Half-Assed GDT: Blues Sens

[Davimir Tarablad]

Neighbours getting some padding for the Cy Young

 

[Robb_K]

Neighbours gets the empty-netter, The Blues lead 5-2!!!

 

[joe galiba]

bolduc ,dean, kessel and peru all on the ice together

 

[Celtic Note]

Hofer is gonna be real real good

I think he has had a touch of luck on his side tonight, but yeah he has looked like a guy on the rise for years now.

 

[bleedblue1223]

I hope Neighbours goes on a heater and gets 30.

 

[Xerloris]

Easier to like a guy that can handle the puck well over the one who gives you heart palpitations for even the simplest of puck plays.

Don't forget Hofer doesn't spot the other team a goal at the start of every game.

 

[Robb_K]

Nice, solid road win for The Blues. They were in control all the way. They really needed the 2 points. Hope is still hanging on.

Next two games are the biggest games of the year. If they lose either of them It would be best to just throw in the towel, if they win both. They really need to end the season strong to kick Vegas out of the playoffs.

 

[TheOrganist]

And the Vegas game is on ESPN. Sweet. Would be fun if the teams were tied in pts on Monday.

 

[Frenzy31]

Big games against Vegas and Calgary coming up.

 

[tfriede2]

Neighbours is tied for 2nd in goals this year from his draft class. Tied for 9th overall in goals from his draft class for career.

 

[LGB]

I thought Dean made a few nice plays. Hard to stand out when you're on the 4th line. Hopefully he stays in the lineup.

 

[Celtic Note]

Neighbours, Kyrou, Hofer all had really nice games.

Bolduc continues to compete. He has rounded out his game nicely. I just hope he starts to get some points to get his confidence up on offense.

Dean was working hard, which is no surprise. He didn’t do much, but I also wasn’t expecting much.

Parayko had a rough first until his goal and then he turned it up.

Saad showed some bounce in his step.

Kap is such an example of no tool box. He has tools, he has effort, but not much to show for it.

Perunovich looks more steady, but his offense still isn’t coming through. Not sure what isn’t clicking for him.

Im still shocked Kap looked so good in his small sample size w/us last season, and now he's exactly what other fan bases said he would be this season. Just so much meh.

 

[Blueston]

kyrou having a good game in the perfect city to do it in. i hope he gets a hat trick!

they really need to allow us to facepalm a post like this instead of the listed reactions.

 

[Linkens Mastery]

If the Blues can use their 12 mil of cap space this off season to bring in a LHD or a 2nd Line Center that would be great.

I'm trying not to be too greedy. In all Honesty I want to Move Krug as well and get 2 LHD and a 2nd line C. I just don't see many we would want to go after in UFA. Maybe if we can get Lindholm on a cheap deal due to his poor performance this season? Throwing him being Buch and Kyrou might give him some jump. I'm also wondering what the NYR do with Miller or Lindgren as well.

Dizee - Kyrou is useless and a waste of money
Also Dizee - He has enough Value to bring a Top pairing Dman/Top Line Winger from another team.

Agreed, noticed him couple times making good reads and smart plays with the puck. Not sure he will (or should) stay in the lineup when Sundqvist returns, but a very solid showing for his first game!

if adjusted for games played and ice time perunovich would have 35ish points as compared to krug with 34 points, krug leads blues D in points

 

[bleedblue1223]

Perunovich's points/60 during 5v5 is right with Krug. Ideally, we can move Krug and Perunovich can take on the main offensive dman role.

Husso sucks. He has been a dud in Detroit.

Granted, they are not a good defensive team. But Husso has only had one season in the NHL where his GAA was under 3 and his save percentage was above .900.

I certainly expected more out of him than that.

You did? He was no sure thing. I thought when we dealt him he had a pretty low likelihood of becoming a really good / top half of NHL goalies, and wasn't at all guaranteed not to bust. He had a great contract year.

Yes. Obviously while not a sure thing, he was regarded fairly highly as a prospect. Most people on here thought he had a higher ceiling than Binnington for a while. Heck it wasn’t that long ago we still had fans arguing that we traded the wrong goalie. So I think most people expected him to have more than one good season by the time he was almost 30.
