GDT: Game #25 | St. Louis Blues vs Anaheim Ducks | Berglund is Back Edition!

[mk80]

Maybe we can put on some USA jerseys in the intermission and come back for the 3rd period and win?

This game is very frustrating. But an 82 game season is long, and no team can play hard every game. I just don't like to see them self destruct, especially at home.

 

[Spektre]

Berglund is the ultimate cooler. William H Macy played Berglund in one of his movies

 

[mw2noobbuster]

This is his 4th game back after an ankle fracture which essentially wiped out his entire pre-season and regular season to date.

I'm not sure why anyone would expect him to look particularly good at this point.

Can only hope he improves. Don't think sticking him on the top pairing 2 games back is the best way to ease him in, though.

 

[Celtic Note]

JBo will be valuable eventually as a shutdown guy. But his offensive game has bottomed out. He needs less time with Petro as they don’t click at both ends of the ice, just the D end. I think his offensive game needs more time against lesser competition.

Eddy and Petro works just fine.

Try Bo and Parayko together for a bit.

Uuuuugly

Question should be why do Blues always look bad after being off several days? You would think with rest and coaching to review incoming team they would be better. We seem to be better on b2b games with no rest and no prep! Why do we seem to come out slow on home ice? Is this a coaching problem, like our special teams play?

Can only hope he improves. Don't think sticking him on the top pairing 2 games back is the best way to ease him in, though.

<shrug> He played 19, 18, and 15 minutes his first three games back. He might have been playing with Pietrangelo a lot, but he was obviously being managed in terms of situational use and overall exposure.

Regardless, I don't think his play/usage is a significant reason why the Blues have stunk up two of the last three games.

Trying out my new Blues hoodie tonight. Hopefully it can start its career 1-0

I am going to burn this hoodie, bad juju.

 

[KirkOut]

some of these icings...

 

[Mike Liut]

Looks like a lot of Blues are playing with the wrong handed stick

 

[TarasenkosForearm]

When the refs have let the extra stick work go and the subtle interference go, it has spelt losses for us. That is a bad sign, because the playoffs will be that way if prior years are indicative. We are a skill team with skilled D.

 

[Oberyn]

Schenn just needs to stop touching the puck with his hand altogether

 

[hullderko]

Another snoozer... 3min gone in the 3rd, and it's the same look as the 1st. Ducks playing a firm game... we got nothing in response.

 

[Oberyn]

Hopefully we score a goal, i don't like being shutout

 

[Spektre]

Wooooooo!!!!!! Did everyone see that clear by Berglund???!!!! Not many forwards could pull that off

 

[mk80]

At this point I'm just watching because there's nothing better on

 

[2 Minute Minor]

I like Blais’ decision-making, but he’s playing the game too slow right now. Hopefully he adjusts with some time. He could be a good complimentary player.

Allen is finding it hard to post a save percentage over .900 in recent games.

 

[Captain Creampuff]

Feels like we are always attacking. Their goalie is making the simple saves that he needs to, while ours is giving out rebounds to wide open nets left and right.

 

[Spektre]

Blues lose to half an NHL roster

 

[TarasenkosForearm]

f*** me the Ducks are boring.

 

[Mike Liut]

Blues lose to half an NHL roster

A lot of times those type of players are dangerous. They come to play and try to earn spots.

 

[carter333167]

Dunn's bank passes are impressive.

 

[TarasenkosForearm]

Oh yay.
