Half-Assed GDT: STL @ DAL

[Mike Liut]

Did Mikkola play after that hit?

 

[A Real Barn Burner]

Glad I was here for the good period! In all seriousness this team is playing well hope Chief makes the right call on who from Springfield we need to keep playing this way!

Let’s Go Blues!

 

[AjaxManifesto]

I think our AHL goalies play is giving Binnington and Husso the time they need to make sure they're ready. This is a crazy luxury that I can't believe we have atm.

Excellent goalie depth. Very impressive group.

 

[Linkens Mastery]

Parayko-Faulk-Bortuzzo is a great RD Corp.

 

[Mike Liut]

I was a bit nervous about it, but he pairs well with Bortuzzo

I think the d pairings are set now

 

[Robb_K]

Blues win a much-needed, well-played road game at Dallas! And next game, The Blues get back another needed regular. Things are looking very good.

 

[Blanick]

Colt55 the player of the game. No doubter there. I have really like our defense as a whole the last few weeks. Doing a real good job of limiting second chances.

Did Mikkola play after that hit?

No, but he looked fine on the post-game celi.

 

[Stupendous Yappi]

I joke sometimes about not knowing the names of some of the players on the Blues at the beginning of the season, but in reality I know them all. But now, I literally don't know some of these guys at all. It just doesn't seem to matter, they keep accumulating points and winning a lot of games.

No point in complaining that the Blues didn't get shut down due to Covid. (The real mistake was not putting Perron on LTIR immediately.) If they're going to win games anyway, let's keep playing!

Lindgren for me

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

great win .. with a backup of a backup in nets .... other teams would be stupid to pass on him again

 

[Blanick]

3 Stars

#1 Parayko
#2 Faulk
#3 Tarasenko

but this was a complete team effort tonight. Solid W for the boys.

Like a nice Reisling with a rich panna cotta.

 

[Mike Liut]

Mikkola is the big, physical LD we were looking for to pair with Parayko. They are a perfect fit.

 

[BlueMed]

Parayko-Faulk-Bortuzzo is a great RD Corp.

Agreed. Let's trade Perunovich. I'm not down on him or anything. I just think we can get some good value out of him.

Mikkola is Jbo-lite.

 

[Mike Liut]

We just don’t have the depth on D to trade anybody imo.

Lindgren is going to earn himself an NHL paycheck for the rest of the year with these performances. No chance he makes it through waivers again. Good for him.

 

[BlueMed]

We just don’t have the depth on D to trade anybody imo.

At the moment we do not, but even moving into the next off season, I don't want to hold a prospect with Perunovich's potential as our 7th D either. That value needs to be traded.

 

[Linkens Mastery]

It wouldn't surprise me to see them send Perunovich and Kostin down when they are healthy. Kostin for conditioning Perunovich for playing time.

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

Agreed. Let's trade Perunovich. I'm not down on him or anything. I just think we can get some good value out of him.

he does have value (and hype) other options as well in the system

 

[BlueSeal]

We just don’t have the depth on D to trade anybody imo.

We're heavily deep in goalie depth though. Not saying we need to do anything, right now it looks like our answers are all in-system, so why trade anything if we don't need to? Our future has never been brighter.

Solid victory from a team that refuses to give up no matter who goes down or how short we are. Can't beat that!

 

[Xerloris]

Anyone notice how Lindgrenn makes sure to send rebounds to the corners? He does a very good job of it.

 

[Robb_K]

Come on Dizee. I have love Lindgren as well but come on.

He's right! The battle is between Lindgren and Husso, for back-up. Binnington might have a battle with the back-up winner NEXT year!

 

[BlueMed]

It wouldn't surprise me to see them send Perunovich and Kostin down when they are healthy. Kostin for conditioning Perunovich for playing time.

The thing is, Perunovich only needs playing time from a conditioning point of view. He's already too good for the AHL but also doesn't play the right style we need him to unless Krug can't play.
