GDT: 11/2/13 - 7:00PM EDT - St. Louis VS Tampa Bay

[DFC]

Congrats to Barbs.

 

[dbieon12]

Still can't convince me that Matt Carle is worth 25% of his contract.

He is garbage.

 

[Necropolis]

****tt...

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

poor play.

 

[Fred Murtz]

Alex Killorn wrist shot goal 1-1

[Necropolis]

What a rocket that was.

 

[DFC]

Whatever Barbs might lack, the kid has some speed.

 

[snowden]

I love how Bishop is extra careful when our guys get near him with the puck now, putting his stick down and getting in position.

 

[DFC]

Malone looks pretty good anywhere but the top line.

 

[The Macho King]

Have I ever said how much I love Stamkos?

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Bugsy, I like you sticking up for Stamkos, but that was dumb.

 

[DFC]

Halak has made some sensational saves tonight.

 

[Ricebox]

That power play was disgusting, we had 40 seconds in the zone, hopefully this PK makes up for it.

 

[Bolts265]

Great save Bish!

 

[Bolts265]

Gotta get some wood on it Victor.

That was no where near a penalty. Backes had the puck, he got checked. Ref put his hand up for a legal check...

That's the definition of a soft call.

The guy who's doing the intermission show on Lightning radio (his name currently escapes me) highlighted the Blues 2nd goal by their "Their Schwartz is bigger than ours."

Spaceballs reference? I love it! The Blues need to remember there is two sides to every Schwartz though...

Agreed. Looked like the ref called what he thought was about to happen rather than what actually happened.

All in all? Bolts are showing once again they can compete with the top teams in the league. Even if they lose, it's hard not to be optimistic. The only team that's really outclassed the Bolts this year has been the Bruins, and maybe the Hawks (but we got points anyway). That's a long, long, LONG way from last year.

Matt Sammon I think.

 

[2MinutesforGiraffing]

We're playing good hockey out there. No matter what happens, if we keep this level of effort up, I'm OK with it.

Though I hate the Leafs, so let's just pass them already.

 

[CarpeNoctem]

Killer has been a monster. Keep it up, boyo!

They credited Drouin with another assist. That's another 3 point game (so far). Kid's really heating up.

 

[Kusic]

Hope at least for one point tonight. We deserve it.
