Any guess would have good odds since there are so few Blues fans on here.

Nice write up man.


Finally a decent effort and they were rewarded for it. Still a lot of work needed, such as clearing the front of the net.


When Tarasenko tried to pass the puck back to Lehtera I was thinking man here we go again. He should have been thinking shot the whole way. That could have opened the door for the coyotes. the coyotes are not that bad.

Too many bad penalties bu the Blues, except the last one, was kind of nonsensical.

Magnus played well and made a great play.

Fabbri looked better in this game but he is still just a bit over matched. I keep flinching thinking he is about to receive a hit that ends his career. I hope he goes and plays in the WJC.

Reaves looked a bit quicker out there. There was more stops and starts and more holding the line. More throwing the puck at the net and crashing it.

Lindbohm looked good. He easily is our second best left dman and the third best is playing in the ahl. Gunnarsson served some meatballs tonight.

Thanks for the commentary. Missed the game again tonight.

This MPS interview is great....Panger asked about seeing Tarasenko...

MPS - Yeah I kind of looked before I got the puck and he was screaming before I got the puck as well. he wanted that puck.

Pang - How loud was he screaming?

MPS - It was Russian but it was fine I heard him.

Was busy tonight, made it home for the 3rd period. Great pass from Lehtera to set up shatty's goal. The 1st game this season where Hitchcock did not shuffle the lines at all??? Wow Finally.

Hopefully the injury to Ott is not career threatening. I know i give the guy poop, but more so it was Hitch's use of him. Ott as a 4th liner/pk has never bothered me as long as he was not out there injuring people with stupid hits and taking bad penalties.

The 2nd and 3rd periods it says we outshot the Coyotes. When is the last period that we actually outshot the opponent before tonight. I think it might take going back quite a few games.

Hopefully this is a step in the right direction. When Tarasenko did not shoot that puck………...

There is still a tendency to look for that beautiful goal. TAKE THE DAMN SHOT!!!!!!

I was going to point out the same thing. For once, the coach stopped trying to be "cute" and left all of the line combinations the same as well as the D-pairings.

First game all year he's done that.

And a very good all around effort last night, at least for the last 50 minutes of the game.

It took a bit for them to come around

I think there is a mental game going on where they expect the lines to be shuffled and when he left them alone they went out and Played hockey

hopefully he sticks with this strategy

I'm not 100% sure but I would guess it is anchors like how they repaired my torn labrum.

"After identification and neurolysis of the sciatic nerve, transosseous tendon reinsertion to the pelvis is performed with three or four metal or resorbable suture anchors."

You can watch it on you tube if you want. I watched my shoulder procedure before I had it done. That alone might tell you I am a goalie, lol.

Whatever they use, I hope it works better than the Super Glue I used to try and repair my coffee mug.

That ended badly.

Yes, this sounds right. My brother completely ripped off his hamstring in a water skiing fall, and had to have surgery to get it reattached to his butt.



He said it was really painful, which I don't doubt. And with his surgery he had a screw(s) or something inserted and then the muscle was reattached that way. Was several years ago.

You should get the stuff on the commercial where they put anything back together with some special bonding done with a light.

They can cut a boat in half and then with this magic substance bond it back together. Worked get in the commercial! And I think they even fixed a mug or pitcher too, so it will work.

And if you call now, you can get a second set for only the shipping and processing fee!

But my glue held up that guy with the hard had on the steel girder!!!!

Come to think if it, I haven't seen that guy in quite a few years. I fear he may have met with an untimely glue failure as well.

R.I.P. Favorite coffee mug.......
