Half-Assed GDT: Caps Blues: Well Well Well, We Meet Again.

[Robb_K]

Nice sliding save by Binnington to keep the 2-goal lead for the Blues.

 

[Ted Hoffman]

I wonder how many 500g scorers aren’t in the HOF

Besides Walt, Pat Verbeek immediately came to mind.

The others not in, who are HHOF eligible: Jeremy Roenick, Petr Bondra.

Jagr is still playing, so he's not eligible.
Marleau is first eligible on the 2024 ballot.
Ovechkin, Crosby and Stamkos are obviously not eligible since they're playing.

 

[Robb_K]

Nice kill by The Blues!

Walker going down to tank Ovys slapshot. If Walker was just 6 inches taller he would be everything you want in a fourth liner.

buchy got drilled

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Good on Kessel to not hesitate to respond

I wonder how many 500g scorers aren’t in the HOF

Bondra - 1081 games, 503G, 825p
Roenick - 1363 games, 512G, 1216p
Verbeek - 1424 games, 522G, 1062p
Tkachuk - 1201 games, 528g, 1065p
Marleau - 1779 games, 566G, 1197p, will be eligible at end of this season
Jagr - 1733 games, 766 G, 1921p, eligibility issues as he keeps playing games for the Czech teams he owns.

Stamkos, Crosby and Ovechkin are still playing. So thats 4 players with over 500 goals who are eligible and not in the hall.

Tkachuk has a silver and gold internationally. He never won NHL hardward, neither a cup nor a major award. So that may be holding him back. There are also only 15 American born players according to TSN, so that could be held against him and Roenick.

 

[Robb_K]

An okay period by The Blues, adding to their lead, up to 2 goals. Good thing Binnington is playing so well. I hope he'll continue to keep The Caps off the scoreboard. I hope Kessell and Buchnevich aren't hurt. I'd like to see The blues come out in The 3rd playing tough and win the game going away.

 

[Linkens Mastery]

Hoping that isn't a concussion for Buch, if so we are about to get even thinner.

 

[Blueston]

that pass from schenn to spring faulk late in 2nd was one of nicest passes i've ever seen from him.

 

[joe galiba]

Faulk looks like he can actually skate for the first time since coming back

 

[Blueston]

so glad we came out with nice effort tonight. always hate when a club honors someone(s) at game and home team lays an egg.

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

nice shift

 

[Mike Liut]

Both of these teams scream mediocre to me

 

[Snubbed4Vezina]

Both of these teams scream mediocre to me

Accurate. Not the most exciting teams to watch, that's for sure.

 

[Blueston]

it's funny, we are much better team when we play marco over peru and when faulk can actually skate. who'da thunk it?

 

[Linkens Mastery]

Both of these teams scream mediocre to me

Because they are

 

[Blueston]

Both of these teams scream mediocre to me

i think you're being generous.

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

lets get 1 here

 

[Linkens Mastery]

Wow we got another PP goal.

 

[Snubbed4Vezina]

PP goals, so hot right now.

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

hell yeah / lets go

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Scoring everything except 5v5 tonight

[Snubbed4Vezina]
