GDT: Game 49/82 Blues Vs VGK 7PM CST FDSNMW

100 percent agree with you I would never root for the preds or the hawks if God forbid Saskatoon happened…..but In fairness outside of one (Highly Disputed)World Series Win by KC. KC and STL just have no rivalry.

Weirdly the few times I have been to KC though they hate STL…sort of how we dislike Chicago but they never can say why. It is certainly not sports related must just be a big brother thing idk.

I never watch the NFL screw em.

I stopped watching the NFL after the Rams left (FU Stan Kroenke, Roger Goodell and Clark Hunt) for about 6 years, but I gradually started watching again

I have the same feeling for the Cheets and Royals that I have for the Bears, Cubs and Hawks

The Rams. Boring. I'm not a NFL fan. There are so few games that the financial stakes on each game are astronomical. Former mob guys have come out and spoken about it. "So and so" has big money on this outcome, so we need you to throw at least 2 interceptions and miss a few tackles. f*** the NFL.

I'm out in Arizona and I don't care about the Cardinals at all. Kyler Murray is a dickhead and he is stupid. He's one of those tools and no toolbox guys. He's too dumb to be a NFL QB.

On the other hand, it has been cool going to Diamondbacks games. Not really a fan, but still fun to have a team to go see when it's not hotter than hell. The Suns have been successful lately, but the NBA is a joke.

At least I got to go to a handful or two of Coyotes games over the years and even got to see the Blues last game ever at Gila just a few rows behind their bench. I think the Blues won in OT.

the Diamondbacks stadium is pretty cool, also loved Alice Coopers' restaurant (think it is closed now)
Troon North golf course sucks, TCP Phoenix is fun to play

As this season goes on, I'd really like to see Broberg out there at the end of games where we need a goal. At this juncture we're not really a playoff team, we have like a 5% chance to make it according to most oddsmakers. Faulk is a respected veteran, and I get that, but it's time to start giving Broberg a chance with the game on the line. We need him to continue growing, and he's not going to if he doesn't get the reps.

I agree. It's probably not quite this bad, but it seems like 95% of the time the offense dies on Faulk's stick. I don't see the point in having him out there if we need a goal.

I guess those of us on DirectTV are not going to see much since we missed the whole period.

Thankfully there’s Kerbs and Joey!

Sorry, a day late here, I went to watch my DTV streaming recording and it recorded 3 hours of a blue screen with the Fan Duel logo and underneath that, text that read "Alt 9". Did you figure out what happened? Was it only DTV that this happened on?

 

[MissouriMook]

I am absolutely gob smacked by the amount dark green on Faulk's player card. Certainly does not meet my eye test.

He got an assist on the second goal.

He got an assist on the second goal.

I would that this would be based on more than just counting stats.

It's a fantastic stadium. Apparently, it was designed so that you can still watch the game from the concession lines. The sight lines are perfect. So, if you're in line waiting on your nachos and beer, you can still watch the game.

Buddy of mine lives high in the condo tower across the street from Chase Field and we can watch the games when the roof is open, which is almost always a night game and not blazing hot.

Spring training is coming up, so that'll be fun for 2 or 3 games.

Golfing out here is some of the top of the top in the world. These are world-class courses out here. And they are absolutely beautiful. The desert is very enchanting. Hot but enchanting. If you can stand the heat, these courses are cheap. During the cooler months are all of those big tournaments and also expensive tee times. You can play, but you're gonna pay.

Sorry for the OT, y'all.

I don’t know what happened for sure other than based on reading tweets, it seems like DirectTV customers were the only ones affected.

I eventually was able to watch some of the 3rd period but I’m not sure how soon it got fixed, that was just when I tried tuning again after listening most of the game to the 101 ESPN feed

I'm skeptical about how accurate these player cards really are in terms of judging players' performance, but at least they are fun to look at.

Frustrating game where we were outclassed by a clearer better opponent, but somehow still in the game at the end. We hit two crossbars and that first goal against was brutal. Crap play by Fowler and pretty soft one from Hofer.

I guess the good news is the Schenn line keeps playing well and Thomas showed signs of his usual dominant self. Other than that, meh
