GDT: Game 36/82 Blues @ Detroit 6PM CST FDSNMW

[TheOrganist]

Blues must feel like they’re playing a junior team after dealing with Tampa and Florida. Detroit is soft as hell.

 

[Snubbed4Vezina]

Absolute BOMB from Holloway.

 

[StLewis11]

Wow, what a blast by Holloway!

 

[Linkens Mastery]

Also great pick by Fowler to start it all

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Been really enjoying how much more willing the team has been at taking one timers

 

[Xerloris]

So how long has Detroit been rebuilding?

 

[Snubbed4Vezina]

We need to start firing for rebounds on these odd man rushes because attempting passes isn't getting the job done.

 

[StlBigFly]

That period felt like the fastest period of all time.

 

[542365]

Great period.

They really blow. They need a Tom Wilson or something equivalent. No jam. Easy to play against.

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Going on a decade at this point

Yeah, that was at least 4 times odd man rush was botched by bad pass attempt

2016 or 2017? About 8 years.

 

[Reality Czech]

Wondering why Faksa is out, after playing vs. Florida. Maybe not 100%?

Assume you heard them address it during the game but I'm guessing his cut got a little irritated or needed more time to heal. Nothing major. He's been a nice little find for us this year. Nothing special but pretty much prototype of a 4c.

Pretty nice period from the boys. Gotta keep this inferior Detroit team from staying in this game. Will always have a soft spot for Vladi though.

When did Zetterberg and Kronwall retire?

Yeah, I did hear that from JK, but thanks

Why doesn’t Vitale do all the road games these days out of curiosity

Maybe I’m wrong but iirc they said he was going to the tv side for some number of games this season and cam was the replacement for those games. Unsure if it’s all season or even if my memory is working.

I see. Ya, you’re right about Janssen. I forgot he was the fill-in guy. Just kinda weird Vitale doesn’t do a lot of road games. Who is he, Mike Shannon?

 

[MissouriMook]

Great road period, but (as others have pointed out) it is frustrating how poorly they are executing on their odd man rush chances. It should be 3-0 or better at the intermission. Good teams cash in on these opportunities.

 

[StLewis11]

Texier looked pretty good in the first period; the guy does have some skills, just needs to be consistent at playing smart

Well, we aren't really a good team right now. Soooooo.

 

[Xerloris]

we're way ahead of them at this point. I'd take our team and prospects over theirs any day.

 

[Bobby Orrtuzzo]

Tex!!

 

[Linkens Mastery]

Holy hell what a shot
