Jason Millen: As some speculated, Phoenix Copley to make his NHL debut in net As some speculated, Phoenix Copley to make his NHL debut in net

still cant believe we got Oshie for a 3rd liner on a 1 yr deal and our 3rd best goalie prospect behind Samsanov and Vicacek

Is Copley on a 2 way contract or are we going to lose him to waivers when he is sent down? I really don't see us carrying 3 goalies. Which also leads me to the question how did we lose hunt? Was it due to us sending him back to the ahl and the waiver process? We still had the option of keeping him up and a healthy scratch right?

According to Capfriendly.com he is waiver exempt.

Hunt had to clear waivers because he was up here for more than 30 days.

thought he had played before in the NHL, oh well i am wrong. good 2 periods. lets take this game in the 3rd

why did we send him down though? we had room to keep him up. guess more playing time cause he would have been a healthy scratch more often than not

jake allen is terrible

blew up my fantasy pool over the last month

We activated Bortuzo or Gunnarson from IR

I didn't manage to get Jake in my league this year, I did grab Varlamov though.

wow what a let down. played well in the 2nd but we couldn't beat Pavelec. Not a bad job by Copley. defensive breakdowns lead to goals against.

Tarasenko has vanished. where are our goal scorers? this team right now is in turmoil, i have faith they can turn it around. just hope it happens very soon. Maybe against Pittsburgh on tuesday

You realize he hit 2 posts and set up at least 3 glorious chances that weren't finished by his teammates?

I thought he played much better than he had the last week or so. The defense has been atrocious, I'm more concerned about that than Tarasenko.

last time i said something about him he went on a streak. just saying he's been quite for a while now. he had a couple of good looks that hit posts and set up some nice plays yes.

this team overall disappoints me at the time. Never know what team is going to show up at any time. Dominating 2nd followed by a lackluster start to the 3rd. i am tired of this team losing. Maybe Petro was not the right choice for captain. someone needs to kick this team in their collective asses and right the ship.

Fire Hitch and Yeo and pick up Julien if it were only that easy

Jake Allen has to go or this team will never make it past the 1st round!!!!

He is horrible wish we could get Elliott back

On the outside looking in, have to wonder why there isn't talk about firing your GM. A lot of bad decisions/trades.

Depending on how this season continues to play out - i think this will become more of a talking point in the offseason.

Especially if he pulls a Pleau like move and is unable to get value for Shattenkirk before he walks on his own.



The question i have for the present is: If the Blues have another bad loss at Pittsburgh - will this trigger a coaching change?

It should

This season is getting away from them pretty quickly with Chicago Minny and Nashville now winning

Blues are going to struggle to make the playoffs and will likely be a wild card and hopefully they can avoid playing Minnesota or Chicago in round 1

Playing in the pacific playoffs might be the best bet

I have no idea what we have been watching over the last 6 weeks but its not good

Uh....no. Elliot is Jake's equal in futility.

I think we miss Brad Shaw more than we realize.
