Ellis (When the creation was new and all the stars shone in their first
splendor, the gods held their assembly in the sky and sang
`Oh, the picture of perfection! the joy unalloyed! '

But one cried of a sudden
- -`It seems that somewhere there is a break in the chain of light
and one of the stars has been lost.'

The golden string of their harp snapped,
their song stopped, and they cried in dismay
- -`Yes, that lost star was the best,
she was the glory of all heavens! '

From that day the search is unceasing for her,
and the cry goes on from one to the other
that in her the world has lost its one joy!

Only in the deepest silence of night the stars smile
and whisper among themselves
- -`Vain is this seeking! unbroken perfection is over all!)

There's a rumor Risto is being benched? So I dropped him. Forward lineup looks like goofy practice experimentation but it's what was reported this morning.

i wonder if Torts will be allowed to bench Fisto for more then the 1 game..

ill be shocked if he sits again tomorow... pleased, but shocked..

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Blues will be on the back half of a B2B, so the Flyers will likely see Greiss. Binnington's between the pipes vs the Clowns tonight.

 

[Angry Hockey Dad]

Binnington is a kook. Didn’t realize the blues were 3-6?

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Is that the Flyers … wearing Cooperalls? ‘It's part of us, let's own it'

With their 2022-23 Reverse Retro jersey, the Flyers are ready to “own” the Cooperalls look again. By Jordan Hall

www.nbcsports.com

The team will feature the Cooperalls and new sweater for the first time Tuesday when it hosts the Blues (7 p.m. ET/NBCSP).​

Credit where credit is due with Tortorella. And he didn't mince words about Ristolainen's play.

At least now we know the bar for reasonable accountability for that player type starts at "league-worst play," which is tragically quite an improvement over AV and Hakstolk

 

[Gert B Frobe]

This is the worst team that has actually ever played in the history of the entire NHL. I'm not watching just going to read a book or maybe watch the masked singer.

Am I doing this right?

It is probably lost in time but I do recall Ilkka Sinisalo sliding on ice unnecessarily and uncontrollably into the net during a pre-season game. It was attributed to the pants. I think it was Bill Barber who cut his pants for better flexibility. That was 40 years ago. Maybe proper alterations have been made since.

 

[deadhead]

Risto will get multiple chances (as will Frost) b/c in a rebuilding year, salvage jobs come at no cost.

But me suspects there's a limit to Torts' patience (see Hodgson, sometimes very limited).

 

[Danko]

Someone gave me free lower level tickets to this and im having trouble convincing myself to go.

 

[04hockey]

blues have lost 7 straight ?? .....hope DESLAURIERS is dressed

Lumping Frost and Risto together is comical.

Well unfortunately they're not wearing them during the game, just warm-ups, so it probably doesn't matter.

Well he's not very good, he doesn't prevent hits or fights, and nobody is afraid of him.

So what's he going to do?

Depends on the book.

How about a winged singer.......Flagstad as Brunhild.......

Fisto in for Zaumla tonight lets go.

Lol, yeah I remember a few Dmen sliding to block shots and continuing all the away across the D zone. IIRC, I believe the Whalers also wore the Cooperalls for a short time.

But, when it comes to bad NHL gear ideas, those pants pale in comparison to Seals owner Charlie Finley’s plan to use white pucks. That would have been interesting to say the least!

Help the Blues snap their losing streak?
