Half-Assed GDT: Blues @ Flames 8PM CST on BSMW

[Blueston]

it's not like berube to bench someone an entire period. but miko was special kind of terrible tonight. not that he is normally great but damn. maybe he had injury or illness that caused him to be so ineffective, but he was even worse than dunn was the other night.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

guess who aint starting thursday

DizeeSideburns?

 

[Pizza!Pizza!]

Could Binnington wear his goalie pads and play LD?

 

[JoshFromMO]

This reminded me of that blowout game against the devils a few years ago. There was an ice storm or something so St Louis got the doors blown off them 7-1 in an empty building on the road

 

[Xerloris]

Maybe Bortuzzo can beat the shit out of Mikkola during practice.

 

[Blueston]

shoulda done it during 2nd period tonight.

 

[Linkens Mastery]

shoulda done it during 2nd period tonight.

Binnington should beat the breaks off Bortuzzo first

 

[TheDizee]

DizeeSideburns?

id stop more pucks than than binner has this year and they wont have to pay me 6 million a year to do it. a year supply of taco bell will be enough.

berube said miko isn't hurt. he had tough night so he sat him for 3rd.

[TheDizee]

the only positive tonight is nobody got hurt.

lets rebound thursday

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

Maybe Bortuzzo can beat the shit out of Mikkola during practice.

this made me laugh ..

 

[MortiestOfMortys]

It really is remarkable to have 2 goalies above .940 on the season and neither of them are our starter lol. We even made Gillies look like a competent goalie (no offense to him). And yet for whatever reason, we just aren’t clicking with Binner anymore. Same thing happened during the Cup run season: for some reason, we just play better in front of people not named Binnington. Really wish we hadn’t given him that fatty contract

 

[President Skroob]

Blues found a way to stay healthy and rested during road trips.

Don’t try.

 

[Hinterland]

Somebody said this was the wrong game to start Binnington because the difficulty level is too high (trap game) and that Berube should stick with Husso until the break. Was the try worth ruining Binnington's confidence when not starting him would have given him time to work on his basics in practice? I don't think so. It was always gonna end like this.

End? End what? Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

 

[Ranksu]

End? End what? Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

Wait what did Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

If that's what they told you in school you should probably inform your parents and your school director in order to find a better history teacher

If there isn't a team brawl during the next practice, then clearly this team has no heart.

Nah, I still disagree with you. What about Husso's confidence? What good would it have done to throw him out there tonight? As I said before the game, if the Blues played as uninspired as they did against Vancouver then it didn't matter who was in goal.

Oh well, I'm not gonna be that concerned unless they come out looking like this on Thursday. Maybe they were just bummed about having to go to Canada as Faulk said before the trip. Said they wanted to just get it over with and come home and that's pretty much how the team played. Kind of amazing that Faulk managed an even +/- while playing over 23 mins. Wondering if Mikkola spent the night in a Calgary hospital with 3rd degree burns...

 

[execwrite1]

Clearly, this is now Husso's team.

Next year will have to be sorted out in the off-season.

 

[jura]

chief sums it up!

You haven’t seen Animal House - see clip above.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

I’m not that concerned either.

It's obvious that some people on this forum have spent their entire lives in their basement and have never played a team sport in their lives...
