand the plan with Bolduc. His underlying numbers and eye test are good. Only 5 points but in no minutes. He us #2 on the team in points per 60 and top 4 in most advanced metrics. He's one if the few + players and we only play him 8 minutes. Holloway was also used ridiculously little.

Perunovich is lucky we got injuries. His NHL career was likely over. 8th D, had shown nothing. We lose LD1, LD2 and LD4. Suddenly he is playing top 4 minutes and not looking bad. No clue what happened but good on him. Hopefully for him he can keep it up. And its a zero sum game. Poor timing for POJ with injuries. He is probably now on the outside looking in again when healthy.

 

[TheDizee]

Yea Perunovich is one of the bright spots thus far this season. Hopefully he can keep improving.
