GDT: 2/7/19 - 7:30PM EDT - St. Louis vs Tampa Bay

[The Macho King]

Coburn took an awful angle, but man that's another ticky tack call.

 

[Lord Stan 2020]

gawd

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

I realize the Bolts PK has been freakin AWESOME tonight, but errrr, they need to cut out this march to the box now.
Let's not push things, eh?

 

[DistantThunderRep]

These calls are like nothing we've seen in the past few games. Did the league decide it's going to be the beginning of the season again?

 

[BowDownToVasilevskiy]

Great kills

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

Freakin Bouwmeester....

Trying to bully the much smaller TyJo.
Tyler wasn't having any of it...good for him.

Worry about your PP work, ya slug, Bouw.

 

[TeslaCoilFan]

Great kills, but damn Mac, can you please not shoot wide with such a glorious chance? That's Hedman's schtick.

 

[The Macho King]

So Palat must have some blackmail on Coop to have stayed with Stamkos for so long.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Nobody wants to freaking shoot the puck.

 

[DistantThunderRep]

f*** just shoot at the f***ing net. What the f***.

 

[The Macho King]

Passes are off. Shots are off. Decisions are off.

 

[The Macho King]

**** just shoot at the ****ing net. What the ****.

Seriously. Make the rookie make a save.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Drink anytime they skate it in and do a circle around the faceoff circle. You'd be dead.

 

[These Are The Days]

Anything but shoot the puck.....so help me Kucherov you're trying to outdo Point

Probably 10 times vs Vegas at least last game

Yea...I like that the Bolts generally play as a team and try to anticipate one another, but there ARE times when being selfish is warranted.
Our boys just need to put more pucks nets. Bottom line.

St. Louis has put good pressure on Vasy and the defense, but for all that work, it is still scoreless, and the Blues have looked far from airtight on their own defense.
TB just needs to loosen them up a bit more by firing some heat towards Binnington more often.

 

[Hockey4Life91]

It is February. So who cares. But man, we are OUT of sync. Move Palat down - he’s worthless right now. But pretty much everyone else is equally ineffective. Kuch has to take that backhand on the 2 on 1. Remember the back hand snipe he had top shelf last year? Truly inexcusable not to take a shot on a 2 on 1. The killer instinct is lacking right now.

PS. Let’s retire these horrendous jerseys.

 

[SRQKiter]

If we're going with new unis let's put the real name of the team on them, the TB Vasilevskiys.

 

[God King Fudge]

I know I'm in the minority of fans and most of you really don't care, but I just refuse to believe that there's no correlation between how they tend to play in the second half of seasons and how they end up missing in the playoffs.

 

[RussianGuyovich]

Nice of the offense to dry up a little earlier this year and temper expectations.

 

[The Macho King]

Serge/Coburn has been awful again.

 

[TeslaCoilFan]

Nice of the offense to dry up a little earlier this year and temper expectations.

Eh, we didn't want the cursed President's Trophy anyway.

 

[RegularSznAllStars]

I know I'm in the minority of fans and most of you really don't care, but I just refuse to believe that there's no correlation between how they tend to play in the second half of seasons and how they end up missing in the playoffs.

I mean, how many times does the hottest team in the second half seem to win the cup? Happens all the time.

 

[SRQKiter]

Serge/Coburn has been awful again.

More Serge IMO.

 

[The Macho King]

More Serge IMO.

Nah Coburn has been shit too.
