GDT: WCSF - Game 2| Blues @ Avs| 8:30, TNT|

[CoMoBlues]

Wasn't that Brendan Burke announcing the game tonight on TNT?

He was the Peoria Rivermen pbp guy when they were the Blues' AHL affiliate.

Yup! Called a Jaden Schwartz hat trick in the 2019 playoffs. Let’s keep him around!

 

[Louie the Blue]

remind me how many 1sts we need to add to him to deal him?

I don't get this board's obsession with saying he's Andrew Hammond.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

Really liked Borts and Miko tonight.

Miko was patient with the puck and made sure to advance far enough so he could chip it even further and avoid icing.

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

Each of 3 finalists is deserving though.

we have played with how many goalies ? and played 11/7 for how long ?

Great win. Took care of business in Colorado, now to treat the home ice fans to a show.

 

[Klank Loves You]

I know he isn't showing up in the stat sheet, but Buch had a strong defensive game. He is one of the few forwards that is able to keep up with Colorado's speed, and is a good fit for RoR and Perron this series.

he been good on PK. just needs to get things going offensively

 

[ChillWill1]

Toro’s been the third/fourth best forward this series. ROR,Perron, Toro, Kyrou. I can see him scoring game 3 or game 4 guys.

I like to say Mikkola is the best going away present Jarmo could have ever given us.

 

[Bye Bye Blueston]

We really have great coaching staff. They are great at making adjustments. Berube sets awesome tone, but it’s not just him. I expect Monty will have chance at another head job this off-season if he wants it. Ott could be in mix some places too.

He had 2 assists on the first two goals tonight though

He's one of my faves.

He’s been our best defensive winger all year.

 

[HighNote]

Toro’s been the third/fourth best forward this series. ROR,Perron, Toro, Kyrou. I can see him scoring game 3 or game 4 guys.

He's been great, but I still have guys like Thomas and Buchnevich ahead of him. Both of those guys have quietly been solid despite not getting on the scoresheet. And I wouldn't be surprised if he potted one in game 3, I get that feeling as well.

Yes! The term "adjustment" has been buzzy this playoffs, but the Blues' coaching staff are demonstrating a flexibility that I haven't seen in a while.

Berube is deserving too. But Bruno got job when q was forced out and led the. To President trophy. Rangers had huge turnaround, flames too.

 

[Oberyn]

Huge win for the Blues, and the fact that it wasn't a game where they had to rely solely on Binnington is a big plus. The defense was much more on top of it tonight and the Blues had some good possession time in the offensive zone. I thought the team did a great job at nullifying Makar for the most part.

Absolutely. Binny was really good, but he didn’t have to face many high danger shots. Our team d was outstanding.

 

[Spektre]

Faulk is easily the best D for the Blues

 

[Louie the Blue]

@TheDizee I will say this:

Switching goalies tonight would've been the wrong move like you claimed on Tuesday to do. Will you admit that?

 

[Linkens Mastery]

Really liked Borts and Miko tonight.

Mikkola is currently making me eat my "Mikkola gets eaten alive by playoff teams" comment. Hope he continues.

 

[Pizza!Pizza!]

I love how even after game 1 all the avs fans and pundits thought the avs were still contenders. shelling a team for over 60mins straight and barely squeaking out a 1 goal game is not the mark of a contender.

Blues are a much deeper team than the avs and it showed tonight. My Blues in 6 prediction is still looking good, I expect the avs to win game 5 out of desperation.

Still, I hope all the Blues whiners that wanted Binnington waived or traded earlier this season (Dizee) remember to spit out the beak before swallowing their mouthfuls of crow.

 

[Joshuar56]

Was too nervous to post during the game, but HUGE win tonight, need to keep the momentum going on St. Louis.

 

[Louie the Blue]

Husso could be .948.

i dont like to play what ifs. right now goalie is playing very well. if he continues, we will win this series.

There's no way Husso would be anywhere close to a .948 based off of how the team played in Games 2 and 3 vs the Wild, even if he performed well hypothetically the rest of that series and played like Binnington Game 1 vs Avs.
