Would Dvo celebrate a hattrick?

Would be a 3vo.

Hayden > Fischer

I know Fischer is trying and playing well, but no one brings to the table what Hayden brings.

you sit one of the useless guys, Fischer or Keller.

Easy choice

That's good. It's a beautiful world. Take a time out for fun.

We might get to see a smile that's it.

Easy choice

He can skate, and he's a thumper. That's it. Not great. Just a thumper. But we desperately have needed one forever.

Fischer sure plays better defense than that, post aged great

He's still young and playing better. Might be a good piece in a trade.

 

[MIGs Dog]

Oh nooooo...we suck again

 

[SniperHF]

I feel like the goals against us so far were largely preventable and while we don't look too bad we should probably be winning this game if not for our derping around in the D zone.

 

[Tom Polakis]

Gross looking like a rookie there.

Fischer has never lost his man.

 

[SniperHF]

Hayton seems to be a hit magnet.

 

[ParisSaintGermain]

Also, Kuemper a lil subpar.

Blues chances have been pretty high quality

 

[ParisSaintGermain]

A lot of elite D have often had mediocre partners. They elevate everyone around them.
If you've got a team where you can pair an upper end#1 with a true #2 you're probably a top 3 cup contender. Or Nashville when their team was stupid lopsided in roster balance

I agree with you, this is why I said right/perfect, not good. It is about finding the right tandem.

Seems to be the theme for the season. It's weird, I'm so used to good defensive play and a goalie bailing us out.

 

[_Del_]

Maybe it's just the mask, but Tocchet has looked like he hates his job this whole game haha

 

[Neighborhood Coyote]

Kessel taking a slash at someone?! Never.

 

[ParisSaintGermain]

Blues chances have been pretty high quality

True. I guess what I meant is that he has not come up with the unexpected save so far in this game.

 

[XX]

3-2 and Phil is out here taking selfish penalties. Test for Tocchet for sure.

 

[Muppet]

Now imagine if Hayton did that instead of Kessel. Hayton would be riding the bench for the rest of the game. Kessel will be right back out there like nothing even happened.

 

[RemoAZ]

Wish our D could hit the net like that.

 

[_Del_]

Hammer just saved a goal

edit: it was Goose!

 

[SniperHF]

Tangent, but I was reading the Phil trade thread again yesterday since POJ has been playing well and I noticed a few things:

1. Most of us were pretty annoyed we included POJ in the deal, we ain't no dummies here
2. One of the things we liked about Phil coming over was his big and entertaining personality.

But doesn't #2 seem kinda ............muted? In comparison to how he used to be anyway. We don't even get to have fun

 

[Tom Polakis]

This team is not going to win many games, but I am encouraged by their play in the offensive zone, which is world's apart from the past few seasons.
