Hey man, they took the ring to Mordor, they can do anything.Also nice to see the Krebs contribute to something meaningful on a night when his line was again very active. I'm not sure I like having three hobbits hacking away out there all at once, but if that's working, keep rolling it out there.
The danger miceThey make high danger plays, but don't give up high danger chances. Works for me.
Key plays that they haven't made in a long time. Learning to set up and score goals in the O zoneKrebs makes a great play on the Power goal, obviously. But watch Benson on that play too. He skates right through the crease and draws a man over to shove him out…leaving the side Power shoots into wide open.
Kid knows how to hockey.
The fellowship of the puck?Also nice to see the Krebs contribute to something meaningful on a night when his line was again very active. I'm not sure I like having three hobbits hacking away out there all at once, but if that's working, keep rolling it out there.
Mitts was a grenade. Greenway was slow to make decisions. Cozens was on. Also they rotate center because Cozens takes a lot of faceoffs it seems.At the moment, he's the RW on that line. Perhaps that's their solution - Mitts centering the 2nd line with Cozens shifted to wing - to Quinn being out. It gets weird to think what happens if/when they move Girgensons. Who gets that mucking duty? Do they push someone in from Rochester or do they shuffle someone in from outside?
Also that Mitts line had poor showing tonight. I didn't get to see who they matched up with for two periods, curious if that continues or if they go back to being stronger at 5-on-5 than not like they were after being put together. Could be just a bad matchup night.
He doesn't need this shit so close to retirement, the pension and the gold watch
It's too little too late unless they go on the most miraculous run in history.
The #8 seed right now is on pace for 94 points. To match that we need 36 points in 24 games. That is something like an 18-6-0 record, or maybe 16-4-4. Is it far fetched? Yes, absolutely. Would it be the most miraculous run in history? No, I imagine several teams this year have eclipsed 0.750 point percentage over a 24 game period.
We also have 3 games left vs the Red Wings and 2 games left vs the Lightning, which helps because those are the teams we are chasing.
If UPL continues to play at a Vezina-level it's possible. Goalies are streaky though, so who knows.

Blues went 30-10-5 in 2019A random team going 18-6 at some point during a season isn't miraculous.
This team going 18-6 to close out this particular season where they've had 1x 3 game win streak the entire season? That would take a miracle.
How many teams in history have gone 18-6 down the stretch to jump from 25th to 16th?
So you're saying we need to match or exceed the most miraculous run in history? How does this change what I said originally? Am I taking crazy pills?Blues went 30-10-5 in 2019
You aren’t taking crazy pills, you just aren’t taking into consideration that we traded for a Vezina-caliber goalie over the holiday break. How many teams have done that?So you're saying we need to match or exceed the most miraculous run in history? How does this change what I said originally? Am I taking crazy pills?
Blues went 14-6-4 their final 24 games. And they were already in a playoff position with 24 games to go.
EDIT: The blues went from 13th in points with 24 games remaining to 11th after going 14-6-4.
We need to go 18-6-0 our remaining 24 games.
21-6-0 our final 27 of which we've already played 3
Power is back and humbled by the brysons of the world and seeing his way more detailed yet simple and AGGRESSIVE by watching and not worrying about f ing up due to BACKSTOP.When does Dahlin hit a wall on this 8 games in 11 days stretch? He's playing 30 minutes a game.
Well at New Years in 2019 the Blues were 15-18-4 with 34 PointsSo you're saying we need to match or exceed the most miraculous run in history? How does this change what I said originally? Am I taking crazy pills?
