First, wanted to say that since I live in Europe, was watching the game this morning on my streaming service and during the commercials, you can usually still hear Sam, Joe and John talking, whether it's amongst themselves or to production. I usually fast forward during the commercials anyway, but happened to leave it on as the Dancing Larry song came on. As soon as he heard it, Sam said, "Ohhh no, here it is" and Joe goes "It's idiot time!". Just thought that was an interesting behind the scenes tidbit haha.
On to the actual game, we completely dominated in a way we haven't in a long time. Obviously helped by St. Louis looking like ass. Roslovic had a couple of shaky moments in his own zone, but overall, as I expected him to, had a really positive effect on the Mika line with his skating and playmaking ability.
Credit to Jones for playing well. It's a shame he probably doesn't have a future here simply because of the size on defense wins in the playoffs narrative, because I've always valued his poise with the puck. My type o defenseman.
It's really sad that we won't trade Trouba or at least demote him because of MUH HITS.
